8 great reasons why YOU should have your own business website

“ There are now dozens and dozens of reasons why you should have some kind of presence on the Internet….and almost none why you shouldn’t. Here are just a few…”

Your competition is already on the web!
And they are attracting YOUR potential customers right now. You know your services and products are better than the competition, so let everyone else know.

Upgrade your image!
In this day and age, not having a website is akin to not having a telephone. Having your website built professionally can be vital to your business' success because it often gives your customers and prospects their very first impression of you.

Capture Every Demographic!
People of virtually ALL ages are now using a computer every minute of every day.
The Internet, now with over a billion users, is the fastest growing communications media in the history of the world. Becoming more visible on-line has become the best way to lure new customers to your business!

Websites can keep you in touch with your customers!
Newsletters and mailing lists can be added to websites so that you can let customers know of promotions and special.

You Can Be Open for Business 24 Hours a Day!
Business hours no longer matter when it comes to information. People can now read about your products and services… 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 365 days a year.

It is Incredibly Cost Effective!
When compared to the costs associated with traditional advertising such as direct mail, newspaper or magazine ads, the cost of a web site is nominal.

Compound Your Advertising!
A web site is a great way to supplement your current advertising. Display your new web address in other ads and let potential customers know exactly where they can go to get more information about your business. Because the web is so convenient, prospects can easily visit your site before making a phone call to your competition.

GETTING STARTED - What the Internet can Do for Your Business

“Targeted Internet marketing and advertising your business online can bring more new customers to your business every day!”

If you haven’t done it yet, get a professionally built Website!
While there are now hundreds of ways to have your business listed on-line, most of them are just that… listings. Just having a website that simply floats somewhere out there in cyberspace is no more effective than having a business card printed without a phone number on it. Websites MUST show up on searches (ie: with Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc.) in order to be of any real use to a business or to the consumer. To accomplish this, you need a strong, well optimized and professionally built business website. Surprisingly, getting one initially built, hosted and maintained by CountyWebsite.com does not really cost all that much. In fact, dollar for dollar, it may be the most cost effective advertising you have ever done!

Even businesses that already have websites often need some help!
While there are now millions of websites you can now visit on the Internet, not all of them have been built to be found by most of the major search engines. In other words, people who look for what you do, what you sell or what you make, need to be able to get a direct link to your own business WEBSITE when surfing the Internet. A surprising number of websites that have been designed or built by “professionals” often fail to meet the actual needs and demands of the business they were made for. CountyWebsite.com can offer several different solutions to businesses that may be facing this dilemma.

Your website should always be designed and built to be found.
Because not everyone knows the name of your company, business or organization, they may not be able to easily find you on the Internet. In today’s world, most websites need to be SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZED (SEO) to solve this problem. Simply put, SEO usually means that a website is given an internal makeover to become more compatible with all of the most popular search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Bing, AOL, etc. A complete analysis of your current website by the trained professionals at CountyWebsite.com is absolutely free. If your current website needs any fixing we can discuss which option will best suit your needs and your advertising budgets.

Make better use the Internet to Market Your Business On-Line
Marketing your business on-line is not the same as selling what your business offers on-line. Once you have your own business website, we help you get the traffic that separates you from the crowd. Utilizing our own proprietary methods that include hosting, maintaining and monitoring your website, we are often able to determine what needs fixing before it is even broken. Plus, you will automatically become part of a local county network that helps you become more visible to consumers who live and work right in your own community.

Getting the Word Out - Targeted Online Advertising
CountyWebsite.com specializes in the creation of targeted marketing pages to be displayed on the Internet. This can mean anything from building a completely new, stand alone website for a business or organization to assisting a business in optimizing a previously built one. In other situations it might mean placing a specially focused marketing page on the Internet for a business that maintains multiple websites. Whatever your particular need is, CountyWebsite.com can produce an on-line product that will help your business increase its exposure to target those consumers who are your best prospects.

Getting the desired result - More Business for You!
Getting you a tangible response is the key. This can mean getting a phone call, receiving an e-mail, or having someone fill in a form on your website or simply getting them to walk in your doors. Web pages built by CountyWebsite.com are always focused on these key elements that result in bringing more new customers to you every day!

Get Started TODAY and be seen on the web in less than a month!
It is amazing how many business owners still think that it takes months and months to develop and build a professionally designed website for their business. In most cases, CountyWebsite.com can have your business’ web page show up on Internet searches in just a matter of a few weeks. It all depends on the particular needs and demands of your business and the number of pages you want placed on your website when it is launched.

SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION (SEO)

“Search Engine Optimization by definition is the process of improving the volume and quality of traffic to a website via search engines through organic un-paid (organic) search results.”

