Small Business, Big Web World

I have now been in my own business for about 9 months and finally got around to getting my own website up and running. Check it out www.tourismunplugged.co.nz . It's been a challenge as while I consider myself reasonably tech savvy, I am NOT a website builder. And we know that every business worth its weight has some kind of web presence.

So, the search for a cost efficient solution ensued. I came across www.2day.com via that wonderful google search engine, offering a great deal on constructing your own website. It was easy to follow, easy to use with great back up people at the other end of the phone and no shortage of support. So for any of you struggling with creating a web presence, this is certainly worth a look at.

I expect calls to flood in now! Seriously, a web presence for me is about reinforcing my position and allowing potential clients to get to grips with the services I offer. For me, this business is about relationships so I will continue to network, network, network. At least I can now say I have another tool to promote my business... and it didn't break the bank.
