If you seriously thinking of setting up or growing your business, you need to think about your internet presence today to ensure you keep one step ahead of the competition.

Here are 4 steps to help you get Online:

-          Step1 - Protect your domain names: This is the address people will use to access your web site (yourcompany.com / yourproduct.co.uk..).  Register your online presence as soon as you can.  Many a business has found the right idea and developed a good business plan, but failed to secure their online brand in time.

-          Step2 - Design of your website: Creating a website is a good first step, but the most important thing is to keep it updated, which is why, ideally you should manage your own website if you don’t want to end with expensive bills with design agencies.

-          Step3 – Hosting and Email: Each website needs to be hosted on a server, permanently online, in order to be reached by the web community. You should use personalised email accounts like sales@mycompany.com  - this is much more professional than a Yahoo or Hotmail address.

-          Step4 – Marketing your Website: Your website address should be everywhere (leaflets, business cards, print ads etc..). The more people who visit your site, the more visibility it will achieve in the  search engines.
