In the digital age, a well designed company website simply is not enough. While a site may be visually pleasing and easy to navigate, those factors will not help you when it comes to search engine optimization. Website reliability and speed are very crucial aspects to a website from a usability perspective as well as search engine optimization. A company website can be used to reach out to potential customers as well as add revenue through ecommerce, offer focused interaction with customers and issues relating to customer service and can provide customers with up to the minute news about your business or product. All of these beneficial website functionalities will be lost if your page is not “search engine friendly”. “Search engine friendly” means the online site can be indexed by Search and listed on search engines easily. Search engines are a primary source of web traffic, and if your site is not listed, your business will miss out on thousands of would-be customers.
