Your website can and should
be a very effective and productive way to attract new
customers, if (and only if) it's done correctly.
Yes, your secretary or nephew or local college kid can
build a website for you, but unfortunately, most are
worse than no website at all because they present your
company in an unprofessional light. Keep in mind that
when a potential new customer finds you on the web,
their impression of your company is strictly based on
what they see and read in your website. If that's not
up to par, they will almost certainly go elsewhere.
See our article on Common
Web Design Errors for examples of things that can
harm the effectiveness of your site. If you already
have a website but it's not bringing you many leads,
see our article on Website
Re-design.
Attempting to build your own
website can be very time consuming and take away from
valuable time you need to keep your company focused
on taking care of your customers. Even worse, an amateurish-looking
website makes you look unprofessional, will likely not
include many elements necessary to make it effective,
and will almost certainly do a very poor job attracting
new prospects.
Your Website Should Bring You New
Customers Consistently
We realize that for many small
businesses money is very tight, especially in this difficult
economy. It's not easy to spend money on a
new or re-designed website or other types of advertising.
But at the same time, it's important to keep in mind
that you're competing for what is probably a smaller
amount of revenue in your market, and a well done website
should be your most cost effective way of developing
new business. So, intelligent investment in a productive
website may be the best way to insure not only survival,
but consistent growth of your business.
Here's an example
- let's say that you have a local business or practice,
a new customer/client/patient is worth $850 for you
on average and currently your website is bringing you
one new customer/client/patient each month. That equates
to just over $10,000 per year, or $30,000+ over 3 years.
Not bad, but not great.
Now, let's assume that a well-done
re-design and search engine optimization for your website
can triple those results. This is a conservative estimate
for most businesses. In that case your site
would bring you over $30,000 per year in new business,
or $90,000+ over 3 years. Would it make sense to invest
in your website to achieve those kinds of results? Of
course it would be, and you probably also know that
if you don't have a well designed and optimized website
that does well on the search engines, your competitors
almost certainly will be taking business you should
have.

Website for you. Give us a call or email

than you think and if necessary we can work with you
to develop a plan that will fit your budget.
We create websites from the visitor's
point of view
Creating websites from the
visitor's point of view is critical. It
insures that information your potential new clients
are looking for is easily available to them,
and that's the key to convincing your website visitors
to take that "most desired action" to contact
you, for example, perhaps the most common website objective.
Websites are essentially passive
marketing tools, which means that you have to anticipate
what your visitors want, what they're looking for, and
how they want to find it. If your site is well designed
to accomodate these needs your visitors are far more
likely to give you a call or send you an email and eventually
to become a customer, patient, or client.
Planning is the necessary first
step to a Highly Productive Website
For any business website
to be effective and productive it must be well planned.
This means deciding on solid and realistic
objectives for the site, especially the "most
desired action" you want your site visitors to
take, such as filling out a contact form or purchasing
your products. It also means clearly defining
your Target Audience and then using what you
know about them, what they need and want, and therefor
what they're looking for to design your website
to satisfy them and to earn their trust. We
understand this planning process thoroughly and can
help you to properly plan a Highly Productive Website
for you and assure its success.
