There are lots of people offering cheap websites for your business and some of them giving you great designs but are they really worth it?
If you search the internet for website designers you can find companies offering you to build a website for 200 you search their previous websites and their designs look nice so should you buy one?
Well it depends on what you want from a website if you have a huge customer base and want to send all of them an email pointing to your new website so they can all see it then that is great.
If you want a website to get new customers, then a cheap website is not the way forward. There are so many people advertising on the internet now you cant just put a website up and have people find it. Search engines such as google list sites on what they feel matches their customers needs the best. To get your website up the top of the listings takes work and planning before even starting building a website.
The first thing you need to decide is what you want to be found for you may have an idea what people are typeing in but is there another phrase people are using that is more popular?
Once you have found out what people are searching on you need to build your website around these words and phrases. This not only means what the text is in the website but the menu structure and page structure.
Then comes the off site work, your site needs submitting to search engines, it needs other people to link to your site to vote for it.
So who should you choose to build your website?
You need to find a company who has experiance is Search Engine Optimisation or SEO for short and Website Design. Companies such as Springer Website Design are able to use their experiance and skills in search engine optimisation to build a site that meets the search engines criteria. The cost to build a website is not as cheap as some other companies but your website will have a good foundation and you can use their additional services to keep increasing your rankings in the Search Engines.
Yes these companies are not as cheap as some of the more basic services you can find but you need to ask yourself is it worth having a site at all if no one finds it?
