How are we Different?
One thing that sets Website Muscle apart from the competition is our complete website customization. Website Muscle does not lump its services into “packages” that companies must choose from. We do not want you to purchase anything you don’t need or desire, so our services are tailored specifically to your business marketing needs. After a simple consultation where we learn about your company and answer all your web design and marketing questions, we make recommendations for how best to utilize the internet to draw attention to your business, and we go from there. We will be completely honest with you and will not push you into something your company does not need.
Content Writing
Another thing that distinguishes Website Muscle from the competition is our ability to provide content for your site. Most small business owners are incredibly busy. Being small business owners ourselves, we understand that and are happy to provide this service for you. We have well-qualified content writers and rest assured, all content is subject to your review and approval.
Hosting
Many people ask if Website Muscle provides hosting for websites. The answer is No, and here’s why: When a company provides hosting for a site, that company retains total control over the site. The implications can be very frustrating. For example, should you decide to hire a different company to service your website, you must retrieve information from the hosting company and transfer hosting to a different company. Many companies are nearly impossible to reach and some will even shut down the site rather than give you the information. At Website Muscle, we believe you are entitled to all information from the get-go. We avoid any appearance of impropriety by purchasing hosting through safe, popular hosting companies like GoDaddy and BlueHost which provide 24/7 customer support. Although we do not provide hosting ourselves, we are happy to set it up for you.
Online Marketing
Lastly, we stress the importance of online marketing in conjunction with web design. Yes, having a clean, modern, visually appealing website is important. However, a website can have all the bells and whistles but if it lacks the proper search engine optimization, that site may be virtually invisible to Google. That means that even if your site is there, no one will find it - and you will be the only one visiting your site! We believe web design is just the first step. We create professional, user-friendly websites and then we make sure your potential customers can find it! We are experienced at search engine optimization and taking advantage of the many resources on the internet to increase your site’s visibility with popular search engines like Google.
Specific for Small Businesses
Being a small business ourselves, we speak your language. We listen to your concerns and goals and equip you with the information necessary to make the best online marketing and website decisions for your business. We will gladly evaluate your existing website and let you know if it is visible to the online search engines. Remember: no matter how many bells and whistles your website has, if your website cannot be found, it is of no value to you.
Feel free to call or email us with your online marketing or website questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
