In her debut article for PR Newswire's Small Business PR Toolkit, Emily Thomsen, client services -- website engagement group of PR Newswire, provides three key reasons why your small business needs a website.
- Education. Tell your brand's story with the production of compelling and relevant content. This valuable content helps to engage and connect your customers and keep them coming back for more.
- Presentation. While the actual physical appearance of your business is important, so is the look and feel of your company website. Ensure the best user-experience you can by creating an effective design and layout – contact information should be easily accessible and calls-to-action should be clearly identifiable.
- Credibility. The first point of contact with potential customers can be through your website, and credibility is vital in order to make users return. Promote conversations around your content which can help to increase your online presence.
