Do I Need A Website?

You might ask "do I need a website?", "what advantages does a web presence offer to me or my business?". There are numerous reasons why even the smallest of business' should have a website, all of which can contribute, directly and indirectly, to that business' commercial success, providing you have appointed the right website designers to carry out your project.

If you have a business, you should have a website.

You should at the very least have a presence on the web so that potential customers can quickly and easily find out more about your business, where you are located, how to purchase from you and the products or services you have to offer.

Web Things - Website Designers Wexford - Some Irish Internet Facts

Over 69% of Irish people are regular Internet users. This is forecast to reach 75% by the end of 2009 and 82% by the end of 2010.

Ireland is ranked 10th (per capita) in the world for online buyers.

25% of Irish people expect to spend more online during 2009. This figure is expected to increase significantly during 2010.

50% of Irish people will at least research their intended purchases online before making a purchase in traditional shops.

Now – can you afford not to have a website?

Even if you do not intend to sell goods online over 50% of Irish consumers now research the Internet for the products they intend to purchase before making a decision on what store to visit and purchase their desired product.

One other factor to take into consideration is that the Internet has leveled the market place when it comes to small business’ competing with even the largest of business’. Remember, with a professionally designed website, using the right website designers, your business is no longer based in Wexford, but accessible world wide.

Exception to the Rule

There is however, in our opinion one exception to the rule – it is better to have no website at all rather than a website that has been created and designed badly and does not adhere to the recognised and recommended web standards.

Remember, your website may be the first encounter a potential customer has with your business – first impressions last. Your website must reflect your business as credible and professional, convincing any potential customer that it is you they want to do business with. You must have a professional-looking website if you want to be taken seriously. If your website looks like it was designed by a barrel full of colour blind monkeys, your chance at making a good first impression will be lost.

"A Website is now a Necessity"

If done right, a website is no longer a luxury but a necessity, offering a cost effective opportunity to increase sales through increased market awareness of products and or services, access to new worldwide markets, budget friendly advertising techniques / opportunities, direct online sales, increased customer or client satisfaction and service, increased credibility and a keener competitive edge - no longer do people ask for your fax number or your business address, but your email address and website address - remember if your current or potential customers or clients cannot find a website for your business, chances are, that they will stumble upon your competitors website. If you don't have a website, you're losing business to competitors that do.
