Even if you’re not selling anything, having a website for your business is essential.

One of the most important and frequently asked questions by many is

“My business is very small, not more than three employees, and we don’t sell anything online. Do I need a website?”

The answer to this question is, yes.

If you have a business, you should have a website. If you don’t have one, you’re losing business to others that do have one.

Also, don’t quickly come to a conclusion that your product can’t be sold online. Millions of shoppers are online, purchasing everything from books to real estate to natural gas. You would have only begun to imagine it, but someone may have already figured out how to sell it online.
