People nowadays use the internet as if they were using a phone book<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Many local small business owners find it unnecessary to have one <b>website<\/b> because they already have a good clientele locally. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Today, however, we can safely say that <b>the internet is a global phenomenon<\/b> and almost all of them use it to search for information even at the local level. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Customers, from the very young to a more adult audience, use their smartphone to decide where to go and what to buy. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><b>The way in which customers approach a company&#039;s products or services has been totally revolutionized by the web, so it&#039;s important that your small business also has visibility,<\/b> otherwise, the risk that other activities similar to yours are present on the <b>web<\/b> climbing over you is inevitable. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">People browsing the web will find other local businesses rather than yours.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><b>2.A website strengthens your business legitimacy<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">People expect companies to have their own <b>website<\/b> just as they expect every business to have a real physical business address. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Don&#039;t have a <b>website<\/b> company raises many doubts in the minds of customers: it is not a technology company !; perhaps it is managed by staff who do not update themselves, still accustomed to the old methods !, perhaps they do not want to give visibility to their products because they are not original ?! Obviously they are all doubts that you don&#039;t want people to link to your business!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><b>3.A business website gives you another channel for marketing<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Having a <b>company website <\/b>it means being present on the busiest square that exists, that is <b>Internet<\/b>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Think of it as an online billboard, albeit a <b>website<\/b> it is much more! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><b>Internet<\/b> it gives you the possibility to increase the traffic of people interested in your products and services. Obviously the amount of potential customers that yours <b>website <\/b>attracts, it will depend on your core marketing efforts to get people&#039;s attention, like <b>search engine optimization, online advertising, use of social media and blogging.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><b>4. A business website offers you a much better performing alternative for data collection<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">For example, making people write their email address on a sheet of paper is not easy precisely because it often annoys those who visit your business who are forced to say they don&#039;t have time to stop and write their contacts. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Instead, get people to type their email address into a box <b>website<\/b> it&#039;s much easier, especially if users perceive that by leaving their email with you they get something, like a newsletter, a special report entitling you to discounts or an ebook. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">In short, once you have their email address, you have another channel to communicate with your potential customers and inform them about news regarding your company&#039;s products or services.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><b>5.
