Why have a website?

There are many reasons why it is becoming more and more important to have a website, such as;
  • Your business is open 24/7, 365 days of the year
    Unlike normal office hours, your website is running all the time. This makes it available at all hours, meaning it is much more convenient to find out more about your business to those who operate outside such typical office hours.
  • It can be updated at any time
    Unlike brochures, your website can be amended at any time. This will save you a great deal of money on printing and distribution costs.
  • Improve customer service
    By providing FAQs and contact forms, your customers can get answers to questions almost immediately. You can also provide useful or important downloadable documents.
  • Present a professional image
    For a small business, a well-designed web site is a great way of instilling confidence and looking bigger than you actually are. In this day in age, customers assume that you already have a website. By now, your primary competitors probably already have a presence on the Internet. If they do, keep up with them and find ways to make yours better.
  • It can increase the amount of business you do
    If you don't currently have a website you are almost certainly losing business right now! If you do have a website that is out of date, difficult to navigate around, is not optimised for search engines, or simply its design creates the wrong perception of your business, you are losing business!
