You'll Never Believe How Many Small Businesses Don't Have a Website

Over 55 percent of small businesses don't have a website.

We’ve heard it countless times before, and it has been true every time: we are living in a digital age. Everything we do in the world of business is intertwined through digital technology. Smartphones allow us to always be connected to our business and our customers, search engines give us the opportunity to get the most out of our advertisements, and the Internet lets us connect with infinitely more potential customers and partners than we would have been able to have in the past. Yet, despite how vital it is for a business to take advantage of these technologies, one staggering statistic holds many small businesses back.

According to a recent survey by Google and Ipsos, more than 55 percent of all small businesses don’t have a website. No business can reach its full potential without a website to connect with their customers. It allows people to learn more about you, and lets your business develop and advertise its own unique brand. Whether your business is an up and coming health club, a new furniture store or a dentist opening up a new practice, having a website is absolutely crucial to compete in your business’ industry.

Small business owners who don’t have a website listed various concerns and reasons for not starting one. One of the major worries they had was that it would cost too much.
