Do I Really Need a Website?
There’s no way around it. It’s difficult to be taken seriously if you don’t have a website. Building a beautifully designed site with compelling content should not be the goal for many businesses.

- It allows you to carefully craft a message and emphasize your “brand”
- It’s accessible to anyone in the world with an Internet connection
- It’s open 24/7
- It allows for virtually unlimited material to be stored and displayed
- It provides an easy way for viewers to learn about you and your work
- It allows new people to discover you
- It has the potential of keeping past clients/fans engaged, building trust and enthusiasm over time
