To help you through the process, go through the following steps before you start to build a small business website.<\/p>\n<h3>Create your brand identity<\/h3>\n<p>Your website should accurately match and reflect your branding. So before you start designing and laying out your site, develop your brand identity. These details will drive the design and look of your site.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Brand colors<\/li>\n<li>Logo<\/li>\n<li>Font and typography<\/li>\n<li>Photos of your business, team, products, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Identify the primary purpose of your website<\/h3>\n<p>A small business website can serve many purposes and act in many ways, but it\u2019s helpful to know the top one or two main purposes of your site. That way, the site can be optimized for that purposes. The main purpose of your site may be to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Attract traffic and grow an audience<\/li>\n<li>Show your products<\/li>\n<li>Share what you know<\/li>\n<li>Advertise your business<\/li>\n<li>Entertain your readers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Decide what you want users to do when they get there<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s great to get people to visit your website. It\u2019s even better to give them something to do when they get there. Decide what you want your audience to do when they get to your site before you start creating it so you can lay out the content and conversion points to drive users to take action. That action could be to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sign up for your list<\/li>\n<li>Schedule consultation<\/li>\n<li>Schedule an appointment<\/li>\n<li>Buy a product<\/li>\n<li>Visit your physical business.<\/li>\n<li>Call your business<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Create content<\/h3>\n<p>You can\u2019t launch a website without at least a little bit of content.
