We know, we know…monthly subscriptions can be a lot to swallow. And what’s worse is that everything seems to have a monthly payment associated with it these days.
For some things, like your cable bill, the reward is purely intangible. You receive entertainment in exchange for a monthly fee.
And then there’s a cell phone payment – at least this serves a practical purpose. But still, when you weigh the alternatives – a land line, email, or some other method, the cost is drastically higher.
So what’s the deal with website management?
Another monthly bill is something we all need like a hole in the head. But there are real cost savings that you will see immediately by hiring a website management company.
- Save yourself time. Your time is money. The more time you can spend finding new customers, visiting job sites, or working in the shop – the more your business can grow. To manage your website, not only would you need to spend the time learning how to create and manage a website, but then there’s the time-consuming activity of keeping it up to date.
- Keep your overhead low. Traditionally, companies that want to take their online presence seriously have been obligated to hire an in-house person to do so. This will mean tens of thousands of dollars a year coming out of your business’s bottom line. A website manager is able to do this for a much lower monthly rate.
- It’s reliable and redundant. Even if you hire a person – you still have to deal with sick days, vacations, and other stresses of managing employees. A website management company builds their systems to scale. A network of managers is available to step in any time something comes up. By managing many customers at once – they’re able to keep the cost low while staying highly reliable.
- A good website can actually earn you money. It’s true, your website’s performance is directly linked to how much attention you give it. A website manager makes your website a priority of theirs on a regular basis. They keep an eye on the health of your website and help post your updates to the world at times that will maximize engagement with your audience.
- It can also help avoid unplanned expenses. Software updates, changing online standards, and even hackers – all of these things are out of your control and have a direct impact on your website. A little preventative maintenance can help you avoid a major headache later on.
