Business Websites tell a story

Today business websites tell a story about the company or people who run the business.  The story it tells may not be true in all cases but the old saying "Don't judge a book by it's cover" has lost it's viger in our times.  The design of a website speaks volumes about how much the business owners care and believe in their own business.  A great website design gives the customer a feeling of comfort and reliability, whereas a poorly designed website gives customers a feeling of anxiety and fear wondering if they are at a safe website or some strange site that is very shady.  You never want a customer to question your business because of a poorly designed website, which is why we suggest that you stop by 3.0 Website Designs today to get your professional website design.  Make sure that the story your website tells is the story of your successful business and make your customers comfortable and relaxed when they visit just like you do when they walk into your brick and mortar storefront.

Does my small local business need a website?

Many people have asked this question over the years.  Maybe a dozen or so years ago there would have been some points on the plus side as well as the minus side.  Today however, the minus side of the chart has evaporated into thin air and the plus side of having a website has sky rocketed.  One of the biggest reasons is that nearly 80% of the people in North America use the internet.  We all get online and get our information about almost every aspect of our lives.  We look for a company website to get information about the store, what they sell, what they have in stock, prices, hours, reviews, the list could go on and on.  Let's not leave out or minimize the purchasing that people do online.  In 2012 United States shoppers spent $226 billion and it is projected that by 2016 they will be spending $327 billion online.  That is an amazing number.
3.0 Website Designs professionals have heard many times that a clients product or products can't be sold online.  We want to be sure that you are not s o quick to dismiss your product as one that can't be sold online.  In today's marketplace there's very little that can't be sold from your website. More than 20 million shoppers are online, purchasing everything from books to computers to cars to real estate to jet airplanes to natural gas to anything you can think of.  Of course we're not suggesting you close up your brick and mortar store and sell only online.  What we are suggesting is that you enhance your sales by letting new customers see your products and hopefully buy them.
The internet has a strange way of leveling the playing field when it comes to competing against the big corporations.  You can awe and amaze your customers with a professionally designed website that builds trust and excitement.  When you do that your small operation can project the image and professionalism of a much larger company.  Sometimes we see large companies that  have poorly designed websites that are hard to navigate and completely lack professionalism and credibility.  We all know to stay off that track, bad news for them but good news you!
So stop by 3.0 Website Designs to speak with a website design professional today!  Get your business website designed by the Leader in Huntsville for internet content and web development services so you can take your small business to the big game with pride and confidence.

Dynamic website design

For quite some time the internet has been evolving.  Static website designs that always displayed the same thing are being replaced by dynamic website designs that change or update frequently keeping their content fresh.  This concept of dynamic website designs keeps the users coming back to see what's new.   This is especially useful for websites that market a business because it gives you, the business owner, a way to highlight particular items, services, or specials.  We all love a good special and doesn't it make sense to tell your customers that a new special has started right on the website?  With a dynamic website you can easily do this every month, week, or even daily if you would like.
Another great use of a dynamic website is an events calendar.  If your business has classes or scheduled events it would make sense to have your site designed to dynamically update the events so when a customer comes to your page the current events are listed clearly and correctly.  Everyone visiting your website will be properly informed and know that they can come back to your site to get this schedule and when they do you can easily display more dynamic content such as the specials we just spoke about. 3.0 website designs professionals are masters of the dynamic website design.  Stop by to talk about how we can make your website more dynamic and keep your customers happy.

Professional Website Design

The purpose of a professionally designed website is to instill confidence in the site user and give them the warm fuzzy feeling that the website owner cares about their business. Studies show that countless people have abandoned shopping carts while online shopping simply because the website didn't feel “professional.” I'm guessing you too may have had that experience from time to time. No one wants to buy from or interact with a site that looks shady.
When you have a brilliant web design it will make people swoon, love you, send fan mail, share your website on social media, and most importantly, buy your awesome products.  It is very clear that to customers a professional website design is more than a pretty face, it's sort of an unspoken contract that lets them know they can trust your business and products.  Gain that trust today by stopping by 3.0 Website Designs for your website design quote.

A Big Design Makes a Small Business Standout

One of the signs of strong branding is a professional design. The iPod is a great example of this. It is under Apple’s multi-billion dollar empire however it has transcended its maker and become a brand in itself. I’m sure you know exactly what I’m talking about. When you think iPod, you clearly envision a clean looking, modern silhouette dancing against a smash of eye-popping color. You also visualize a simple, white, extremely user-friendly device that changed media—and culture—as we know it.
An 3.0 Website Designs can help your business jump in popularity just like the iPod did, and like the iPod it can stay on top of the game!

First Impressions - Web Design

We've always heard throughout our lives that the first impression is the most important. This sentiment is especially true for your business website. The first impression could mean the difference between a new customer and someone who just clicks away from your site only to visit one of your competitors. A professionally designed website will always leave a better impression than a site that looks like it was put together by a family friend's teenager who just received his first computer.