The Basics of Good Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Good search engine optimization is actually very basic in nature. A successful search engine optimization campaign must always contain these essential components:

INTERNET MARKETING AND ADVERTISING

Exactly What Is INTERNET MARKETING?
Simply put, Internet Marketing and Online Advertising is what more and more businesses do in order to become more visible to those consumers who spend more of their valuable time looking for products or services on their desktop computers, laptops, Ipads and Smartphones instead of newspapers, magazines and out of date phone directories. And the number of consumers who make use of this kind of technology has now grown into the billions world wide and literally in the thousands within just a mile or two of where you live and work.

Is there any difference between Internet Marketing and Advertising Online?
Yes….and No. Advertising Online and Internet Marketing can be both the same thing…and completely different animals. In print it is the difference between an 3 page article about your business and a quarter page ad. On TV it is the difference between a half hour infomercial and a fifteen second spot ad. In most cases, just having your business listed on some Internet directory is simply not enough anymore. In the same vein, placing banner ads on someone else’s website is sometimes a very a costly way to try and get your business some attention from the Internet. In today’s world, getting a professionally built and consumer targeted business website is more vital than ever if you want to get ahead and stay ahead of the competition. A trained consultant from CountyWebsite.com can help you determine which forms of Online Advertising and Internet Marketing best suits the needs of your budget as well as your business.

Isn’t Advertising Online an unnecessary expense for most small businesses?
Having spent over 25 years in marketing and advertising, there was a time I might have agreed to this school of thought. But the exponential growth in the amount of time people now spend on the World Wide Web has changed all that. Where computers at work used to be the only time people accessed the Internet, we now have dozens of ways for most people to access the web every minute of every day. From laptops to desktops, from iPads to iPhones and soon from our living room TV’s, there are more and more ways to access the Internet 24 hours a day. For small businesses to be able to continue to maintain a high profile right in their own communities, it is more vital than ever to have a way for people to find them on the web.

Why INTERNET MARKETING is more Important Than Ever Before!
Today, there are so many new ways for your business to be listed on-line, it is almost mind boggling. Surprisingly, many of them can even be done for free. For example, you can register your business on Facebook.com, put a video on YouTube.com, and even list your business on an Internet service directory like Google Places, Yahoo Local, or Merchant Circle.com.

Unfortunately, just being listed somewhere on the Internet (whether free or not) does not guarantee that your business will be found on the Internet. This is because many of your competitors are also being registered for free with social media like Facebook and MySpace, or on many of the same Internet directory services. So in the end, free listings, free pages on social media, and free websites that are built at home with shared technologies simply end up lumping you with everyone else who do the very same things.

How Does CountyWebsite.com’s INTERNET MARKETING Program Work?
We try to keep it simple to start with. The beauty of our customized Internet Marketing program is that it always allows you to be completely in charge of the development of your business’ on-line presence. You can keep your customized website fairly simple and easy to use, while still making it very effective in your own particular market. You can allocate only the funds you want to allocate, control the overall content, and establish the pace at which you want your customized Internet Marketing program to grow and flourish.

What is a Mobile Website?
A Mobile Website is a new style of site / service that makes your business easily available to mobile users with a fast and easy mobile website. Millions of people are now using their mobile phones to surf the Internet and look for information and services. Mobile websites ensure customers can easily find your business anywhere, anytime. Thanks to its intuitive and easy-to-use interface, customers get immediate access on their mobile phone to all the key information about your business and are able to contact you with just one click or touch.

Why is the mobile web important?
There are 4 billion mobile phones in active use worldwide: 4 times more than PCs. In 2009, mobile web usage increased 148% globally (Source: Quantcast) and the numbers continue to rise. In fact, by the end of 2013, customers using the mobile web are projected to grow to 1 billion. Your customers are already looking for you on their mobile phones. This is a huge opportunity for your business you don’t want to miss. If your business is not on the mobile web, your customers won’t be able to find you!

How are mobile Web sites different than PC sites?
Mobile websites are built to exploit the special characteristics of mobile phones and mobile users to provide the best possible experience to users. Besides adapting to the smaller screen of a mobile phone, they are also made easier to navigate using touch or a keypad and provide more direct access to the information that a customer is more likely to need while on the go. Even on high-end devices with large touch-screens, a made for- mobile Website helps your visitors quickly become happy customers with content and a design that’s suited to someone in a mobile context for example, customers can use the unique features of the mobile phone to contact you such as the ‘call us’ feature, where with one touch they call your business and the ‘find us’ feature, which provides access to a Google map showing your business address and allowing the customer to obtain directions from their present location to your business.
