Do Small Businesses Need Website?

Why Think You Don’t Need?

Business is Too Small or Too New!

A lot of small business owners think websites are only for larger businesses.The truth is that businesses of all sizes must have a website. You are never too new or too small to have a website.

Why Not Create the Website Later?

First, all of your potential customers are on the Internet. All of your competitors are likely online as well, with a professional website. If you plan to compete and gain those customers, you will need to get a website for your business early on in the process.

Thinking that you will create a website later, once you are more successful is an outdated notion. Customers rely on your website and other information they find online to determine if they even want to do business with you. If they can’t find this information from you, they’ll likely wind up elsewhere on the Internet and find a different business to buy from.

Keep in mind that procrastinating rarely helps. It just delays the inevitable. The best case scenario is that the business succeeds, but misses out on potential customers. The worst case scenario is that the business fails, but would have succeeded with a digital presence.

Can Use Social Media Instead!

One of the next top things some businesses do is try to use social media accounts as a website replacement. Maybe a digital marketing guru told them a Facebook Page is all they needed. This is a bad idea, and there are a few reasons why.

Rules Can Change on Social Media Platforms!

One reason is that you are now at the mercy of whatever platforms you are using. Facebook, Instagram, and every other social media platform can change the rules at any time. And they can change the rules in ways that seem capricious and arbitrary.

The reality is that all of these platforms are for-profit corporations, similar to your small business. They have a duty to the shareholders of their company to maximize their profit. This means if they can make a change to their platform to make more money, they will likely do it, regardless of how it negatively impacts your company.

That’s not to say you shouldn’t still use these platforms for your business. You definitely should. You just also need to realize unless you are paying them, like with ads, they have very minimal incentive to ensure you are getting adequate exposure.

Organic Reach Is Going Down

Facebook tweak its algorithm frequently. As organic reach continues to decline, it’s becoming more difficult to connect with your target audience and achieve desired results without investing in paid social media advertising.

In other words, it’s getting tougher to get your message out there without shelling out some cash for ads.

Ultimately, without a website, you’ll become more and more disconnected from your existing and potential customers.

Cultivate a Professional Web Presence

Rather than just being the corner shop or local business down the street, having a website—especially one with an appealing web design—gives the impression you are serious and ready to do business with all kinds of customers. After all, a well-made website can lead to business success.

Become an Information Resource

If your business is in a niche industry, having a website allows you to build your reputation as an authority in your field. Create a blog section with informative articles and link to it on your landing page.

Potential customers doing a Google search on common problems related to your industry will be more likely to find you. Plus, after they read your blog articles, they’ll see how helpful you can be to them.

Own Your Name

Creating a site and buying a domain name (e.g., www.business-example.com) helps stake your claim to your business’s name. Plus, it’s a quick and easy way to improve your brand identity.

You can also get a unique business email that will add to that sense of branding (e.g., yourname@business-example.com).

Improve SEO Rankings

When performing a search through sites like Google, Bing, or Yahoo, you will see a list of websites related to your search. You can apply many SEO (search engine optimization) tactics to your website to improve its rankings on those search engines, helping to generate free traffic and sales. Boost SEO with helpful, fresh content posted in your website’s blog section.

Increase Leads From Online

Increasing visitors to your website is good, but gaining customers is even better. With a well-optimized and mobile-friendly website, you get your potential leads to call, sign up, or purchase a product from your company. You can turn your website into a leading salesperson for your company.

Develop a Mailing List

Once you have a website built, add a form for people to sign up for your mailing list or newsletter. This will give you an easily accessed database of potential customers to advertise to. According to a 2020 study, 78 percent of marketers considered email essential to their company’s overall success.

Reach Online Consumers

According to a 2022 survey, about 63 percent of the entire planet’s population, approximately 5 billion people, have internet access.

Since most people can access the internet, even having a basic landing page as your business website is helpful. For many consumers, if they can’t find something online, it doesn’t exist as far as they are concerned. A web presence means being able to reach people where they are.

Offer Easy Access to Product Info and Customer Service

Working with your staff and product distributors, you can offer as much detail on products and services as you want. Email forms and contact info can help a small business build out a more professionally-styled customer service system.

Even semi-automated chatbots can be placed on a website, performing the same essential function an operator would on a major company’s 1-800 customer service phone number. As a result, customer service is now available for your clients anytime.

Create Value for Customers

Your staff can spend less time explaining the basics of a product or service to inquiring customers. If a consumer is not at your store, you can directly refer them to your website if they have any additional questions. Those customers who like to “kick the tires” before purchasing will be able to do as much advance reading on your offerings as they want.

