An effective web presence
But before we begin...
There are millions of websites online. Some are brilliant, many are pretty good and lots, to be frank, are fairly awful! The most important question is, however, are they effective? And by that we mean 'do they do the job they were designed for?'
For example, the Amazon website is obviously a sales website and is designed as such. The BBC News website has nothing to sell but organises a phenomenal amount of news content from around the world. Not only that but it makes it very easy to find what you are looking for.
So your starter for 10 is 'what is the purpose of your website'?
Purpose
A clearly defined purpose will go a long way to ensuring your new website is effective. Below are some examples.
- Brochure website for a retail business
- Relationship building with your customers
- Promoting membership of an organisation
- Online sales channel for an existing business
- Encouraging people to become involved in your organisation
- News and events of interest to your target audience
Defining your requirements
Once the purpose of the website is clarified we can begin to define your requirements. So, for example, a restaurant might want an online booking facility. Or a holiday home for let might need an availability checker. We offer a huge range of functionality for your website. But that functionality will be based on your requirements. That way the website will be effective and you won't be charged for functionality that you don't need. Have a look at the great features we can build into your website.
