Do i need a website ?
If you're still wondering whether you need a Web site, consider this: A company without a URL is like a company without a business card. In today's fast growing business world of Internet communication, a successful company must have its presence on the Internet and view this incredible marketing tool as a 24 hour-a-day, 365 days-a-year advertising billboard for your company and your services - regardless of its size.
A small business owner may balk at the idea of spending several thousand dollars to create a presence on the web, however, this is a very sound investment which will reap its benefits in the years to come. It is also essential not to overlook how much money a small business will actually save by tapping this valuable marketing tool. A commercial web site will become an important adjunct to any company and, in some cases, it will be the main way in which your customers and others interact with you in the future.
How to do it ?
Typically, any organization interested in producing a promotional Web site needs to follow a number of steps to insure efficient production. Here are some major topics you may want to address in order to ensure your Web site's success.
DEFINE THE PURPOSE OF YOUR WEBSITE
IDENTIFY YOUR TARGET AUDIENCE
An e-commerce Web site will greatly differ from a Web site designed for a small, service-oriented business whose goal is to simply publicize the business on the Net. There's no need for expensive bells and whistles to create a simple site designed to spread the word about your business.
DECIDE WHO SHOULD DESIGN YOUR SITE
Consider all option, but beware of Do-it-yourselfers. Trying to create a Web site from scratch could drive you to the brink of insanity. Web design is a true skill, and unless you're savvy, you'll spend a lot of time with nothing to show. Most entrepreneurs are better off trying to find a reasonably-priced site designer.
DEFINE WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD TO SPEND
Construction costs can range from several hundred dollars for a do-it-yourself Web site to a couple of million dollars for the 'Cadillac' version.
