The Importance of Professional web design
The popularity and importance of an online presence is on a continuous rise, and more and more people and businesses are realizing this. Unfortunately, most people are unable to tell the difference between a website that will compliment and build their business and it's online presence, and a website destined to be invisible to internet searchers, inoperable or malfunctioning for some or all visitors, or simply poorly designed and developed - resulting in low conversion rates. Aspects which many website designers aren't aware of and don't consider are the common differences between a thriving and profitable web presence and a website that does little to benefit the company.

- The importance of an online presence is increasing every day, and already rivals two of the traditional medias most used by local shoppers - newspapers and yellow pages.
- 43% of Internet users bought products from a retailer's offline store after viewing them on the seller's Website.
- Research shows that the average web searcher user actually spends only four seconds determining whether the site or page they landed on is what they are looking for.
