The Business Case For Having a Website

Every day, we encounter clients who have yet to establish an online presence through a website. Upon initial discussions, they commonly cite the following reasons:

  • Reliance on Social Media: Some believe that their presence on platforms like Facebook and Instagram is sufficient for their business needs.
  • Referral-Based Business: Others assert that their business primarily thrives on referrals, rendering a website unnecessary.
  • Budget Constraints: A significant portion claims a lack of budget as a hindrance to investing in a website.
  • Time Constraints: Some express a shortage of time, deeming the process of website creation too time-consuming.
  • Lack of Know-How: A portion admit to not knowing where to begin, leading to a perpetual delay in website initiation.

An online presence is essential for any business today, regardless of the industry, as it significantly impacts success. Many businesses may not realise that most potential customers will visit their website before deciding to purchase. A well-developed online presence – especially a website – can be the deciding factor in generating more revenue.

If you’re still on the fence, here are the top reasons your business should have a website:

Improve Credibility
A key reason for having a website for your business is to enhance your organisation’s credibility. With many providers likely offering similar services, a well-designed website that delivers clear, quality information can help you stand out. Without a website, potential customers may doubt your legitimacy. A website allows you to make a strong first impression and assures people that your business is reputable and trustworthy.

Elevate Your Brand
Presenting your brand to potential customers is essential. Clearly defining who you are, what you represent, and your core values boosts the likelihood that customers will choose your business. A website is a powerful way to differentiate yourself from competitors, as it allows people to easily access quality, reliable information about your business. Without one, showcasing your brand effectively becomes much more difficult.

Lead Generation Opportunities
A key reason to have a website is to boost lead generation. When people find you online, a well-designed website makes it easy for them to learn more and reach out, increasing your sales opportunities. While websites involve some cost, they deliver a strong ROI when effectively utilised.

Organic Traffic
With an SEO-optimized website, your business has the chance to appear in Google search results. This means that when people look for products or services like yours, your site could be among the results, providing a valuable opportunity to expand your customer base.

Improve Customer Service & Productivity
A website can reduce calls from customers seeking basic information like location and hours, allowing your team to stay focused and productive. It also lets customers easily find answers on their own, enhancing their overall experience.

Company Announcements & Updates
Your website is available 24/7, making it easy to share updates and announcements with your customers. This keeps them informed and opens up opportunities for relevant upsells.

I have recently worked with FolcraTech to update our website for Little Trinity Nursery and I can say what a great service! They are professional, efficient and so helpful. I have very limited knowledge on anything IT related and I was taken through each step thoroughly, Louisa was very supportive and never once made me feel silly for asking sometimes very basic questions! I would highly recommend this company, they are very competitively priced and excellent at what they do! Thank you.

We have recently had our website updated by FolcraTech and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Our point of contact was Louisa and to say she has the patience of a saint is an understatement. She is professional whilst being friendly, and when listening to requests and ideas from us always gave alternative options for a better online identity. The team worked hard to amend and produce a website for a non-standard business and we couldn’t be more grateful for their brilliant communication all the way through. The real point where Louisa and FolcraTech shine is the aftercare process. She is always available to help with queries which has been invaluable. We would not hesitate to recommend FolcraTech to anyone.
