Businesses Neglecting Websites
A survey from design and marketing company Netflare has revealed some shocking results. Small businesses across 19 different sectors were surveyed and: – 23% said their sites hadn’t been updated since their launch leading to inaccurate and obsolete content – Only 8% even had an eCommerce element to their site – 25% had no way of tracking online sales – 38% didn’t have a budget at all for updating their sites
These are obviously big obstacles to making money online. You would think any of these things would be a given, but clearly they are not, and are being overlooked by many businesses.
We can work in conjunction with your website, and other advertising mediums to help get your business message effectively across.
