With social media sites and networks like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and increasingly Google + taking up so much of our lives, and offering a quick and easy publishing platform for small businesses – is it time to ask the question – do I actually need a website? The cost of getting traffic to your website is increasing too – Adwords is costing more per click, SEO is getting more competitive. The advantage of being on Facebook is your web presence is where your customers are already hanging out on line. Of course these things are rarely black and white so this infographic is a nice visual way to help decide whether you actually need your own dedicated site or whether other ways of getting online are a better option.
