What does the government say a website will do for your business?
According to a document written by the government small business website (http://www.business.vic.gov.au) the benefits to your business from a website are:
- attract new customers
- reduce costs, time and effort to make and process sales
- better customer service and more sales to existing customers

So according to them a website will help you grow your business by helping you with your sales.
That said what type of website do you need?
That same article also says you should create a web development brief. The web development brief is a document which answers exactly what you want from your website this information will help you find out which type of website you need. Creating this document isn’t that hard it is just time consuming to do. However we can make your life a bit easier by speaking with you and asking you the questions that would be in the web development brief so you don’t need to write it out. We could do it by phone or email. (Click here for our details)
How much will it cost?
Below are the costs that the government stated. These are the prices we generally charge for a website.
Simple Website
Generic design. Simple website with online store, feedback forms, payment processing, email and other ecommerce options. 500 to 2,000
Small Professionally Built Website
From a simple website to basic ecommerce features shopping carts, online catalogue, booking system. 1,000 to 10,000
What else did the government say about setting up a business website?
Some of the other interesting things the government document mentioned were:
- To make sure that you build a website that your business really needs
- Online customers are security conscious so be sure to create a secure site
- Once you get a website you must promote it. (If you don’t people won’t know your website exists and no one will go to it. We can advise on this too.)
