The Importance of a Good Web Design
Your website is the hub of your online business; it is the virtual representation of your business, whether your business physically exists or not. When you do business online, people cannot physically see you as they could with an offline business. So people judge you by your appearance. And that's where good design comes in.
Imagine you were running an offline business. Would you allow your salespeople to appear in shabby or casual clothes when dealing with your customers? By dressing your staff professionally, you show your customers that you value quality. This works quite simply because first impressions count.
It is similar to your website. If your website is shoddily designed and looks like a 5 - minute snapshot, you are signaling to your visitors that you are not professional and do not value quality.
If, on the other hand, you have a professionally designed website, you give your visitors the impression that you have taken care of every detail and that professionalism is important to you. You are organized, focused and you mean business.
On the other hand, you should also have everything related to your business well designed. From business cards to letterheads to promotional brochures - every little thing is important. Because as you grow your business, these items become the face of your business. Think again of the "shabbily dressed salesman" comparison and you'll understand what I am getting at.
