🚀 It’s Time to Level Up:
You Need a Website!
Your quiz results are crystal clear—your business is ready for a website. A professional website isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s your foundation. Whether you’re looking to attract leads, showcase your portfolio, or scale your offerings, a well-optimized website will give you the credibility, visibility, and control you need to grow.
Here’s why this matters:
- Control: While algorithms are at play with search engines like Google, a website still offers unmatched control over your brand and visibility. Done right, it’s a source of organic (read: FREE) traffic and evergreen leads. Plus, if you’re in the mindset to grow and scale, you can even amplify your reach with paid ads.
- Credibility: Nothing screams “I’m serious about my business” like a professional website. It shows clients and customers that you’re legit and serious about your business.
- Scalability: As your business grows, your website can grow with you—think lead capture forms, payment gateways, or even a shop front for your products.
- SEO Advantage: WordPress remains the gold standard for SEO. It’s modern, secure, and endlessly customizable, making it the best option for long-term success. And no, WordPress isn’t as scary as it used to be—gone are the days of clunky templates and risky setups.
Platform Recommendations:
- WordPress
If you’re serious about growth, skip Squarespace and go straight to WordPress. Why? WordPress gives you the SEO edge, unmatched flexibility, and a solid foundation for scaling your business. It’s easier to use than ever, and modern tools make setup simple and secure. - Squarespace
If you’re just starting out, Squarespace is an okay place to dip your toes in. But fair warning: its SEO limitations mean you’ll need extra marketing muscle to drive traffic. Pair Squarespace with platforms like LinkedIn, Instagram, or Pinterest to make sure your audience finds you. To get visibility, think of it as Squarespace + marketing platform of your choice + the content your customers want.
Key Considerations (Optional Additions):
- Email Service Providers: How will you capture leads? Tools like ConvertKit, Flodesk, or Mailchimp integrate easily with WordPress or Squarespace.
- Site Functionality: If you plan to grow and scale, think about blogging, integrating with social platforms, or creating a shopfront down the line.
- Payment Gateways: Planning to sell a product or service? Stripe and WooCommerce are the industry leaders for making transactions smooth and professional.
- Calendar Integration: Make it easy for potential clients to book meetings or sales calls directly from your website with tools like Calendly, Acuity Scheduling, or integrated Google Calendar links.
