Why your business needs a website

Crucial for your marketing

In today’s ever evolving digital world, having a website is imperative for any small business. With the increasing use of technology and smartphones to access the internet, and a growing amount of people searching for products and services online, having a website is a must even for small businesses.

Your website is the focal point of your online presence, being a library of resources for potential customers to make a decision on using your services or buying your products. Being highly customisable, your website can have any custom functionality tailored for your business, from selling products online, to having custom contact or booking forms, your website will be made to fully streamline the process of a customer being able to enquire about your services or buy your products.

Looks great on all devices

Vital Component of a Modern Website

Responsive web design is the mechanism of layout and elements adjusting to different screen sizes, with smaller screens requiring a different approach to effective design. With the increased usage of smartphones and tablets over desktops to access the internet, responsive web design is becoming crucial. Layouts and elements specifically designed for smaller devices are of the utmost importance for user experience. Search engines also take into account whether a website is mobile friendly, giving an advantage in rankings to well optimised ones. All of our websites are designed to look amazing on smaller screens, have a streamlined user experience and leave a lasting impression on your visitors.

Has it been a long time since you updated your website? Do you feel as though the design simply doesn’t reflect the quality of your brand anymore?

What is SEO

Why it matters for your small business

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is performing work towards getting your website to rank higher on search engines. Getting an amazing new website is a great start, but all that work can go to waste if nobody sees it. With your new website not appearing on page one of search engines, it can be virtually impossible for potential customers to find your business. An SEO campaign consists mainly of a few components, including keyword research to find out what people search to find your services, creating new relevant pages and content on your website to correspond with the keywords, technically optimising your website for efficient code and high loading performance and lastly building your business’ online presence with techniques such as links from other websites going to your website.

Frequently asked questions

Contact us if you have any further enquiries about the web design process.

How much does a website cost?

The cost of a website can vary depending on a number of things including amount of pages and custom functionality such as an online shop. To get the most accurate price for your website needs, please contact us now.

What if I don't have content and images for the website?

Our content creators can definitely help you with writing content for your website, at times we will just need some guidance on topics specific to your business. We also have access to high quality stock photography which can be used on your website and a photographer who can take photos of your business on site.

Will my website be mobile friendly?

Absolutely. The functionality of your website across all devices is an extremely important aspect of our design. You can rest assured that it will maintain its visual appeal, ease of use and overall function to keep people engaged from end to end.

What are the ongoing costs of running my website?

Your new website will usually incur two ongoing fees, which are the hosting fee and the charge for your domain name. It’s essentially like paying rent to keep your website live, but these fees are minimal and well-worth the return on your investment. You will receive adequate notice via email when these fees are due, and while hosting is monthly, the fee for your domain name is annual.

What platform are your websites built on and can I edit them myself?

WordPress has been universally crowned the platform of choice for building websites, and we can attest to its functionality, ease of use and SEO benefits. Website training once your site goes live is a standard part of our process, enabling you to tweak your own content as often as you need to. However, we’re always here if you need for bigger changes such as creating new pages, uploading new imagery or adding additional features to improve functionality. We maintain excellent long-term relationships with our clients!

Why is a professional website important for my small business?

First impressions are absolutely everything in the online space. Stats show that it takes an individual less than 3 seconds to decide whether a business page is worth their precious scrolling time, or if their time is better spent with a competitor. The goal is for your consumer to establish an immediate connection between what they want, and what you offer—from the moment they land on your home page. In our designs, we strive to maintain engagement by creating a visually appealing, informative and streamlined process that always ends in your favour. We’ll custom-create a product that not only reflects the quality of your business, but helps you sit comfortably as the most credible option for your audience.

Do I have to be in Adelaide to work with you?

Not at all, we’ve worked with a number of interstate clients and can extend our lines of communication to email, phone, video chat or text. We’re walking examples of why moving digital is the most effective way to grow your business!

How long does it take for a website to be made?

The entire process from start to finish can take approximately 4 to 6 weeks depending on whether all the content for the website is available.

Do you offer ongoing help when a website goes live?

We can both show you how to make simple content changes yourself but also offer a website care plan which will ensure your website’s content is up to date.

Can you design my logo too?

We have some amazing graphic designers in our network who can take on the collaborative challenge of creating the perfect logo for your business. Our designers will get in contact to gather a comprehensive overview of which visual elements are most important for your business, before presenting different options. Specific colour palettes, fonts, line detailing, graphics, and of course meeting your branding expectations are all taken into account when designing your logo. It all starts with a chat, so get in touch with Empower to kick-start the process today.

Do you make websites that can sell products?

Our web developers have plenty of experience in the realm of E-commerce, and can definitely build an online shop for your products. We’ll even train you to add to your online inventory if your business evolves and new products become available! There’s a few different things to consider when it comes to E-commerce such as payment methods, product layout, post-sales processes etc. We’d love to organise a detailed consultation to hash out all your requirements to make purchasing online simple for both the consumer, and you.

Do I need a web designer?

Just like you wouldn’t build your own car without the expertise, it’s not advised that you should take on the challenge of building your own website. We’ve seen many people come full circle and reach out for a helping hand after attempting it themselves. Often, this results in an entire new rebuild. Our web developers have dedicated years to honing their creativity, technical ability, understanding of SEO and overall project management skills. We have all bases covered under the one roof, offering a service that’s designed to make your life easier. While it feels like a financial commitment at the time, we guarantee you’ll reap the reward of your choice to go professional. We know what it takes to create an effective, engaging, user-friendly website that sells!

Can I get a professional @mydomain.com email address with my new website?

Yes absolutely. We provide professional email services with Gmail, so you can login to your email as you would with a regular gmail address and respond to your customer enquiries.

What makes a great website?

A great website is one that creates that immediate connection between the consumer and what they’re searching for, followed by a seamless user experience to secure the sale. It sounds simple, but there’s so many factors that come into play here. Let us give you a few examples:

Visual engagement: The most obvious of these factors is the aesthetics. Is the branding consistent throughout your website? Is it creative and unique? Does it give off a professional feel? Are there engaging images and graphics throughout? These are important boxes to tick when developing an online face for your business.

Functionality: People are quick to move on if their patience is tested, so it’s absolutely vital that all the links, buttons and images are working, and leading people in the right direction.

Quality content: This is important for both SEO purposes, as well as giving the consumer relative information. A great website will have clear, concise, well-written content that addresses everything they need to know to make an informed sales decision.

SEO optimisation: Does Google deem your website worthy of a high ranking? The structure, layout, use of keywords & images etc all play into your overall SEO rating. Ranking high will connect more people with your product, so creating an SEO strategy is an important step in the design of a great website.

Mobile Optimisation: People are opening your website on devices of all types, whether it be a phone, tablet, laptop or TV. A great website is one that has been optimised  to adapt its design to make the user experience easy and engaging from anywhere!
