Get With It, You Need a Web Site

Get with it, you need a web site. If you expect to get anywhere in today's new high-tech economy you better step up your game. Or wait, maybe you shouldn't. I say wait, because you need to stop and think for a moment. Just getting a web site up and running for your business does not make you relevant. I have visited hundreds of company web sites. It would be more advantageous if many of those companies had no web site at all. I have actually spoke with some business owners who are spending hundreds of dollars each week on Google AdWords so they appear at the top of the search engine list and increase their web site traffic. Stop it. Your web site is terrible. The more prospects that go there, the less business you will generate. Have you ever gone to a business web site and said to yourself, "I would never do business with them." Why? Because their web site is so lame, it makes them look totally incompetent. Remember, you only have one chance to make a first good impression. That's goes for your web site as well. So wait. Before you dive into a cheap, flashy, designed-by-my-nephew web site, count the cost. Take a close look at how your "professional" competitors are presenting their companies and stay focused on looking polished and professional. It seems like most of my clients have designed their own web site, and it cost them close to nothing, only $8.95 per month. I can't believe they are wasting $8.95 every month. That's like throwing away a perfectly good juicy ground round with melted cheese. Sit back, take a break, have a hamburger, and find someone, who you think is "too expensive," and have them professionally design your business web site.
