Starter Websites for New Businesses
What’s a starter site, you ask? Your starter site is a simple seed that you plant digitally that grows as more people visit it to patronize your business.
Every business needs an online presence for the trust and credibility factor. If people can’t find you online after a quick search, they may question your legitimacy. A potential alternative is a Facebook page, which can technically work for you whether or not your audience has a Facebook page. However, this is not the ideal track to take if you want to collect the non-personally identifiable data that will help you make data-driven marketing and business decisions, nor will you have an audience to cultivate and retarget with great deals or new announcements. To do so, you’d need an analytics pixel and a Facebook pixel installed on your website.
That’s where a starter site comes in. In Avid’s world, a starter site is a one-page website that includes the basics: Images and descriptions regarding what you do, hours, phone number and a contact form for business inquiries. This is where we set the foundation for growth—whether you’ll need to grow into a robust eCommerce website or handle all bookings/reservations online or have a portfolio of projects. We can also set you up with a domain name that reflects your business name, plus a business email using that domain to help further validate your online presence.
