Are you still not convinced that social media, or as we like to say social marketing in the business world is just a fad? Do you think while Face Book and Twitter are currently all the rage they may be gone tomorrow?
Well, I’m not really sure that anyone really knows the answers, but what I do know that many small business owners are at risk of loosing market share and are behind the curve when it comes to having social marketing tools on their websites. Social marketing is affecting buyer behaviors and to use social media effectively, you first need to have a communications platform that supports it and can be optimized by it. That’s why we support and promote WordPress as our number one recommended content management system for small business. This is not to say that WordPress isn’t a great choice for mid-sized and big business, because it is. In fact with over 600 million users world-wide and growing WordPress is becoming a household word in the blogosphere.
For the purpose of this post, a WordPress professional website for small business owners will be our focus. WordPress is affordable, technically light-years ahead of older static websites and is by nature an Search Engine magnet. Originally designed for non-technical users that need to get in the game WordPress offers small business owners a simple to use interface called a dashboard that allows you to simple add a post, write a blog, change a date, add a phone number and even upload picture or video without having to call a programmer or an IT help desk.
Is it time for your small business to get in the game? Check out this video and I’m pretty sure you be convinced.
