Hey IC (Intenet Critic), decided to take a break for the weekend, but I, Jesse Guarascia moderator of this blog, is still here to enthroll you. Ok that's enough trying to be smart and onto my point.
Well when you take a stroll down internet lane, you tend to see websites for buisinesses you've never heard of but in all honesty do you ever think to look at them. I mean really, do you care if Oshweken Toys and Electronics has a sale, of course not. When I look at the most searched sites on Google I see Youtube, Amazon, Yahoo, and of course the #1 reason people go on the internet, porn, but never DeRosaOnline.
Where I live, Hamilton, there are alot of small businesses ranging from barbers to painting services, some of them will eventually get out there, look at McDonalds, once a small buisness started up a decade or so ago, now it's a multi-million fattening corporation. Some major retailers for clothing, video games, and toys, don't even have websites, EBGames Canada holds no information whatsoever other than the price of some of the older games, where as EBGames.com has information, pricing, and hell even user reviews.
On the other hand if you're already a huge corporation to start off with much, much before you even start a site, you will get big hits if you advertise in your stores, do contests, and even give people the chance to submit content onto the site. Look at Teletoon.com and .ca they both have games, to keep the children enthrolled to their site of course, contests, to keep you coming back to the site to see new contests, and previews and such on new shows their showing. The marketing buisness is the #2 reason buisnesses, both large and small alike, make websites.
The #1 reason would be, to expand your business. If you have lets say 5 offices in the country, your not giving a widespread apeal, but if you have 50 offices nation wide you're gonna get looked at. Most new businesses can't afford that kind of investment, so to get noticed they have 1 of 2 options. 1 they can start giving out posters and T-Shirts to people who come in and they get advertising without having to pay the advertiser, or 2 they can start up a website at the cost of the registration fee, and probably a website engineer unless you know someone that will do it for free.
Building a website is becoming easier and easier, you just hit up a hosting website, sign-up with an existing e-mail, then choose the layout and design and your done, think about how many people go to a place where they want to know something about, to how many people just go ahead and Google it. Probably 20/80, but that's why if you have a couple of offices or buildings at your disposal you can get people that don't already know about your site .
Anyways that's all I have to say this Saturday, thanks for reading and IC will be back Monday for all of your internet and video game news.
