Attention Small Business Owners:
Are you ready to create your own customer generating website
that has a high search engine ranking,
completed in just two days?

  • Most small business websites don’t work; in other words they don’t generate leads and/or customers for the business. As a result, many small business owners I speak to think that the internet doesn’t work for their business, but in the main it is their website that isn’t working. Great local online marketing is fairly simple. Have a great website that you can regularly add fresh, relevant, useful content to, ensure the website is search engine friendly and optimised for your keywords including local keywords and promote the website online using social media. Where most small business websites fall down is that the sites are static, ‘brochure’ sites with content that rarely changes. Google likes fresh content that is relevant to the niche that the website is in. If your website has it then you are more likely to appear near the top of the search engines, if not then it will likely wallow somewhere on ‘page nowhere to be seen’. When I started my first local business back in 2005, I had no idea what made a website effective in getting me business and I started with a template website from my hosting company. I then decided to get a web designer to design my website but I didn’t get very far with that because I got stuck writing the copy. I had this thing that the website copy needed to be perfect because once it was written and online it would take time and more money to get it changed. So, because I was focusing so much on getting it perfect in the first place it never got done! And that’s the other problem that I see with local business websites – they often don’t exist! Quite often small business owners, and you may be one of them, know that they should have a website but get stuck with finding the time and/or the right words to actually get one done.

    In today’s business world a good website is a must. I already have a few websites, and they’re OK, but with inflexible designs, limited functions, and appearing nowhere on the search engines, they weren’t exactly pulling their weight. They were also getting out of date quickly because each change needed the time and services of a busy and expensive website designer.
    But just as twenty years ago even the most senior manager took control of writing his own letters by using email with its user friendly interface, so the small business owner can take control of creating professional highly effective websites using WordPress, and with Jo Dodds’ help I’ve just launched my first one. Whatever business idea I have next can be online in a matter of hours – how exciting is that?
    I’d highly recommend the Counterpoint Matters' service. Jo is both highly knowledgeable and extremely patient. The training and ongoing help make the difference between struggling and giving up, or getting to grips with it and becoming enlightened about how simple it can be and the possibilities now open to you.

    Jo set our website up in May 2009, we found her exceptionally helpful and extremely easy to do business with, nothing seemed to be too much trouble and I’m sure we drove her mad with our constant questions.
    Although I had a limited knowledge of computers I had never come across WordPress before. After guidance from Jo I mastered it very quickly and it is now second nature. We now have complete control of the admin of our site and are able to update our website daily if needs be.
    Thanks to Jo's help we are now having many hundreds of visitors a month. And being able to manage our site ourselves has saved us many hundreds of pounds. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jo. Even with a basic knowledge of computers you can master your own website with the guidance of Jo, so I have to say a big thank you to her.
