Do you have a website?

Does your small business website bring customers to your door? Or… is your website old and outdated?

Sending potential customers to a website that isn’t helping to grow your business – is a waste of time, money and branding.

In fact… you might be loosing money that you could be putting directly into your pocket!

What if you don’t have a website that markets your Yuma small business? My first question would be “Why Not”?

How are you spending your advertising dollars? Are you depending on radio, newspaper ads or the good old doorstop called the Yellow Pages? If these are the only marketing options you are using… you might be leaving a bucket of cash on the table.

Websites are your silent marketing machine. If don’t have a website that can be found for local (geo targeted)internet search terms… how will your new potential customers find you?

Maybe they do find your website online – what then? What is your call to action? What do you have on your website to capture leads? Are you building a loyal community of clients that will recommend your business before your competition?

Are you getting the BIG picture? Do you even know how this website optimization works? Did you know that the word “Yuma” is used for online searches over 330 times a day? That number will grow every year – the internet isn’t going anywhere.

My parting question for you is… what internet search phrase is used to find your local Yuma business? If it’s the name of your business… you are allowing potential customers find your competition.
