44% of Small Businesses Without Website
A recent Nielson online report showed that 44 percent of small businesses do not have a website. Most of the others don’t know how to use their website effectively in their marketing plan.
That’s a shame.
Because 82 percent of consumers and small businesses use the internet as a large part of their buying decision.
You are losing new customers if you don’t have an effective marketing strategy using the web.
Think about your own usage of the internet. Are you going to the yellow pages to find services or do you instantly go to Google?
81 percent of us go online first.
And, the search engines are responding by making local search even easier. Google in particular has taken the lead in making local companies available for their consumers.
Did you know that 30 percent of searches now have the name of a city in their keywords. People aren’t looking for “florist” anymore, they’re looking for “Riverside florist.”
That means you have a HUGE opportunity.
