Developing a website
Creating a basic website is relatively quick and easy to do, but there are many benefits to investing time up front in properly thinking through what you want your website to deliver for your business – both now and in the future.
A website acts like another branch of your business and it is important that it gives the right impression to your customers. It will need some time and money dedicated to it to ensure that it delivers what you want it to, but get it right, and you have a shop window to a potentially global marketplace!
Business Link Devon & Cornwall provide information to help you decide on your website strategy, including:
- the benefits of setting up a website
- the costs involved
- how you can make money from your site.
A second briefing, 'designing your website', explains how to put your ideas into practice:
- deciding what your website is for
- deciding whether to do it yourself
- organising and presenting your material
- maximising the site’s impact.
