SME's can no longer afford to ignore the Internet

... as the latest figures show a 12% rise in online sales year-on-year.

Online retail traffic has increased by 10% in the past year and online sales are projected to rise by 12% by the end of 2009 according to recent figures from industry body Neilsen Online.

The Internet is now the first port of call when searching for a product or service, so having a professionally designed website that ranks highly on the search engines is vital in getting noticed and giving your business the edge over competitors.

“Now has never been a better time to get online. We make it quick and easy and most importantly affordable for small businesses to use the Internet to their advantage,” comments Dean Watmough, Managing Director of ORCA Websites.

“We don’t just give our clients a website, we provide them with all the support, training and advice they need to fully exploit the commercial potential of the Internet.”

Why not check out some of our recent clients including BPM Mens ClothingJ.L.E.C Electrical Ltd. or Kitchens Bespoke, to see how small businesses across the country are using the Internet to win their unfair share of business online.

Don’t just take our word for it; Bradford-based clothing retailer AN-X Menswear have taken over£4000 in online orders – and that’s just for July! 2009 sales to date total more than £30,000!
