Website Development

A website is much more than what simply appears on a computer screen. Developing and supporting your online presence involves many variables, of which your website is only one. Just having a website does not ensure online success for your company. Emphasis must also be placed on having the website found, reviewing the site's web presence, analyzing online business effectiveness, and updating functionality as needed.

Businesses are using the web to communicate more effectively with their customers, share secure documents and files with vendors, train employees, and of course, sell products and services. Many traditional business functions can be managed more easily and less costly online. With lower operating costs comes increased profitability.

Unlimited Growth Potential — “Because of the tremendous advancements in internet technologies, the web offers virtually unlimited growth potential for companies of all sizes.”

One important advantage of your company's online presence is measurable results, which are derived from your business objectives. They are developed with specific purposes in mind and can be measured based on your business plan. Also, your online presence is scalable, meaning it can be expanded as your business grows.

You will see how valuable an online presence really is as you attract and communicate with more customers, expand into more markets, take more orders, reduce training expenses, and spend less time exchanging documents through the mail or with couriers. And these are only a few of the ways we at Foremost Media can help your company take advantage of the web.

Package deals work great for ordering pizza, but not websites for your business.

Should you be considering website package deals, we urge you to be very careful. For instance, an online search for "web designer" or "web development" will return literally millions of pages of businesses, both big and small, offering website packages for your business. You could pay one flat amount for a three-page site or a higher price for ten pages and a free email account. The prices vary, but the approach is the same: You decide how many pages you want, and you are given a website to match. Or, you may have to build it yourself. This simple approach sounds appealing. It works well when buying a pizza but not for shopping for an important business service.

Years ago, often a business's website was little more than an online brochure. That is what you have by buying a website by the page. Granted, modern web browsers today allow for more graphically rich layouts, but what you have is still an online brochure. It may succeed at giving prospects information about your company, (assuming they can even find your site), but the technique will not do much for your bottom line.

If your website is costing you money instead of making you money, you need to make a change. Learn more about developing, maintaining, and expanding an online presence that really works for your business, contact Foremost Media today.
