Has anyone ever told you, “Hey, don’t you think you need a website for your business?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our world today, what makes a business a frontline brand is vastly different from what it may have been a decade ago. The meaning of content marketing<\/a> and what it entails has changed drastically. Direct mails, newspapers, radio advertisements, and so on \u2013 all of these now serve little or no use for creating business visibility. Today, consumers are attracted to more creative and trendier ways of selling your business. Already, there are probably a thousand and one companies doing what you do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019d need to be more intentional and strategic if your business must continuously remain the customer\u2019s choice.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Essentially, no one should continue using old advertorial tricks and expect meaningful conversions. Better put, no one should remain stuck to only one brand promotion method and anticipate dynamic results. Like there were different marketing methods in the good old days, there are also many today. In fact, there are almost three times more brand promotion options than there were fifteen years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talk of email marketing, online ads, social media marketing<\/a>, video content marketing<\/a>, referral techniques, and lead magnets, the list of brand marketing strategies is inexhaustible. One advantage this has is that it allows you to determine what methods could work best for your business. Especially after you have considered your audience and other important factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 If there is anything a contemporary business owner should not forget when aiming to promote his products or services, it is the power of the internet. Perhaps, the internet is one thing that has received the warmest embrace on planet earth since the past twenty years. Within the past two decades (2000 to 2021), global internet usage has increased by <\/a>1,331.9%. Between 2010 and 2011 alone, global internet usage increased by a whopping 480.4%<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly, Africa and Asia are experiencing the most rapid growths where internet usage is concerned. Of all African countries, Nigerian tops the list in terms of exposure to the internet. Most especially, the country leads in harnessing the power of the internet for digital marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Could This Mean for Your Business?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If 65.6%<\/a> of the current world population is already exposed to the internet and most African web traffic is being generated from Nigeria<\/a>, what could this do for your brand?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

It could only mean one thing: if you want the highest brand visibility results for your business, you cannot put the power of the internet out of focus. And while you are trying to use the world internet statistics to your advantage, you will also need to ask this cogent question: how do people use the internet the most?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although most social media platforms are connected to the internet, the highest percentage of internet usage comes from the global population constantly surfing the web. Perhaps, a significant percentage of internet users will surf the web for fun, but more are doing it intentionally. When they surf the web, they search for important information, feed their curiosity, find answers to questions, and order goods and services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you consider all of this, you would agree that a website is a necessary tool every business in the local market must utilize to thrive. Essentially, having a website is effectively tapping into your local market space. Like a shop space in a vast market, a website can grant you a space of your own, and from there, millions of people all over the world can reach you and your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why a Website is Important for your Small Business<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You could rush right away to create a website for your business, but that would be a blind move. First, you must clearly understand how a website would help your business. The statistics show you how much attention a website could draw to your brand. However, much more than the traffic, a website is immensely beneficial to your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the top 7 reasons why  a website is important for your small business:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