Host a Virtual Showroom for All Your Products

If you have a business with limited floor space for your products, your website can provide the solution. You have virtually unlimited space to list all your products in as much detail as you want, and potential customers can read up on them at any time.

You can include high-quality photo galleries for products by working with manufacturers and distributors. Plus, your virtual showroom can be open 24/7.

Boost Brand Awareness

Place your website address on all your existing promotional material, e.g., business cards, brochures, etc. You could see increased sales. For example, even if someone who picked up a piece of product literature isn’t planning to buy right away, you may have planted a seed.

When the consumer gets serious about making a purchase, your website materials are easily accessible. Your site is likely where they’ll now start their product research in earnest. When you combine traditional promotional materials with the added resource of your website, your business is more likely to “stick” in customers’ minds.

Help Train Staff

If you’ve taken the time to build out a website with detailed info about products and services, you now have an information resource available for your staff to use internally. Direct new employees to specific web pages so they can read up on the products they will be selling.

Enjoy Return Customers by Always Being “Findable”

Potential customers may sometimes lose business cards and brochures. However, a bookmark in a customer’s web browser can remain in their search history. This “permanency” can also assist in word-of-mouth referrals.

Achieve Quicker Referrals

If your business comes up in a conversation between a former customer and a friend of theirs, what is the first thing they will likely try to do? They will search the business on the web. With your business website up and running, they are more likely to find you rapidly, thanks to your online presence and brand identity.

Establish Authority by Featuring Awards, Reviews, and Testimonials

Has your company won an industry award? Does your staff have professional certifications? Make sure these are mentioned on your website.

If you have happy customers, take advantage of it. You can use positive customer reviews and testimonials directly on your website. We’ve even created a list of templates on how to encourage customers to leave reviews to help you get started.

In addition, it may help to create a dedicated web page section to showcase a “portfolio” of your work (with photos, if applicable). Building a groundswell of positive reviews that are easy to find on your business website is yet another way to distinguish you from your competition.

Web Design Questions

Our website packages usually range from TK 59,000 – TK 1,99,000. It includes Domain and Hosting plan for a year.

The process we use to build your website takes a certain amount of time and a lot of planning and research. Unlike other agencies, we DON’T use templates. We build your website from scratch, which means you get a unique design tailored around your business. Buying a website from us should not just simply be seen as a business expense as your website is a sales tool that should earn you money.

Yep. We’ve also been asked that question too. We spend a lot of time researching, planning the user’s journey through your site and then finally with the design and build. We’re typically cheaper than larger agencies because…

 

We work remotely which means you don’t pay for the water cooler or beanbag chairs

We’re a small team who take on a limited number of clients each year. You won’t be talking to account managers, you’ll talk directly to the owner, Samiul Haque. This saves on staff costs.

It takes approximately 6-10 weeks to build a website from start to finish, providing we have all the information from you. Our full web design process is broken down here. Generally speaking, the website will only take a long time if we are still waiting for text and images from yourself.

Before we begin working together, we’ll usually have an initially chat on the phone or via Skype to discuss the project. Once we get started, most of the communication will take place over email.

This makes the process a lot easier as we’ll have all of the information saved and can come back to it later. Once we’ve finished the project, we will book in your 1hr digital marketing training session.

It really depends on what type of website you want. We’ll be able to discuss this on our discovery call before we start working together. Depending on which package we agree on we could need…

 

1.  Images of you and your team

2. Images of your workplace

3. Content for the website e.g. text, PDFs etc

4. Staff Profiles

5. Any Videos you would like adding to the website

6. Login details to your existing website

 

Some of this might already be on the existing website, in which case it can be transferred over to the new site.

You’re in luck. We offer a risk-free guarantee. Before we build your new website, we’ll design a mockup of your homepage. We’ll design a layout first, that way you’ll get to see our initial designs within approximately ten days. This is your opportunity to give us feedback and if you really don’t like it, you don’t have to move forward. Best part is, this won’t cost you anything.

Yes, we split the payment into two. The first 50% is usually taken once you have seen the mockup of your homepage and you’re happy to move forward. The following 50% is taken 30 days after this.

If we build your website, we will generally manage the hosting for you so you don’t need to do anything. We use the same hosting company for our own website and for ALL our clients. Each website is managed individually to avoid any security issues. Every website we build has unlimited bandwidth, 20GB of disk space, 2GB Ram and 99.9% uptime. We’ve used the same company for 5 years and we don’t plan on changing this anytime soon.

