We have to be honest – coming up with reasons why you need a website is easy. We are still scratching our heads for reasons why you might not. Honestly, if you are running a business of any kind no matter what its size, from a sole trading gardener to a multi-national retailing giant you are unlikely to want that business to stand still. You want to grow, to expand, to develop. To do that you need to expand your customer base, and to do that you need to attract new customers.

We suppose that there are ways you can to do this without a website. But really, for best results you really do need your business to be available online. Your focus might well be entirely on selling things in person to people who have come and visited your bricks and mortar premises – it does not matter. The fact remains that if you want to be found online or in real life you still to be online.

Studies have shown that the majority – as many as eighty percent – of people in search of local businesses only look for the products and services they need using online search. Even when customers are looking for a brick and mortar store they want to visit in person potential customers are still not using any other methods to find are looking for. The days when a potential customer might “let their fingers do the walking” as they browsed through printed business directories or scoured advertisements in the local paper are very much over. If your business is not appearing near the top of the search engine results pages then your business is not going to be found.

Of course, your website needs to be good if the people who find it are going to be impressed enough to become customers, so you need excellent web design. Blackburn, and the offices of seoBusiness is the place to come for that. We understand that “you only get one chance to make a first impression”. For most new customers your website will be the first interaction with your business that they will have. If they do not feel that interaction is positive they are much less likely to become long term customers. 

So what is the best way to make that positive online impression? First of all you need a website. You really do. Just having a presence on social is simply not enough. And that website needs to look good and be easy to use. A good website gives you the ability to control what the customer sees – after all a unified, coherent brand is vital projecting your identity, so stick with the logos and fonts that you use on your non-online branding.

Is visual appeal the most important thing about a website though? One of the reasons some businesses put forward for not investing in a website is the amount of time, money and effort that can be required to build a great looking, user friendly website. And the truth is that if nobody ever sees it all of that time money and effort is completely wasted. However, that is absolutely no a reason not to invest in a website, it is simply a reason to protect that investment by making sure that your website is optimised for internet search.

“Search Engine Optimisation”, or “SEO” is the practice dedicated to ensuring that a website is able to effectively attract the attention of the algorithms which are used by the popular search engines when they scour the internet.  SEO is a time consuming and complex task, which is best left to the professionals.
