Choosing the best website system for your business

11/5/2020

 
There are far more options for building websites than most people realise. Picking the right one starts with working out what you need and want.
What do you and your business need from a website system? - Write in Danderyd
Is the site a place to reinforce who you are or is it your shop-front?

Do you need a custom design or could your branding fit into a template designed to work well on the web?

Are you looking for clients to contact you directly or customers to buy online from you?

Do you need password-protection, membership areas and online courses?
There is a solution that suits you and your business - it is worth taking the effort to find it. Write in Danderyd
 The problem with specialists

Many website designers work with one system only. They are specialists in that system, which is great when you need technical help.

What they aren't good for is helping you choose the right system for you.
Website design specialists are not good at helping you choose a system - Write in Danderyd
Choosing from the range of options
There are two main groups of website building systems that are best for your size and type of business:

1. Hosted website builders

These are the easiest to use and are the most stable options for building your website.
Pros and cons of hosted website builders - Write in Danderyd
You may have heard of Wix, Weebly, SquareSpace and One. These are all hosted website builders.

There are hosted website builders that specialise in online shopping websites. These include Shopify, Tictail,

If your business model is membership and training-based, there are hosted website builders that provide you with all you need to manage members and password-protected areas and online courses. Kajabi is a well-liked option but you see that the pricing reflects how powerful it is. Some of the standard systems, like Wix and Weebly can handle basic versions of membership sites and training online and they are far cheaper.

2. Self-hosted content management systems
These over a lot more opportunity for custom development - programming your own site elements - but this comes at a price. These really require help from a developer who specialising in the particular system. They need hosting somewhere and they need protecting. Security risks are higher, especially if you don't update the software immediately as a new update comes through.
Pros and cons of self-hosted content management systems like Wordpress - Write in Danderyd
The most well-known self-hosted CMS is Wordpress. It isn't alone, there is Drupal and Joomla, Magento and a whole lot more.

There are also custom coded sites which big companies with complex sites and a high level of security use.

Taking your marketing mobile

10/9/2015

 
Mobile what? Marketing via mobile is thankfully not just sending SMSs to your customers (and preferably not at 3am like some Swedish telecoms companies seem to do...). Sometimes, texting your customers is the right thing to do but there are other things you can do to reach out via mobile, such as:
- creating mobile responsive websites
- creating emails that work *well* on mobiles
- developing apps for your customers and prospects to use (easier than you think)

Mobiles also allow you to collect information about who is doing what with your websites, emails and apps. They send back invaluable feedback that can show you what your customers really think about your business, products and services.
