Why your small business needs a website and local SEO

Small businesses and start-ups can fail without web design and management

Yes, we are web designers and so we probably would say that. We have opened with a bold statement, but we’re ready and willing to back it up! If you’re curious to know how, read on.

Your dilemma

You understand that your small business or start-up needs a website, it needs to be found on Google. But it’s something you maybe don’t have the time or the know-how to do yourself. Web design companies keep talking about SEO, PPC, HTTPS, and other bits of jargon that they just expect you to know or care about. And then it’s as clear as mud.

Friends keep advising you to use one of those free website builder tools or to ask their nephew to do it all for you. But you suspect you’d get what you pay for… And you’d be right.

Your solution

At HungryWolf®, we don’t expect you to know it all already. And we don’t use unnecessary jargon all day to make us feel clever. We’ve got better things to do, like designing and building beautiful websites that can be found easily online, and building beautiful relationships with our customers.

Getting small business owners online

You’re probably familiar with traditional methods of advertising, like a logo decal on your vehicles, print ads in the Yellow Pages, and so on. So, why do you need a website as well? It turns out that most people now check a company’s website automatically as a basic way to check its legitimacy. And AwesomeLawn.co is easier to read and remember than “0155 554 4437” when you are doing seventy on a motorway. But you probably knew all this, or you wouldn’t be here!

In addition to building you a website, we’ll help you get found in Google’s search listings and local business directory, using SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) techniques. Yes, sorry, that was jargon. But we’ll explain immediately! SEO just means “getting found on Google” and local SEO means “getting found on their maps that show businesses in your area”. We’ll even help you get to grips with social media like Facebook, Twitter, and the rest. Pretty soon your brand will be one of the best connected around!

If you’re a startup company, you might understand the need for effective web design services already, but find yourself too busy creating your business. That world-beating idea needs your constant attention, so you need a competitively-priced expert with great customer service and trusted local SEO methods to do it for you. That’s HungryWolf® to a T!

The next piece of the puzzle: Web Management

We won’t just build you a superb website then leave you in the lurch once it’s online. We offer web management services that help you keep your website maintained and running smoothly. This ensures great results and really gives you a return on your investment. The “If you build it, they will come” attitude that many have about websites is false. For good local SEO results, you need to keep your site and associated search engine listings ticking over.

How will this affect your business?
