Small business owners often feel they don’t need a website or too much work and a waste of money. However, now more and more business owners realize that having a website is necessary and a great advantage.

Some entrepreneurs might even believe a Facebook page is enough for an online presence or that a WhatsApp Business page is all they need to sell products or gain new customers. With recent trends in technology, a professional website isn’t an expensive luxury or a frivolous endeavour – it’s an affordable, fundamental tool that every company needs.

Here, Smartpreneur looks at five reasons why your business needs a website:

1. Use your website as an anchor for your marketing
With a website, small businesses can expand in the market and reach out to new customers. It gives you a chance to “pass your card out” to thousands online. For instance, with an e-commerce store, you can sell items online and ship the product to customers almost anywhere in the world. You might discover that customers in a neighbouring city or state are interested in your services, leading to a larger service area and maybe even expanding to regional offices.

2. Take your business to centre stage and global attention
Your website for local business can act as a digital brochure, sharing up-to-date information about your offerings, as well as a direct sales tool. You can promote and sells your products or services to anyone across the globe. It can also serve as a pointer for investors and would-be global partners.

3. Connect and keep a database of customers
A website can help your business to connect with new customers and keep a database of existing customers. Unfortunately, without a website for your business, you have very little control over that happening outside your network.

4. Build business’ credibility
A website makes your brand look legitimate, professional and credible. Customers can easily navigate the web pages, check stores, and even order and make online payments.

5. Help you compete with big brands
Website helps to provide an excellent opportunity for local businesses to connect with local customers. A website not only helps small businesses promote and sell their products and services, but it also allows them to distinguish themselves from their competitors, especially for customers who rely heavily on the Internet to learn everything about a company. This makes a website one of the most critical business assets for sharing information, building credibility and standing out in crowded marketplaces.
