You know most of your your friends have done it. You've thought about doing it too, but you weren't sure how it would benefit your business or organization, but now's the time to secure a web presence for your business. A profile on a social media site such as Instagram, Facebook or Linked In just doesn't cut it on many levels - a) it is never yours and can be shut down any day without any notice! It is great to use one, but don't put your eggs in one basket! Second of all, features are limited and you don't have control on your viewership! These packages might be just the thing you need now!
Here are ten things a website can do for your business:
1. Widens your potential customer base to the entire online world. You are no longer limited to local people picking up a phone book or reading your print ads in the newspaper. Anyone with internet access becomes a potential customer.
2. Create an interactive environment for your customers. Your site can have a place for comments or questions or even a survey asking what you're customers would like to see added to your page or to your product line.
3. Your Website is Open 24/7. Your potential customers don't have to wait until office hours to call you. They don't have to wait for a return call if you're on another line. By searching your website they can find out exactly what you're offering to do for them, read your companies mission statement, see your answers to the FAQ section, and find out where to email or call your for more information.
4. Make you an expert. People go online to find out information from someone who knows what they're talking about. You can be that expert if you provide current, helpful information. It increases your credibility.
5. Customers EXPECT businesses to have a website.
6. Facilitates your work flow by automating bits and pieces. People who have not yet met you need to like and trust you before they even consider contacting you. Having a website that displays who you’ve worked with, your potential, capabilities etc will bridge this gap for you.
7. Sell your services night and day. Your page can be set up to directly process orders online. You get up in the morning to find out you made sales while you were sleeping. Create a Shop or Product/Service Display Now!
8. Explain your service in as much or as little detail as your potential customer wants. Some people want to skim web pages and read headlines or lists. Other people want all the details. A good webpage is set up to make both happy.
9. Cheaper than Yellowpages - Increases awareness of your business to people who normally wouldn't seek you out. People might not scan the phone book, but they do scan the web. And if your webpage is set up properly and optimized with the right content, you can pull in customers who weren't even aware they needed your service. Until your webpage explains to them why they do!. Check out prices now! Starting from just € 499
10. Distinguishes you from your competition. The right web designer will ask you about the things that sets you apart from the rest so that he can emphasize this to your clients – helping them take the decision in favor before you have even met them or as a final nudge.
