Reasons Why You Need A Website

Building an online presence for your brand can be a very fulfilling journey. Here, a lot of decisions are made. Which social platforms you should be on, where your audience might be, what strategies and tactics you should use to create the visibility your brand needs and of course the necessity of having a website? While all these are important questions and decisions to make. Today we will be focusing on why you should get your brand a website or if you already have one why you need to give that site a facelift. 

Brand Awareness

Did you know your market expects you to be online? Whether they know you or not. Once they require a service you offer, they go online to look for you. As the world continues to go digital, that’s the fastest way to find a product or service. Now, you might say I am very present on Twitter or Instagram or any other social media platform. Yes, these will give you some form of awareness but you should know these socials need a base to link to. These in many ways help them to rank higher on search engines and in turn create more awareness. 

Search Engine Ranking

You guessed right! It’s all about SEO and how you can properly rank with Search Engines. A well-designed, properly optimized website gives you a good position on search engines. Think about the last thing you searched for on Google. You most likely selected the first few pieces of information given once you hit the search button. What do you think was the reason those websites came first? You’re right good SEO. In summary, a good website helps you to garner much traffic to your website which most likely leads to conversion and retention. 

Lead Generation

After your website has successfully ranked high and has given your brand a certain level of awareness. The potential customers begin to flock in. Of course, not everyone will be converted immediately. But the work has already begun. You have started to build a connection. The website help with cookies which will keep information handy to retarget. Many times, this retargeting leads them back to your site where they now make their purchases. A good website not only brings your market to you, it gives them a seamless experience that not only keeps them but converts them.

Let’s not forget that you can also get your potential customers to subscribe to your newsletters through their emails which will in many ways enable you to educate and encourage them to choose you. 

Additionally, a good website helps you know your customers. It gives you insights into your target, who they are, their demographics, interest and more. This helps you not only create a befitting persona but also helps you know how to serve them better and what you need to improve on. This makes a world of difference. Because once your customers are happy a relationship is built. 

Trust

You can’t have a good relationship without trust and that is one thing a good website does for you. Once your clientele starts to form a connection with you, they start to build a certain level of trust and loyalty. They can vouch for you and will most likely even recommend you. Let us say it again. A good website builds trust and not just trust with your retained customers. It makes your new ones know you’re authentic. 

Cost

A website is one way to reduce costs. It helps you have a shop but one that is virtual and so it saves you the cost of having a brick-and-mortar, paying staff to be present and all the maintenance that comes with it. Not to talk about things like printing. An online website allows you to have brochures, pamphlets and news without having to print them. This in many ways makes it more convenient for your clientele.
