Why Should You Have A Website?
There are so many reasons to have a website. A website helps you:
- Establish a centralized web presence on the Internet
- Promote your business 24/7
- Be in control of how your business appears
- Give out more information. Ad space is limited, show a link on your ads to your website for more info
When You Shouldn't Invest In Your Web Presence
You should not invest in your web presence when:
- You don't want to grow and have more business
- You can't handle the additional business
Businesses Overwhelmed By Additional Business
It's a widely reported phenomenon that using marketing services like Groupon can get you more business than you can handle. More interestingly, when Oprah mentioned Groupon on her show, the ensuing traffic overwhelmned the Groupon website itself!
It's possible that your business might get overwhelmed by new business, but growing pains are good signs that your business is growing.
Some Concern$ You May Have
Websites don't have to be expensive. Static Website hosting and domain fees each year is under $100!
You don't need to pay for a custom design. Use a pre-made template (there is a template integration cost). If you want to spruce up a pre-made template we can customize it for you at our hourly rate. For many industries, a good looking template is good enough.
The use of templates helps to not only keep costs down, it helps our clients get an idea of what they want — especially if they're creatively challenged! Hey everybody has their strengths and weaknesses.
Your website doesn't need to be huge, or have a lot of features. Start small with fewer pages and build as you grow. Building a website is an investment in time, effort and money but the cost pales in comparison to the possible rewards.
Summary
Our first client (first client for techiniku LLC), Seasons of Life Events, started as a Static Site, is still a Static Site, and is a resounding success. We spent a lot of time getting her custom design right because in the wedding industry, looks is everything.
If you want to build and grow your business, a website is crucial to your success. As a startup with little money to go around, you may want to start small with a Static Website.
Please take the time to look at the services Techiniku has to offer. Static Sites are ideal for websites that don't change often. Dynamic Sites allow you to update content at anytime.
