FOUR REASONS WHY YOU NEED A WEBSITE

If you are here reading this post it means that you either need someone to convince you, or looking for more support to build a website for your business.

You probably noticed by now that our world is becoming more digitalized every day.  These days anyone can create content, share information and connect globally. According to Statista, the number of active internet users worldwide was over 4.1 billion in July 2018.

This is probably the most obvious sign for you to have a web presence considering that it amounts to more than half of the world population as I’m writing this post.

So, in an attempt to add to this reasoning I would like to share the four reasons why I believe having a website is crucial.

1. Get recognized

In this day and age having your business on yellow pages is like trying to travel overseas without a passport. You can picture search engines such as Google as an international flight, and your web page as your passport, without a passport, no one is going to let you board that plane. Do you want to miss your flight or get on board with other passengers? I thought so!

2. Engage timelessly

In traditional days of conducting business people could only transact during business hours. Now, thanks to the Internet, you could drive traffic to your website, sell your products and services,  and also connect with customers 24/7 anywhere in the world. This is the ultimate weapon for any business to establish a happy, returning client base. The best part of this is that you can do this YOUR WAY  – time to get creative people!

3. Market through your website at a low-cost

Look at major brands such as McDonald’s, Adidas, and Microsoft, they all offer different products. However, they have one thing in common, and that is a professional website. On that page, they will list their latest products, services, and offer promotions. They will also ask you to sign up for their newsletter so that they can keep you updated and happy. You may think this is very costly, in fact, it is not! It can be as easy as putting up a banner or a link to a special offer on your website.

4. You don’t need to be a developer to create beautiful web pages

There would be a number of people telling you that you have to learn web development to build websites, but they are not entirely correct. After all, it is not for everyone to become a web developer. It requires hard work, hours and hours of practice and improvement. Instead, you could pour that energy into building your brand and growing your business. You could create a professional-looking website for your business using WordPress within hours ALL BY YOURSELF for a very low cost.
