1. Everyone Uses The Internet
People expect to find their favorite businesses and Organizations online.
If you don't have your own site, other sites such as Manta, Yelp and others will be happy to be the 'authority' site on your business details! Even if they're wrong.
2. Use On Social Media
Social networking websites give you the chance to connect with potential clients and customers on platforms they're already using.
By having your own website, you can associate your URL on your Fan Pages - increasing awareness of the goods and services you offer.
3. Advertising And Promotions
If you're paying for online or offline advertising, it's essential that you have a website where interested parties can Contact you directly, inquire or purchase your products and services or learn more about your company.
Your own website provides all of this.
4. Lead In Local Search
If your business doesn't have a website, you can be sure that your competitors do!
This means if potential clients use a popular search engine like Google, Bing or Yahoo! to find a service provider, someone in your area with a website is more likely to get their business - not you!
This is a 'missed opportunity!'
5. Increase Your Profits!
Having your own website gives you the platform to sell products and services online easily, so you can increase your sales.
In the case of non-profit Organizations, the ability to easily add a Paypal 'Donate' button makes it easier for people to contribute to your cause with little friction.
6. You Never Close!
A website gives you the ability to provide pertinent information about your business or Organization at all times, even if you're physically closed.
Think of your site as being an online brochure that's always ready to be distributed to interested visitors.
7. Appeal To A Larger Market
One way to increase your market share and your profits is by appealing to a larger market.
If you have products or services that can be sold to people beyond your local market, you're missing out on these sales by not having a website to sell them from.
8. Yellow Pages Are Outdated
Yellow Page ads can still be effective, but many people rely solely on the Internet to find information about the businesses they're interested in.
With your own website you can update information as needed and share multimedia such as pictures and videos directly with your visitors. Interactivity rules!
9. Multimedia Capabilities
Multimedia capabilities allow you to offer photo galleries or embed videos directly at your site.
This is perfect for anyone that's been featured in local media, sponsors events or just wants to share more about their business or Organization online.
10. The Future Is Now!
The Internet is no longer a 'new' concept.
If you've been dragging your heels about a site for your business, there's no time left to wait!
People are looking for you and if you can't be found, they'll look for someone else that can be found online easily.
