Building A Website In Sri Lanka
- Published on
Overview
Building a website in Sri Lanka can be challenging sometimes. When it comes to a small business or a rapidly growing business, in Sri-Lanka more than 85% of them don’t have their own Website. Having a website for yourself or your business doesn’t just help grow your audience as a sole person or as a business, but it also provides some form of credibility and makes you or your business look more professional.
Whether you are a sole-trader hoping to gain better exposure, a small business expanding it’s customer base or a large business looking to provide your customers with an appealing platform for information, a website can help you connect your business to it’s customers from a simple Google search. Don’t have a website? Lets see how we can solve this.
Why do you need a website?
How a simple online search can help you reach more potential customers
When it comes to any sort of purchase, the first way a potential customer will find a business is
from a simple Google Search. In today’s world most people find their necessary items through online searches via Search Engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing. This is where
more than 90% of the online Searches happen.
Researchers say, on average around 75% of people start with a search engine search for their online shopping needs, which means if you don’t have your own business website; you’re only selling 25% of your business’s services which speaks for itself. When you get a website for your business, whether it is in Sri-Lanka or overseas, it allows your business to expand itself to a broader audience online and helps you drive more potential customers into actual sales.
A website shows you’re a serious business and your professionalism
When a new business starts up, it’s hard for them to secure a spot the online market-place. Having a website doesn’t just give you exposure but also gives you a chance to show your audience how serious and dedicated you are towards your business.
A well-built and a well-maintained website will make a positive impression to those who visit it.
As a business showing your professionalism to potential customers will set you apart from
other businesses which are in competition and open oppertunities to grow your customer base and increase sales.
A website allows you to find customers all around the world
As a business, it is an important aspect to expand the products and services offered, not just to your local market but to the global market as well.
Expanding your reach globally can offer a wide range of benefits however some of the more obvious ones are increased sales and higher authority over your competitors.
A well built website can be one of the best investments a business an make as research suggests that the return on investment is greater when you have an online portfolio that your audience can connect with from their smartphone, tablet or pc.
These are just 3 important aspects of having a website for your business.
What do you need to get started?
In simple terms, having a basic knowledge on what you need to have when getting a
website built is important. In the following section, we have explained the three main elements you need to get your website started.
Domain
Domain is the name of your website. In short you have to reserve a domain name in
the internet to secure that name for yourself. Think of it as if your website was a house;
domain name is the address of your house. You can check if your business name is
available to be reserve through our website simply by clicking here.
If your domain name is available to reserve you can register the domain name from well
recognized domain name registrars. For “.com”, “.net”, “.org” or any other domain-extensions we recommend Namecheap and for “.lk” you can check registrars such as register.lk, domains.lk, and
lankahost.lk, and from these recognized sites you can simply secure your domain without
a hassle (eg: my-business-name.com).
Hosting
Hosting is an internet-based service which helps individuals, businesses and
organizations to host their website on their servers. A web-hosting service provider mostly
provides hardware, software, storage, and network services to their customers and some
hosting providers have their own combined hosting packages which are easy to use.
Nowadays to make the hosting simpler, domain providers tend to provide hosting as well in order for
their customers to bring their site online without any complications. Once again, we recommend Namecheap for small to medium business owners and for flexible hosting our favorite choice is Digital Ocean.
Secure Socket Layer Certificate (SSL Certificate)
Simply put, SSL is a layer which works between the client who is using the website and
the server which is providing the hosting to encrypt the sensitive data which is being
communicated within. An SSL Certificate is what causes your website to start with “https” instead of “http”. Having a HTTPS standard website will not only make the website secure, it will increase your customer’s trust. Search Engine’s also prioritize websites which are SSL Certified.
The most commonly used and well reputed SSL providers are Comodo SSL,
Digicert SSL and EntrustedDatacard SSL. Because of the cost, efficiency and affordability most people tend to choose Comodo SSL over the others but each have their own advantages and disadvantages.
