Why Business Web Sites Fail

When the Internet became an important part of our culture, many business owners wanted to get their piece of the pie right away. In the late 1990s and beyond the year 2000, most small to medium-sized businesses wanted to get their own site and boost profits quickly!

Although this was a smart move for virtually every business, it often did not bring the desired results.

So what’s the problem? Why do most business websites fail?

Simple.

Most sites are created by “artists” who create a visual presence that inspires their business owner clients and promises an impressive image online.

Image is helpful, but unfortunately it’s not everything.

Now that the Internet and the World Wide Web are playing even greater roles in the lives of the everyday customer, having a business site is incredibly important.

Yes, your business site should look great. Image does help. Customers are more likely to enter a real-world store if the building looks nice and the entrance is inviting.

But what if that nice looking restaurant was very difficult to navigate once the customer is inside? What if no one is ready and waiting to lead the customer to a table? What if menus are unavailable or poorly organized?

As you might imagine, the same rules apply to business web sites. An effective business site must look nice AND funnel your customers with effective and proven marketing built into the design. And - perhaps more importantly - an effective business site must include lots of behind-the-scenes elements that encourage major search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN to funnel customers your way.

This is where most business owners need help today. That’s why I’m here to help.
