Do you need your own website?

A website can give your clients and customers one more opportunity to learn more about your product or services.

You don't need to sell a tangible item or a service on the website for it to have value to your business and those with whom you do business.

A small, two or three page website need offer little more than contact information and a brief history of your business or declare your mission statement for that website to have value for you and customers. The customers who need last minute contact information can quickly find it at your website. You have little idea just exactly who would benefit from your business information. So, it is difficult to send ads to everyone or be certain they will see your information in other media which would be more expensive than a website.

You can buy a domain that reflects your business name or type for a very reasonable price in one year to ten year increments. Hosting packages which offer ample bandwidth for your business needs are very inexpensive; much less than the cost of many other media forms.

Many hosting packages offer a 'do-it-yourself' program for building crisp, attractive websites. You can use templates and add pictures or more pages as you need to.

After you have your website designed and online, the search engines will be finding you so that other customers and clients who search for terms or types that fit your business can find your pages. The easiest way to make sure your website appeals to the search engines and will show up in searches is to have realistic and appropriate content. The search engines have equipment and software that reads your information and connects your website with the search terms that a user types in the search blank.

There are more assertive things you can do, but we will begin with the items mentioned and let you have a chance to savor them. As you become more comfortable with a web presence, you can do many more things that help your business and people who want to know more about you.
