Can you believe that there are nearly 2 billion websites online?

When deciding on a website for your company, it is always prudent to study the competition.  Notice what type of pages they have and what they accomplish.  You can virtually combine a multitude of website types into one massive entity.

So, the question remains;  “What do I really need in my website?”

Only 64% of service industries and businesses have a website, even though more sales are happening on the internet than in brick-and-mortar stores. Ask yourself, “Are you trying to create an online environment that sells a product or service?” If so, will you need to itemize these on your website with or without prices? If, you chose to itemize, then first and foremost your site will be an e-commerce site. These are the most costly to set up, but they also offer the advantage of a way to sell online with the intervention of people/employees. It is basically fast, simple, and effective to buy online or at least book the service online.

If you are trying to display your product and service without the ability to shop or buy, a simpler website is ideal. This could include just a Landing Page, gallery, social media, and a contact page. This is less expensive, but difficult to change later when you grow your business. Oftentimes these websites become your only form of advertisement and become stagnate if ignored. If you hired a company like Zany to monitor it for you the content would be updated, possibly a blog could be generated where an interesting article could be found and social media content would be added daily, weekly, or as often as you want. Ideally, all websites should be monitored daily, allowing responses from clients or potential clients to be reviewed.

No article could ever be big enough to cover the vast array of possible variants when it comes to website types. So, we will end with the portfolio type of website. Often entertainers, writers, charities, and non-profits use this type of setup. First, you have a landing page that focuses on YOU. It will creatively show your greatest strengths and highlight your accomplishments. I love going to this type of website because I usually leave with a sense of awe. Even National Geography websites seem to be in this category that fills one with information, beauty, and appreciation for things that were previously unknown. Our designers love doing this type. There will be a landing page, social media, galleries, entertainment blocks, where imagination is the only limit.

To sum this up, your website can be anything you want it to be. Zany has developers, marketers, and advertising specialist that can help you design the perfect fit for your company, so your site is seen. We work hard to create a package that makes your business/company stand out above your competition, while still staying within your advertising budget. Websites should be filled with relevant information and be so attractive that customers feel like they are home when there. We take it a step further and build in keywords, links, and metadata that increases your SEO and hopefully brings in more, and more potential customers to your site. Our goal is to increase revenue while maintaining a stress-free (or at least less stress) process.
