You’re a Successful Professional and You Don’t Have a Website?

You’ve been in business for years and you’re very successful. But you never got around to setting up a website.  You got your business to where it is mainly by word of mouth and to be honest, in the old days people found you in the phone book. In this day and age having a professional practice and not having a website can be a problem in a number of areas.

You do realize that no one uses printed phone books any more. You know Google is the address book that everyone uses, including your patients, customers, prospects, and B2B partners. If you had a website and it was Search Engine Optimized properly, anyone could find you quickly on Google and Yahoo and Bing.

The average amount of time a web searcher spends on a web page is still 7 seconds. If a searcher is looking for your website and they can’t find it immediately, they can get turned off. They might wonder what’s wrong with the picture… a successful Doctor or Dentist that doesn’t have a website could seem like they are out of touch with current technology, they might be just too old fashioned or perhaps too thrifty. It leaves everyone wondering “Why doesn’t that Doctor have a website”. That becomes a focus and it’s 2009, that’s a valid concern.

Why All Professionals Should Have a Website

A website can serve a hundred purposes but as a professional you need it for some very specific reasons:

• it lends credibility to your practice
• makes it easier and faster for existing clients, patients, and B2Bs to find you
• your website is the centerpiece of any future internet marketing advertising
• it can be the #1 source for new clients
• if the website is tuned for a SEO campaign, it can expand your business
• any related news can target your website driving traffic right to your phone
• the style and logo create your branding and brand message
