Uses of websites Part 1

So what good is a website anyway? Why is it so important?

A good website will increase your presence on the web and drive traffic to your business, eventually increasing your exposure to the world and hopefully giving you more opportunities to make money. More and more people are using the internet these days to find work, services, goods and products. A website is on 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and can provide your end users with a wealth of information about you and your business. Plus, you can reach an audience outside your city limits – a website is visible anywhere there is internet, meaning you can live in Wilmington and have clients in Costa Rica!

More good uses of a website coming soon….

How to put Visio presentation online

We recently helped a local business implement a creative web solution by putting a Visio diagram presentation online.

The presentation is hosted with a 3rd party hosting company using an ip address only (this way they don’t have to buy a domain name).

The presentation is password protected and is only accessible by those with the correct permissions (username and password).

The presentation can be viewed anywhere a client or employee has internet access.
