Post store information like hours and phone number.

Having a web site is like other forms of advertising:  it provides information about your business and encourages customers to choose you rather than your competitors.

.

Newspaper, radio, and television advertising presents unsolicited messages to potential customers, rather than waiting for customers to come looking for you.  Your web site can perform a similar function.  Just like traditional advertising, on the Internet, your message is presented along with content that has attracted the viewer.  This can be done by placing small ads on existing high-traffic sites and/or by offering content on your own web site that will attract visitors directly to you.

Your web site can also perform a function unlike any of these traditional forms of advertising.  It can interact with your customers.  For example, it can solicit and record their comments, ask that they fill out a survey, or respond to their search request.

In addition to its usefulness as a promotion tool, a web site has the potential to provide your business automation benefits, including increased convenience for your customers and possible reduction in costs for you. See When is the right time? for more information on using your web site to automate customer communication.

Because the Internet is available to a global audience, it's sometimes thought of as only being useful for mail-order businesses or huge companies.  Businesses that serve a specific geographical area may overlook the benefits described here of using it for advertising.  Remember

How thorough are your promotion efforts?
A web site is a useful promotional tool for any business.  All businesses should consider at least a minimal web site that provides contact information.  A growing number of people use the Internet to search for information about local businesses.  If you have a phone book ad, you should also have a web site.

If you use a more aggressive approach, including newspaper, radio, or television advertising, you should add a web presence to your repertoire of promotion tools.  Why have a web site? provides more information about how you can use your web site to promote your business.

Small Business
Would my Company Benefit by Having a Website?
By Chris Falck

Why have a Website?

A Very good question... and in truth there are literally hundreds
of reasons why your company would benefit from having a website.
They offer:

10000 times more information than a TV commercial.
Are on show 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Costs less than filling your car with petrol.
Allow you to sell your Products and Promote your business
worldwide.

Need I say more?

OK, don't just run out and get one! A Web site needs to be
carefully designed to get your message across in the most
efficient way. It is vital that they are:

Fast loading and don't allow your visitor to loose interest
before they have seen the site.
They need to be easy to navigate and very user friendly.

For 99+% of businesses an effectively marketed, well-designed
web site is the most important marketing tool your company will
have, while for less than one percent, a web site is simply
useless!

The Internet is an appropriate tool for most businesses but not
necessarily every single business. There are instances where a
web site would simply be a waste of time - not many admittedly,
but there are a few.

Your Web Site's Purpose Is To Sell. Almost all Web design
specialists are technicians. They may be dab hands with the
technology but any business Web site is designed for one purpose
only - To Sell. Your business exists to sell. It exists to create
long-term, repeat buyers.

Your web sites purpose could be to create a product sale or to
generate leads or to generate leads or to advertise your services
or to educate prospects. But it's got to sell.

Do you understand the significance of what I am saying?

Many business owners have been persuaded that what's needed is a
technological solution to a technological problem. This has led
to sites that are hard for visitors to find their way around and
are very costly to maintain.

If your site has spurious graphics it will quite simply be
cumbersome and will definitely be slow to load - The result of
this is quite simply that your visitor leaves your site because
they are fed up waiting and goes elsewhere!

To sell you need to adopt the KISS principle... Keep It Simple
Stupid!... Make it easy. The design of your Web site needs to be
simple!

A good Web site is much more about business and marketing
strategy than it is about the underlying technology. Furthermore,
your Web site needs to integrate with your other marketing
activities.

There are some big differences between Web marketing and
conventional marketing so you need to know what the essential
ingredients are. Quite simply, it is a combination of the
following that will lead to success for you on the Web:

Technical Expertise
Creative Web Design
Web-adapted direct marketing skills
Potential Customers.

There are far too many Web sites out there today that are a huge
disappointment to their owners. They've spent their money;
they've got their Web site and sadly, nobody visits it! Does this
sounds familiar to you?

So what's this hype about their being millions of surfers on the
net? Is it a lie? No there are literally millions of surfers,
many of which would be keen to purchase your product or service.
It takes time and a lot of effort to attract visitors to your
site. But if you know how to do it... they will come - by the
thousand!

Many web site owners simply believed they would get lots of
business simply by having a web site. This is simply untrue. You
may believe that you only need to register with a few dozen (few
hundred?) search engines to get the visitors flocking. But again,
that alone won't do it for you.

Registering with search engines is a vital step, but before you
do, your site needs to be optimised for the keyword searches that
Internet users will use to find your site. If your site doesn't
appear in the first page or two of results of a search and your
competition's site does, you can imagine who would get the
business!

So which search engines and directories should you register with?
What techniques should you adopt to get your site at or very
close to the top of the search results listing?
And what actions can you take to ensure that you stay there?

To be honest it's a difficult and time-consuming job.
Fortunately, companies exist that have some specialist software
tools that can help you get over these problems.

If you are intending to create a web presence for your company
you would be wise to take the following advice...

Take some time surfing the net looking at businesses that relate
to your own. Look at your competition etc. etc. Look at what they
are doing, how they are doing it and think if their web presence
would be beneficial to your business. Don't be put off if you
have heard that the site is not profitable. It is probably
because of the difficulties explained above and that there owners
are not clued up on How to promote your business online.

I hope this information is useful to you.
