SMALL BUSINESS WEBSITES   •   March 12, 2019

As I’m sure you know by now, your business’ online presence either works for you or it doesn’t. Users have become accustomed to quick, clean, and mobile. If your website is missing any of these, your potential business is being lost to your competition. While a custom website may seem to be what you need to get all the bells and whistles to bring in that traffic, think again. As a small business owner, a WordPress website can provide the quick, clean, mobile website along with all those fancy bells and whistles you have been seeing your competition offer.

WordPress is a versatile, user-friendly content management system providing you can easily create and modify both the content and media of your website. Some other reasons are…

  • Peace of Mind.
    WordPress is consistently updating itself for both security and safety. Your website will work to keep its systems functioning better and more secure for both you and your visitors. The WordPress security team is constantly working to make your website more secure resulting in a much more secure website than if you were using a custom or other Content Management System.

  • SEO Friendly
    Search engine optimization is on the top of the to-do list for most, if not all, business websites. WordPress takes the headache out of making your website more search engine friendly. SEO knowledge is no longer required to get to the top of the search engines. There are several options to help you get started with your WordPress SEO.

  • Standard Coding
    Most small business owners will hire a web developer to design and develop their website. Depending on the website and how it is created, this could cost the business owner a large amount of money. With WordPress, the coding is standard, making it simple for any developer to get in and get whatever job is needed, done quickly.

  • Style is Endless
    WordPress is extremely versatile with regards to design and layout. Just because the place a few doors down also has a WordPress site, does not mean yours will look or function anything like theirs. There are thousands of designs and layouts to choose from and each of those can be modified to fit exactly what your business needs.

  • Bells & Whistles
    Plugins are your best friend. From contact forms to product layouts to news articles, plugins have you covered. You no longer need to pay for the hours of work by a developer to create that new feature you saw on another website. WordPress plugins are plug and play. With a little configuration after installing, you have a new feature that is sure to impress your visitors.

  • Editing Your Own Content
    The days of paying a developer to modify this paragraph on that page are over. With WordPress, you can now modify all content and media on your website without the need of any third-party software. WordPress is not only easy to use, but it’s easy to learn. Coding skills are no longer needed to add/edit/remove content on your website. Uploading videos just became a cinch!

  • eCommerce Solutions
    WordPress makes ecommerce simple. Whether it’s a single product with multiple variations, a handful of products, or many products that all come in different sizes or colors, WordPress has you covered here too!
