• Why do I need a website for my business?

  Put simply, if you don’t have a website then, for many people, you don’t exist. Your potential customers are all using the Internet day to day, so you need to have a presence on there to ensure they find you. It’s also a way of showing you’re a legitimate and trusted business, a reputable professional able to hold your own in a busy and competitive market.

• Why do I need a professional email address?

  If you send emails from a business address at your own domain name, it immediately appears far more professional than if you were using a random free address. It’s a way of reinforcing your brand identity and spreading your name around. People will be more likely to remember a domain-based email address than one that is just random characters.