If you’re interested, the company we use is HOSTINGER.

Yes, we can arrange a maintenance package to suit your needs. This can range from 1hr per month to 10 hours per month and we can discuss a package that’s right for you.

Yes. We like to offer the ability for our clients to update the website themselves. We we’ll give you all the training and tools to be able to make website amendments. We use a easy to use platform called WordPress so you can add edit and delete content without paying us to do it for you.

You can have an unlimited amount of pages on your website. 

It depends on the package you choose. We are happy to write the text for your website if you would like. We have a copywriter in house who will create the content for your website so you don’t have to.

We will ask you a series of questions before we begin, then we will research your market and suggest a series of pages for your website. We’ll learn as much as we need to know to create compelling words that inspire people to get in touch.

No. We only use WordPress to build websites. We have used other platforms in the past but not anymore. WordPress is a platform that’s easily accessible for our clients to update themselves, it’s search engine friendly and it’s easy to integrate with third party companies.

If you already have a website. That’s great. This means we can build your new website whilst your other website is still live. Once we are ready to go live and you are happy with the new site we can then swap the old site for the new one. It can take as little as 10 minutes for the new website to be visible. This means you’ll barely even notice a dip in your traffic numbers.

Yes. Your website will be fully responsive and will look great on all devices. We don’t charge extra for this. It comes as standard.

It depends. There’s no clear answer to this question as search engines change their requirements all the time. However, we have had clients get to the first page for their main keywords within 2 days of launching and we’ve had websites take 2–3 months for Google to show them on the first page.

However, there is no guarantee you will ever get to the first page of Google for your main keywords, some of your competitors might have huge marketing budgets or have been there for years.

Yes. We will purchase the images for your website. We use stock image websites such as Depositphotos, Shutterstock and 123rf to buy professional images so that you don’t have to pay a photographer.

At adForce, we first,

 

Design the wireframe -> Take the client’s approval-> Do revisions -> Finalize the framework and agree on the workflow.

 

On agreeing on the workflow we,

 

Design mockups in line with the approved wireframes -> Take the client’s approval -> Finalize the mockups and agree with the design.

That sounds great. We can use it and will also tweak it if necessary, based on your expectations.

Regular maintenance is essential for a website to stabilize its flexibility and reliability. Proper maintenance would help in ensuring your website’s security, invite new visitors, boost traffic and more.

Of course, we can help you out with proper and professional website maintenance in addition to development as it supports in achieving stabilized growth, keeping your business inclined.

Hosting & Domain Questions

Yes. Hosting is like renting space on the internet. You’ll need to buy hosting otherwise people won’t be able to access your website.

Hosting usually costs less than TK 30,000 per year. It can cost a lot more depending on your requirements. Hosting prices usually increase the more website visitors you have.

If we build your website, we will usually host it for you and you don’t need to do anything. We pay the hosting fee for the first year and we’ll send you an invoice once a year thereafter. Alternatively, you can host the website elsewhere and manage it yourself. It’s completely up to you.

Of course. You’re buying a website from us. It’s the least we can do. As long as it’s available for purchase, we’ll buy it for you and pay for the first year. We’ll send you an annual invoice for the renewal along with the hosting fees.

 

Obviously, if the domain name costs more than the average of 1,000- TK 3,000, then we’d have to discuss this with you!

You will own the domain. We will register the domain in your name and address and it belongs to you. This means you have ultimate control over it.

That sounds great. If you already have one and that suits your business, we can very well proceed with it.

SEO Questions

It depends which package you choose. SEO is usually an ongoing commitment and will require continuous work. However, we do offer a package that will start you off on the right foot.

 

The Elite Website Plan includes basic on-page SEO for 10 pages. This means we’ll perform keyword research and optimize it for search engines.

It can vary dramatically but our monthly SEO plans begin at TK 50,000+VAT per month. This is generally a starter plan for a local business with a moderate amount of competition.

 

Some of our other clients pay over TK 1,00,000+VAT per month for our SEO services. It really depends on how much work will be required and how much competition you have in your industry.

We track your rankings using our reliable software. We get updates everyday and we’ll be able to see what’s working and what isn’t. We’ll send you a monthly report so you can see your traffic numbers and rankings.

General Questions

No. We only work with business owners who we can TRULY help. We’re not the type of company who work with anyone and everyone just to make money. We need to be confident that we are the right fit for one another. This is why we have a free discovery session at the start of the process. Here are 7 reasons you SHOULD’T work with us.
