Small Business Website Content
Why does your small business need a website? A website is a tool for your business. A small business website markets your business online. Meaning, it attracts new customers and keeps old ones. For your website to do this, you need to constantly maintain it, like you would a store front window. This is where content marketing comes in.
In the old days with retail stores, the storefront window would attract new customers. Think of your small business website as the retail window display for your business. Instead of mannequins and products, you have written words, pictures and videos. That is content. The more unique and updated the window display, the more new customers are attracted. Content marketing says the more frequent you ‘post’ on your website, the more customers will click through.
