So it’s time to create a web presence, and you’re not sure where to start? That's okay! We’re here today to take you through some of the main points that you might want to consider when deciding whether or not to start with a landing page or go full send on a website.
Business structure
Are you a solopreneur, small business, or a large organization? This is a quick determining factor that might help you decide whether or not you can start with a one-page website or a full website. For a small business or solopreneur, a one-page website with contact information might suffice. But for a larger business with multiple contacts and departments, it may be best to begin with a full website.
Budget
If budget is a barrier, it is better to start with a one-page website instead of no website at all. Instead of waiting until you can afford a full website, a one-page site will help you create a professional web presence on a platform that you own and can help facilitate growth that will bring you the budget to expand the site in the future.
Products or services offered
If you are a product-based business, you may need to go full send on the full website in order to have shoppable product pages with images, descriptions, and a checkout. However, if you’re a service provider who accepts payments via invoice, a one-page site may be an affordable and simple option to serve as a contact form with brief descriptions about you and your services.
No matter which type of site you choose, make sure that it’s branded and designed with SEO best practices in mind so that it’s doing as much work for you as possible.
