What to do after you launch your website

You’ve made a valuable investment in the success of your business. In fact, studies show that between 70-80% of people research a company online BEFORE visiting the business or making a purchase with them. Unlike the “Build It and They Will Come” mentality, however, your website must be promoted in order to be effective. 

The launch was just the first step; now you need to shout the news (in this case, your url) from the rooftops! Here are some easy ways to start: 

• Get in the habit of sharing your website just as you have shared your email or phone number in the past. 
• Add  it to your business cards, email signatures, print advertising and newsletters. 
• Announce your new website -- and invite people to visit -- across all your social media accounts, both business and personal. 
• If you're a brand spanking new business, send a press release to your local newspaper and Chamber of Commerce. 
• Add your new website to all in-store and outdoor signage.
