5 Reasons Why Your Business Needs A Website by UGOANUMZ(m): 11:04am On Aug 03, 2018
Hello there...

Are you looking to start a business or you've already started?


Have you ever thought about the importance of having a website for your business? If you haven't, I'll tell you.


I know you probably have a Facebook page, an Instagram page, or a Twitter account and now you're wondering... "Why should I still have a website when I have all these social media accounts?"

LOL.


Let me tell you something:


Social media accounts are great to have. No doubt.


But the fact that they're free for you to use make them VERY RISKY to depend on.


You remember the saying that goes like this: 'You should never put all your eggs in one basket'?


Putting faith on just social media accounts can TOTALLY RUIN your business. No jokes.


Just a few days ago, some Twitter users woke up one morning and realized they couldn't log into their Twitter accounts.


How shocking that must have been.


Some of those Twitter users had over 100k followers. Yes. One hundred thousand followers!


Imagine your Twitter account for your business with over ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND FOLLOWERS GONE.


Just like that. Gone with the wind.


An account you worked so hard day and night to build.


Someone on Twitter board wakes up and decides he or she wants to have some fun and then goes on to suspend accounts at random.


There have been so many cases also where Facebook closed down people's business accounts for no reason at all. Same with Instagram.


That is so ridiculous, really.


But then, you can't blame these social media sites for closing your account whenever they feel like.


After all, you're not paying them any money. Or are you?


This is why you must take control of your business.


DO NOT HANG THE LIFE OF YOUR BUSINESS ON JUST SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS.


If you're serious about making money from your business in this modern and tech age, then you must get a website.


Here's why you must get a website for your business:



1.) A website is the only space you can have online and be in total control of

You can never have total control of a social media account.



2.) If you have a business and don't have a website, you are losing great opportunities for that business

Research has shown that 5 times out of 10, the moment a client is about to do business with you, they'll go online and search to see if
you have a website.



3.) Having a website shows credibility

It makes your potential clients trust you more. Anyone can create multiple social media accounts and swindle people because they are
free to create.

Don't get me wrong. People still swindle with websites but it's not as rampant as with social media accounts.



4.) A website can be used to accomplish different marketing strategies to help your business grow

With the advancements in the digital world these days, there are no limits to what you can achieve with your website.

You can track who visits your website, and items they clicked on. These data will help you provide more value to your potential
customers.


5.) A website is the center of your business' or company's online presence

Not a social media account that can be yanked off anytime.



These are just a few reasons why you must get a website for your business. There are tons of other reasons.
