1. Do you need a good looking website? Yes. However, aside from that, strategy matters more. You should have an overall plan on how you could gain the top spot in the hearts of your customer. Don’t make websites just to have one and then forget how to manage it. Websites are there to help you gain rapport with your customers. Make it a platform where they browse, choose a product and make a payment. Credibility, reliability and security should be part of your website strategies. This will give impact to your websites.

5. Another important aspect of the business that some businesses have taken for granted is its administration. Retrieving customer data could be easier if you have organized management. You can start by creating folders where you can save emails and other files that are related. Of course, make sure that your anti-virus software is updated to avoid virus infection. Also, create back up files so that when your data are corrupted, you can still access it from other drives.
6. Consider what your customer needs and requires. Think the way your customers think so you can design your website according to their preferences. You can also ask your friends and other people to comment on your website so that you will have an idea of how your customers perceive your website.
7. Most of all, always keep up with the trends. This could keep on changing. Sometimes, in a matter of minutes, what’s trending becomes obsolete. Because of social media platforms, people like and share contents that gain favors from other consumers. You must watch out for this.
