Website Development
In addition to graphic design, Vermont Media Solutions also builds websites for start up businesses and established businesses looking to plug into "the cloud". Benefits to having a website include:
1) Cheaper and More Flexible Advertising
No matter how great your product or service is, without clients/customers your business will not be successful. Advertisement is the number one way that you can connect with potential customers. In the past advertisement has been expensive. However websites provide a low cost way to represent your business in a affordable and versatile way. Other than the initial design costs, the only fees that are charged are monthly or yearly data storage cost and a yearly website address (URL) registration. With VMS these yearly fees range from $10-$60 a month ($120 - $720 Yearly) depending on your website size. This is way lower than most print advertisement costs.
In addition websites integrate with other web applications, such as facebook, blogs, google ads, and more. This versatility is one of the huge benefits to having a professional website. Most "Free" sites do not allow you to integrate with these services, or if they do, they charge you and arm and a leg (maybe your first born as well) to do so. With a website from VMS we give you what you pay for, your code. With this you can ingrate any web application free of charge.
2) Convince and 24 Hours, 7 Days a Week, 365 Days A Year Representation (366 Days On Leap Years)
Your business is not always open, the internet is. Websites are a way to have your business represented all day, every day. They give you the chance to quickly and easily share things such as hours, location and product and service information when your customers need it. In addition, VMS websites come standard with five business email address to make your business image more professional. In addition if you chose a CMS(Content Management System) package you will be able to constantly update your site without the need to learn HTML or other computer code. This allows you to run daily/weekly/monthly specials, blog within your site, post special events and whatever else you need to do when you need to do it.
3) Growth Opportunity
One of the best things about websites are that they offer limitless growth. You can add an e-commerce stores, streaming video, multimedia galleries, user accounts, newsletters and so much more. This growth allows you to stay ahead of your competition giving you need additional boosts in this struggling economy.
