The Low Down on What Small Business Websites Need to Achieve Success Online

You know your business needs a website, but you have no idea what your website should include. Sound familiar?

If you're feeling a little lost as to what the best website design is for achieving your company's online goals, you're not alone. While the Internet offers an incredible opportunity for attracting new leads and sales, determining what your website needs to first be found online, and then what you've got to do to compel site visitors to become your customers, can seem like an impossible hurdle.

At Saltmedia, years of experience and loads of super slick, small business websites later and we've got a good grasp of what the best website designs look like for businesses in any industry. For starters, 100% custom is the only way to go; your business is unique and your website should be, too. From there, first impressions are vital. Studies show that consumers are more likely to make a purchase from a business if their website expectations are met.

If you're keen to 'wow' visitors with a website that not only looks impressive and provides them with the information they need to see your company as an authority in the industry, your business website needs to possess several key attributes. Providing the best possible user-experience should be your ultimate goal, and this is what it's going to take:

• Mobile and Responsive Design
• Fast Page Loading – with clean code and private dedicated hosting
• Keep it Simple and Gorgeous – use professional photography
• Make it Easy for People to Contact You – use call to actions
• Great Quality Content that's Free of Grammatical Errors - and lots of it!
• Use SEO to Improve Your Website's Reach

Creating Your Custom Web Design

Custom really is key, and working with a web design company that's willing to take the time to learn about your business, create a strategy and build a site that's the best online solution for achieving your goals will always deliver the best results.
