The advantages of your own website
I have been talking to a number of people lately about the advantages of having your own website and there are a number of thigs that regularly crop up.
Lots of people say well, I am on Facebook and some even have their own page there. However, do remember that Facebook is not the whole web. Lots of people are not members and never look at Facebook at all, and Facebook does not always allow non members to look at their content, and yes, they look at what you put up there as their content, not yours. If you have your own website then it is completely under your control, not a faceless American company that insists you follow their rules.
The advantages of having your own website
The internet is the cheapest and biggest way to advertise, whether you are a business or a club or organisation and you will be amazed at how cheap it is now to run your own website – Please see this page
Here are a few benefits:
- Online Presence 24/7. Having a website means customers are always able to find you – anytime, anywhere.
- Credibility – Having your own domain gives you more credibility .
- In today’s modern world, there is an expectation for any reputable company to have some kind of online presence.
- Proper email instead of a yahoo or google email
- You can become an internet resource. For example this website is not primarily a business one but it is well known for Forest of Dean Events
- Improve your SEO rankings – When you search online through sites like Google, Bing, or Yahoo you will see a list of websites with answers to your request. Not having a website makes it a lot more difficult for you to rank and gain free traffic and sales from search engines.
