Following to that you will need to look for new updates to the different plug-ins you are using. Usually when Wordpress releases a new update, the company or developer that created the plug-in, they don’t have a one available, therefore either you will need to find a different plug-in or start from scratch.

Lately technology has drastically evolved and is changing constantly, as an example landlines (talk only) phones were replaced by cellphones (talk and text) were replaced by smartphones (we can talk, chat, use apps, browse the internet and more just with one device) a great tool for improving productivity.

These past years, the internet has changed the way we are doing and managing our businesses, most of our leads and customers are being generated from websites, as small business owners we are facing bigger challenges that typical websites or brochure websites cannot solve the way they used to before.

Website / Brochure Websites:

A Website provides an online foot-print. It typically consists of standard static web pages (Home, About Us, Contact Us, Products and Services and some pictures). Today, many businesses have one these types of web sites.

Graphic designers creates Websites / Brochure website. There are also free build yourself Website Services.

Brochure Websites for businesses don't work, anymore!

A Brochure website will NOT help you improve exposure

Search engines and customers lately are not impressed with Websites / Brochure websites because there is little or no new relevant content. Search engines will not return or re-visit your Brochure Website; therefore it will be very difficult to improve page rankings and exposure.

Lack of Features & Functionalities

As a business owner you will only be able to browse the pages that your visitors are browsing (Home, Contact Us, About Us, etc.)

Brochure Websites are nothing more than copies of printed business brochures. Brochure websites are static, boring and obsolete!

Typical websites / Brochure Websites lack features and do not foster lead and customer engagements.

Return on Investment (ROI) is close to zero. Visitors find Brochure Websites boring.

If you were to be using platforms such as Wordpress or other platforms, in order to add even basic functionalities such as blog, chat, etc. you would have to hire and pay extra, or spend hours after hours learning how to download and install "Plug-Ins" or any other software application in order to add new functionalities to your website, and then you need to constantly update those features and application otherwise your website will become obsolete!.
