Website Start Up For Small Business

Website start up.

Whether you are a freelance photographer, own a small retail store, or have another type of small business, a great website is essential for your company’s success. As a webmaster who has worked on building or marketing over 100 small business websites, I know what it takes to create great and engaging business websites.

Implement the best content management system.

A content management system (CMS) is a software program or application that is used to create and manage digital content. A good CMS will help you maintain your site, and you don’t need much technical knowledge to use it.

We recommend WordPress For A Website Start Up

WordPress: WordPress is the world’s most popular CMS. It has a vast, active support community and many useful plugins to extend the functionality of your site. (And if you cannot find a plugin that does what you want, it is easy to find a WordPress developer who can make one for you!)

however, that WordPress’s biggest weakness is security—because it is so popular, hackers target it the most.

Your WordPress site needs to be regularly maintained and secured so it is not hacked. Also, it is difficult to secure every single third-party plugin, so keeping your WordPress site secure must be an ongoing commitment through various best practices (checking to see if your plugins have been updated within the past few months.

making sure it is a plugin provided in the official WordPress repository, deleting unused plugins immediately, etc.).

Create an interesting, memorable, and engaging user interface for your website start up.

Make sure your small business website interface leaves a positive impression that drives results. You can do so by implementing the following suggestions:

Use beautiful graphics and easy-to-read fonts.
Make sure your graphics are compressed and optimized for fast loading. If your website is slow, search engines like Google will penalize your ranking.
Research the competition to see how they have designed and optimized their websites; implement similar components that will work for your small business website.
Research your target audience to see what they want from your site and make it easy for them to accomplish it.
Stay consistently on brand throughout your website design.
Design an intuitive navigation system which allows users to get to the pages they need quickly.
Publish easily accessible contact information.
Incorporate obvious call-to-actions (especially “buy now” buttons).
