Do you really need a website?

Well if you have a company and you would like to make money, then yes you need a website.

Whether you are a small business just starting out or your company has been in business before the internet, not having a website is not an option. Unfortunately your customers will begin to stray to businesses that are not only online but are mobile ready.

No longer do your customers wait to look up information when they get home from work or school. They pick up their cell phone or IPad and begin searching for their next purchase.

At the touch of a few buttons you can find out everything you need to know about a company you want to research. Websites showcase a company's business and show how they differ from their competitors. From just one click you can find a company's contact information along with maps and directions on the fly.

Having a website that is mobile ready is right where Google wants you to be. Another major factor has changed with Google's demand for mobile sites available to customers.

As of April of 2015, "Google Search will be expanding its use of mobile-friendliness as a ranking signal." (Support at Google). Which means you may see a drop in your visitors if you don't have a mobile site.

Whatever you do, don't just slap a website together. Remember that this is the first impression your future customers will see. Make it right the first time. Hire a web designer that cares as much about your business as you do. Call Websites Done By U and get started 815-354-8898.
