Small Biz

Having a website is a must for business owners these days.  Nobody looks at the yellow pages anymore; the first place they look for information is online.  You’ll be missing out on valuable customers if you don’t have a website.  I know all the excuses.  I’ve heard them all before.

“It’s too expensive.”

Wrong!  Our Small Biz Niche lets you have a website for only $10/month. That’s pocket change.  It’s probably not even enough to list as a deduction on your taxes (though it is a legitimate business expense).

“It’s too difficult.  I don’t know anything about computers.”

It’s easy.  If you can type a letter, you can build a website.   The Small Biz Niche uses a CMS (Content Management System) known as WordPress.    This means your website builds itself–all you have to do is tell it what to say.   You don’t need to know any code or special skills.

“I don’t have the time.”

Wrong.  We do all the hard work.  All you need is a few minutes a week to keep things up to date.   Yes, you’ll want to spend a few hours on it at the very beginning to add all the information, but that should be easy–after all, who knows your business better than you?

Here’s what you get:

  • Domain Name: That’s the name of your website, like “GeekNiche.com”.  If people already know who you are, this will bring them right to your (digital) doorstep.   By putting your website address on all of your advertising material, you can turn a small newspaper ad into a link to your entire store.
  • 1GB of Disc Space &  10GB of Bandwidth: That’s geek-speak for “lots of room for stuff and big doors to let lots of people in.”
  • 10 e-mail addresses: E-mail is the way people communicate now.  It’s fast, simple, and personal.   With your own domain name, you can turn your e-mail address into another form of marketing.   You’ll no longer be “user1234235@somethingsomewhere.com”, you’ll be “Bob@GeekNiche.com”.  Every time someone e-mails you, they’re remembering you and the name of your store.   That’s free advertising.
  • SEO & Site Map plugins: SEO means “Search Engine Optimization”.  What that really means is “getting Google to love you” (as well as Yahoo, MSNLive, and all those other search engines).   The Small Biz Niche includes features which allow you to cuddle up to Google and whisper sweet nothings in its ear–and then give it directions to your house and a key to the door.  What you do after that is purely up to you.
  • Simple e-commerce: Sell your stuff online.   Why limit yourself to the people who walk through your doors?  You have the opportunity to sell to the world–literally!
  • Level 2 Tech support: Your time and money are best spent working on your business, not arguing with someone from India who’s going to ask “Have you tried unplugging your website and plugging it back in?”  First of all, when you talk to Geek Niche, you’re talking to the owners: Blaze and Paul.   We’re a small company ourselves, and we know how important it is to deal with our customers fairly.   We’ll answer your questions and fix the little issues at no charge.  Every one of our clients gets that, however.  That’s Level 1.   You’ll be getting level 2.  We can add new e-mail addresses, change passwords, help find applications to expand your business opportunities, offer insight and advice, and tackle some of the more difficult problems that we normally charge for.    And best of all, we won’t flood you with “geek speak” or talk to you like you’re stupid.
  • Automatic Upgrades: Technology moves fast.  You shouldn’t have to spend your time catching up. We’ll do it for you.  Hey… we’re geeks.  We like doing that kind of stuff.
  • Versatility: WordPress is an amazing tool with an almost unlimited number of looks and features.  Pick and choose the ones you want and we’ll help you implement them.   If you want to do it, there’s probably a solution out there waiting for you to use.  If not, we have the resources to hire the right people to make it happen.
  • $10/month. Yeah… I know we said that earlier, but it needs to be said again.

Contact us now and talk to us about what you need.  We’ll help you get online.   Or, if you’re already online, we’ll help you do so better and more affordably.
