Benefits of Having a Website & Return On Investment | Whether it is your time, intellectual property, or money, you have to invest to produce your website. Here we discuss a variety of ways your website can make your investment worth while. LegitimacyWhen you give someone a business card with your "@yahoo.com" , "@sbcglobal.com" or "@hotmail.com" generic email address and no mention of a website on the card, your credibility is decreased. For all anyone can tell, you came up with the idea for your business that very morning, got yourself a "@gmail.com" email address and printed out some business cards on your laser jet. When you have an email address "@YOURBUSINESSNAME.com" and a web address (with a website you are proud of), you are demonstrating that you are serious about your business and have invested in a website to give it legitimacy.
