St. Louis Website Design, Web Development Services

"I don't really think that my business needs a Web site." We hear that a lot. The reasons that people say it are varied, and are everything from "We can't really afford one," to "We have all the business we need." But you should probably consider why you should have a Website, and then do your own calculations about whether or not it will be useful for you.

We have developed a list of the questions that your business should answer before you hire a Web developer, but here are some basic questions about why you will need a Web site. Incidentally, answering these questions about Web design and whether it is for you will help you decide the kind of goals that you should have for your Web site.

  • "Google It." - Every day, millions of Google searches bring business to thousands of businesses. People increasingly refer to search engines to answer their questions, find products they need, and find services.
  • Nearly all businesses have an online market. Whether you are an international nonprofit organization, or a corner store, people are searching for your business online.
  • Your top competitor has a Web presence. You can bet that if you do not have a Web presence, that your competitors do.
  • Your Web Site is Your Second Store Front. In comparison, a Web site has the ability to reach far more customers than a local storefront - at a fraction of the cost.
  • A Website Can Reach Most of the World's Population. If you're a retailer...that's a big deal. Seven billion people big.
  • A Web Site Doesn't Sleep. No matter what day or time it is, you can be capitalizing on the moment of sale with an interested customer. Someone's basement is leaking at 4 a.m. and they search for contractors? Search Engine Optimization with a nice Web site could give you a customer you would have lost otherwise.

Designing a Web site is more than putting code on a page. It's about representation. Translating the soul of your organization into a living, global entity.

St. Louis Web Design and E-Commerce Services

IT Disaster Recovery Services | St. Louis IT ServicesEcommerce entrepreneurs frequently earn their profits in small margins, where slight competitive advantages can be the difference between flourishing and floundering. Gaining a competitive advantage can be as simple as trying a new marketing tactic, making a subtle adjustment to your website, or operating more effectively. The ideas that grow into advantages are often planted at conferences, during webinars, or reading a white paper or case study. For this reason, it is a beneficial to occasionally get a glimpse at some of the ideas (or the seeds of ideas) that are circulating in the ecommerce and business community.

Good usability can mean the difference between one site's success and the downfall of another. Usability is especially important in the case of e-commerce websites. While most usability principles of regular websites still apply for e-commerce sites as well, the different specific pages such as shopping carts, shipping methods, shipping and billing addresses, order reviews, payment options, etc. all add another layer of complexity to creating usable online shops.
