Website Construction...Why You Need One

     Why do you need to build a website for your business? As mentioned in another category about Google Places, over 90% of all consumers are using online search to locate local businesses. Over 70% of all online searches are being used to find local content in their area. Google has also assumed that any searches for "my city dentist" should provide local results, and rightfully so. If you live in one part of the country, you don't want to find a dentist located all the way across the country!

     So, that brings us back to the reason you need a website. If you are offering products or services, then you need to be found online, since that is the way most consumers are searching to find an answer to whatever need they have. You can also have a way to track the effectiveness of your website in bringing in new customers, as opposed to other forms of advertising such as newspaper ads, phonebook directories (you know who you are), or radio and television!

     Having your own website can also be much less expensive than other forms of advertisement. You will need to purchase a domain name (this would be the location, name, and information about your business) and website hosting (this would be your space on the internet...your online real estate). If you consider the lifetime value of adding just one paying customer, then your cost becomes insignificant. Oh by the way, this piece of online real estate is open 24 hours, 7 days a week, 365 days a year!

Google Places

     Just about everybody uses Google to locate local businesses, either form their desktop PC or from the new smart phones. According to Google, over 90% of consumers use the search engines to find local businesses online! Also, over 70% of all online activity is related to local information.

     If you are a local business owner, this means that you are being found through the search engines and thus providing you with walk-in traffic, inquiries made by telephone, or online sales. While most companies are spending their time and money on services such as SEO (Search Engine Optimization), backlinks, or social media campaigns, which are excellent, by the way, most companies are overlooking a simple but very effective method for grabbing new customers.

     Google Places was offered by Google a few years back to put local businesses "on the map", so to speak. Google created this to allow all businesses, from the smallest to the largest, from the smallest budget to unlimited budgets, to present all of their relevant information in one central location. To this day, over 2 years after launch, most businesses are not using this service, usually from not knowing about it altogether, or just simply not taking the time to do it!
