How to build a website for your small business | DoodyCalls ...
Maintaining a strong online presence has never been more important in business than it is today. If you do not have a website for your small business, now is the time to get one started.
Building a basic website for your small business is no longer a difficult or expensive process. There are now scores of do-it-yourself website building tools available, many of which allow you to use their service for free. A few of the leading platforms out there today for websites/blogs are WordPress, Posterous, Weebly and Tumblr.
Of those four, WordPress is, by and far, the most popular. Last month, in fact, it was announced that WordPress now hosts over 50 million websites, from small businesses to prominent high-traffic blogs, such as TechCrunch, TED, CNN & the NFL. We use WordPress for all of our blogs and local franchise websites, including this one you?re reading now.
All four of the platforms mentioned above provide users with standard design templates to use free of charge. For those who want an even more customized look for your site, it?s not too hard to find a solution.
One option is to have a design template custom built, which is what we did for our local franchise blogs. The best place to find a WP designer these days is a site called Sortfolio.
Another option is to buy a pre-made premium theme. ThemeForest is a website that has thousands of beautiful themes/templates available at very reasonable prices (around $10 for many).
At DoodyCalls, we provide all of our franchise owners with turn-key blogs just like this one to help them dominate local search engine rankings; increase their online presence; communicate current and relevant?information?to their clients and vendors; and decrease their dependence on paid services such as Reach Local.
Here at DoodyCalls, we?re fully committed to providing every franchise owner with the systems, training and support they need to get their business off the ground and picking up clients. With more than 10 years of experience under our belt, we know what it takes to build a thriving local pet waste removal business, and one of the greatest components is a strong focus on Marketing. With that said, we?re thrilled to announce our?2011 Commitment to Marketing?
