As a small business owner, you may not think it is important to have a good website. Your customers know you and your business gets enough foot traffic, so why should you bother with your online presence?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Answer: Neglecting your business\u2019s digital footprint is a huge mistake. Even if you don\u2019t use the internet that often, your customers sure do. You want to put your best foot forward in every scenario, so an outdated website full of broken links, typos, and inaccurate information will look just as bad as a giant hole full of bats in your business\u2019s ceiling. It is a signal to your customers that your business is not professional, lacks attention to detail, and might even give the impression that you are no longer in business at all.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you don\u2019t have a website, you might still be online. Many websites have the option for customers to add business information without the owner\u2019s knowledge, and you\u2019d be surprised how much is available. Yelp, Google Maps, social media, and other review sites can have pages about your business full of information that you don\u2019t control.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
By building a website you can be the author of your business\u2019s online narrative. Be the trusted source of information for your business\u2019s services and products instead of relying on secondhand accounts from potentially misinformed customers.<\/p>\n
