Virtually all businesses now see having a website as critical to their existence. Some see it as a ‘shop window’, open for browsing 24 hours a day; others see it as an important part of their marketing strategy for selling products and services directly online.
What everyone agrees is that your business website should look professional, attractive, easy to use and informative for the visitor. No surprises there then!
Expectations for any new website run high, but many miss the most important point … that the site is hardly ever likely to be seen by anyone, without some serious consideration as to how to attract visitors/traffic. The reality is that a site is a total waste of money without a strategy for marketing it.
Consider, at the last count, there were some 200m sites out there in the ether, all competing for the attention of the 2bn users online. How do you hope to attract these and what have you done about it?
Attracting business through you site needs a strategy, effort and, yes, budget! After all, you wouldn’t rent, fit-out and stock a shop on the high street, then keep the doors locked and never advertise would you?
