Google is the go-to resource for most internet searches. Some of your customers might search for your small business by typing in the name of the business or store or perhaps type in the goods or services they are seeking. Either way, to get found in Google, you need a website. And for those customers who already know your company name, the way they will find out about your business is by going to your website.
Where are you located? What is your phone number? Do you sell… whatever it is they are looking to buy? What are your hours? Do you have modified hours or procedures due to COVID-19? People seek answers via the web instead of by phone. Why not make it easy for them?
The biggest reason for having a website is that consumers have changed and now they expect a website. It’s okay to say your business is “old school” when asked about a website but often, a business without a website seems “less than” when compared to competitors that do have websites.

It might be the cost; it might be the effort. It might be concerns over security. Websites do not cost nearly what they used to and the technology available makes them attractive and very functional.
