By Lynn Wilkinson


Today, every small business can benefit from a professional website. As more and more people look to the internet to find service providers, a small business owner can not afford to have their company overlooked. You could be losing valuable sales opportunities to your competition by not being listed on the internet. A simple one page website can easily and affordably solve this problem. Besides, as a small business owner, do you really have time to answer phone calls regarding your business hours or directions to your establishment. A one page website is all it takes to provide this information to your potential customers and portray a professional image. Below are 5 more reasons your business could benefit from a one page website:

Grow your business - Your website will be available 24 hours a day to answer questions and provide information. Who can afford to pay an employee to do that?
