Web Sites

Why Should My Business Have a Web Site?

There are many reasons why any business should have a web site. Here are just a few:

To provide basic information that establishes credibility - just as a listing in the Yellow Pages shows you are serious about your business, having your own company domain reinforces your legitimacy as a serious business. (According to IntelliQuest 68% of US web users shop online.)
Customers explore alternatives over the web before buying products or services.
Your site is basically a full color ad, and keeps you business “open” 24/7.
To reach your local market. The web reaches the world, but customers shop it for local information as well.
To reach specialized or international markets.

To give you an idea of the effectiveness of a web site, a customer needed to purchase flowers for a memorial service in another town. Who got the business? Of the 2 shops in town, it was the one with their own website.
