Do You Really Need a Website If You Have Facebook?

Facebook is great. But is it enough?

Facebook Makes the Rules

When you operate a Facebook business page, you're operating within Facebook's system. The company determines the layout, features, policies, and how content is distributed.
Those things can change, whether you like it or not.
A professional website gives you greater control over how your business is presented, what information customers see, and how they contact you.

Your Business Deserves Its Own Identity

Visit a dozen Facebook business pages, and you'll notice something. They all have a similar appearance.
A professional website is different.
Your colors. Your logo. Your services. Your personality.
Instead of fitting your business into Facebook's format, your website can be designed around what makes YOUR business different.

Not Everyone Looks for Businesses on Facebook

Some customers search Google when they need a plumber, mechanic, contractor, or other local service.
A properly structured website gives your business another opportunity to appear in those searches.
A Facebook page can also appear in search results, but a dedicated website offers additional opportunities to organize and optimize information about your services.

Your Important Information Shouldn't Get Buried

On Facebook, today's post eventually becomes yesterday's news.
On your website, your services, business hours, contact information, testimonials, and other important details can remain easy to find. Customers shouldn't have to scroll through months of posts to learn what your business offers.

The Best Solution? Use Both.

Facebook is excellent for conversations, updates and community engagement. Your website provides a dedicated destination where potential customers can learn about your business and decide whether to contact you.
Facebook helps you connect. Your website helps you stand out.

At WheelSpoke Web Designs, professional websites are designed, hosted, maintained and updated with personal support.

Facebook is a great way to connect with customers. But why stop there? There's a big difference between being on someone else's platform and having an online home for YOUR business.
