You have a Facebook page. Why you still need a website
Most small businesses in Bangladesh start with a Facebook page. It's a sensible start: it costs little and customers are already there. But there comes a point where a page alone can't take you further.
1. People find you on Google
When someone searches "website design in Gazipur" or "cake delivery in Dhaka", Facebook posts rarely show up. A well-built website of your own can bring in new customers from search every day.
2. It builds trust
Your own domain, professional design and clear information tell customers you take the business seriously. For large orders and corporate clients this matters even more.
3. You stay in control
Facebook's rules change, reach drops, and pages can be shut down without warning. A website is your own space: what you show and how you show it is your decision.
4. Orders and payments get easier
Asking the price in the inbox, then the address, then payment: on a website that whole exchange takes a few clicks. You save time and customers are happier.
5. You can measure your ads
With analytics on your site you know how many people each ad brought and how many bought. Then you can spend the budget where it works.
Where to start
- Decide the site's main job: giving information, taking orders or collecting leads
- Register a domain in your business's name
- Choose a design that loads fast on phones, since most visitors arrive on mobile
- Keep the Facebook page; a page and a site work best together
