Your online presence is now more important than ever:

The days of having a just a ‘simple website’ for most people who require an online presence, are passing very quickly, not only do you need a website to promote you, your products or services, you also need to maintain a social presence, via social websites such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and now Google +….. oh – and don’t forget the latest requirement of a mobile version of your website as well!

Internet access around the world is now being spurred on by much faster access speeds and the almost universal growth in internet access via all sorts of mobile devices – from iPhones and Android Smartphones to iPads and all the other tablet devices arriving en-mass from various manufacturers.

Why does this matter to you?

Many folks operate as what is as they see is ‘just a local business’ – why would they need to be online, mobile compatible etc?

Whether you’re trading on a Local, National or International scale you need to be easily found on all internet enabled devices.

Many people will be surprised that local is likely to become one of the most important sectors in the online world, as fuel and transport costs increase, so people will look closer to home for their needs, and already we see people asking for local business recommendations from social contacts on website like facebook and Twitter – the key thing to note is that people expect to find out more about you and your business via a website – so they have a fair idea if you’re what they want / need before they make further contact.

Major search engine’s such as Google and Bing will also ensure that users of smartphones will be delivered key search results which are relative to their current GPS location, let’s face it, if they provide exactly what you want, when you want it – you’ll come back and continue to use their service. Recently it’s been proven that Google already serves up different search results from a simple PC search – depending on the information they can extract from an ISP’s (internet service provider) location data on your machine.

Yellow pages and other paper based directories have become less and less relevant and shoppers now turn towards the internet as their first port of call for everything, whether searching for information, emergency repairs, bargain hunting – doing price comparisons online, or looking for somewhere to eat out, entertainment, cinema etc.

Mobile internet is now the first stop for upwards of 60% in some countries of those seeking out somewhere they will end up spending money – if you’re not there or your site can’t be found easily and viewed properly on a smartphone – then the instant gratification factor of the internet age kicks in – and the potential client simply moves on to a website that they can quickly access that fulfills their needs – NOW!
