How to create your company website
How to create your company website – FREE
Once you’ve done your research, tested the market, created a business plan and decided on your business name and logo, create a website. It’s where potential and existing customers go to check that you are a legit company.
How complicated the website is, is up to you. If you can have customers buy directly from your website, that’s brilliant, but if you just use it as a marketing tool to tell people about what you do, then that’s also important.
You don’t need to spend thousands of rands on building a website. You can even do it for free if you are a little savvy with the computer.
Where can you get a website for free?
There are a number of companies that offer free websites. You can create them yourself, and save a lot of money. The way they make money is by charging you for registering your domain if you don’t want a generic domain.
It’s more professional to register a domain, and it costs about R159 per year. This will change your domain from something like www.yola/sandtonlandscapers.com to www.sandtonlandscapers.com.
