In today’s world, websites are about so much more than just aesthetics or being an online “shop window” for businesses. Now, websites need to function as multi-faceted marketing & sales tools that connect to an audience and allow companies to grow their businesses on auto-pilot.

First impression of your business is important

No matter who you are; if you run a business, a marketing team, or if you’re a creative, you’ll more than likely come to a point where you need a website, or someone tells you you need one and it’s time to work out how and why.

If your website looks unappealing or outdated, your audience will immediately have a negative impression of your business. They won’t find your website appealing, which deters them from your page. You’ll miss out on leads because they’ll leave your page for a competitor’s page.

 

Your competitors are doing it

You can use all the marketing tools in the world and pump thousands into campaigns but if your users don’t feel connected to your brand’s personality and the visual representation of that, they definitely wont be coming back!

Your website’s design is an opportunity for you to set your business apart from the competition. When you’re competing with other businesses, you generally have the same services and similar pricing. You need that one thing that will make your business stand out from the rest.

Independence and a wide range of opportunity

Web design is a craft that has relevance in every industry. You have the chance to make a difference in companies of all sizes – from small mom and pops to large corporate companies. Web design is and will continue to be an important and necessary skill for the online success of businesses.
