Can people find your Business?
How to Ensure that Customers will find your Business on the Web
If you do not have an online presence in 2012 you do not exist. This may be a strong statement but more and more people are searching the Internet to find potential product providers. That is fact!
You may already have a website. You may even have a brilliant website with all the bells & whistles. You may even have won an award but if people cannot find you then…
It is the same as winking at someone in the dark.
You know you’re doing it, but no one else does.
Therefore – Get your business online and let it work for you!
Yet like so many other things in life, it’s not as simple as it sounds. Having a website that lacks search engine (i.e: Google and Yahoo) traffic, completely defeats the objective and will be lost amongst the approximately 250 million other web sites.
For those of you that have tried in vain to get online, only to be quoted sky high prices for website development, professional design and regular Search Engine Optimization (SEO) services to justify the expense: it is clear that another solution is required. There is a need for something that is cost effective for both small and larger businesses; that will generate the interest and the return on investment that makes the exercise worthwhile.
