Q- I have a business, but am not overly computer savvy. How important is having a website for my business?

A - The internet is the way to connect to the world. Even if your business is locally based, having a website means allowing the world to know who you are. Or at least it allows your clients and potential clients to keep up with what you can offer them. That is only if you put your site out there.
