Not too many years ago, a question we heard over and over was, “Does a company like mine really need a web site?” The phrase “a company like mine” could be substituted for phrases like “as small as mine”, “with products like mine”, “with customers like mine” and so on. As the years have passed this question is less frequently asked by our customers because most businesses have realized the value of establishing some sort of web presence for themselves. With recent statistics showing that nearly 70% of all U.S. citizens are Internet users, the question of whether or not to have a web site is being replaced by questions like, “How does my company best use the web to attract customers and service existing customers?”
Today’s world of web development is much different than it was even just a few years ago. With Microsoft’s .NET platform we are able to develop powerful, feature-rich sites in a much shorter time than we could prior to using these new technologies. This not only results in a more functional site, but also in a more affordable solution. This new level of efficiency applies to everything from the smallest informational site to a large browser-based application.
In addition to realizing that you need a presence on the Internet, it is also important to understand the value of presenting a professional image that accurately represents your company. Many potential customers are doing research on the Internet before deciding with which company to do business. Today, your web site might be your only chance to make a good impression on that potential customer. Without question, there are many people and places who can put together a web site for you, but if your site looks “home grown” visitors may move on to someone whose site portrays a more professional image.
So, maybe your company has not made the journey onto the World Wide Web or maybe, like many of our recent web design customers, you have a site that was designed a few years ago. And now, that site is out of date and desperately in need of an overhaul. Either way, our team of graphic designers and programmers are ready and capable of providing you with a solution you will be proud of, at a price that will not break the bank.
