Making a professional website isn’t as difficult and expensive as it used to be—especially with the existence of platforms like UnionBank GlobalLinker. According to We Are Social’s 2018 Digital study, Filipinos spend an average of 3 hours and 57 minutes online, making the Philippines the country with the biggest online presence. As entrepreneurs, we should know how to use this fact to our advantage.

Should you setup a website for your business? These benefits should convince you.

The Whys

There are a few but strong reasons why setting up a website for your business is a must. These include the following:

• Credibility: A Stanford study concluded that 75% of customers base credibility judgments on web design. Making social media pages for your business is a normal thing nowadays, but a professional website with a personal domain tells of the dedication of the entrepreneur in connecting to their audience.
  
  
• Accessibility: Entrepreneurs who create websites give their customers different channels to connect with them. Businesses can still get leads even after operating hours, as long as they have online channels (like the website) that their market can reach.
  
  
• Cost-Effective Discoverability: Digital advertisements are arguably less expensive than the traditional forms of advertisement on print and media. Creating a website gives your business a competitive advantage over others that are not as easily searchable online.
