Do you need a website—really?
There is an expectation from the public that businesses and organizations will have a website. If the public are your potential clients or customers, then the answer is absolutely.
Even if it only supplies basic information and a means of getting in contact with you, your business needs one. A website has become nearly as essential as a telephone.
Apart from fulfilling the public's expectations, a website will also help your business increase profits. Increasingly, people search the web and internet rather than the Yellow Pages when looking for a service or product.
More important, if they don't find your business represented, they will find your competitor's website.
What can a website do for me or my Company?
A website is a great addition to all your marketing materials, from business cards to radio or television commercials.
Expand the effect of a print ad. With the small addition of a website address to an ad—even a very small one—means that anyone intrigued by the ad can immediately access much greater amounts of information about your company. The effect is heightened when you add suitable photos to your site.
Save time. Much company time and effort is often wasted by repeatedly providing the same information either by phone or in person. Have a section on your site that provides answers to frequently asked questions.
Make it easier for potential customers to find you. Include a detailed road map on your site, and make things even easier for customers by indicating parking lots and bus stops.
Will a website make my business more successful?
A website can be a very inexpensive form of advertising. You can offer your audience much more information about your products or services on a website than in any other form of advertising, and it can be changed at a moment's notice.
Just think about how much work it takes to make one small change in a regular advertising campaign. There's the time to create the new campaign, produce it and get it out to the consumer.
With a website, you can make small or large changes very quickly and on a regular basis.
What if I don't have a website?
Neglecting to have a website could be the turning point, especially in a tight economy. To understand this, check out the web presence of your competitors. The public expects you to have a website and if your competitors do but you don't, then you will lose even more business.
More and more business is being conducted on the internet—using websites and other tools. As the new generation (your prospective current and new clients) is fully integrated in the internet, the importance of having an effective website will only increase.
Can I afford a website?
A small, basic website is affordable and can be expanded on in the future. When considering the benefits that even the simplest website can provide, the question to ask is less "Can I afford to have a website?" than "Can I afford not to have one?"
Fern Web can create a new (basic) website for less than $500 (including a year's hosting)—and we can stagger the cost over the year.
That site would be completely upgradable.
What is social networking?
Social networking on the internet is normally associated with Blogs, Facebook, Twitter and other similar internet-based social groups.
Some of our customers use these networks as an integral part of their websites. At the current time—smaller business websites don't use these interactions in a regular setting. However, that could change any time, depending on trends.
Mobile and smart phones and my website.
More and more people are acquiring smart phones like Blackberry's, iPhones and other devices which have internet and browser capabilities.
These devices see your website differently than the browser on your computer and web developers are paying more attention to how these devices see your website.
At Fern Web we pay attention to the development of these devices and how they impact your website visitations.
