Before going any further, let us agree on one thing. The main goals of your school's website are to leave a lasting impression, educate, and inform prospective students and parents. To achieve this, you need a functional and high-quality website. 

Sure, you can sign up for an online web design course or use one of the many do-it-yourself web page building solutions you can find online. You can even ask one of your students to create a decent website for you. It may only cost you some pizza money.

However, you need to understand that you are investing in a website that will showcase your school to prospective students and, more importantly, their parents. You can best do that with a website that provides a great user experience, reliability, and design.

Here are some factors to consider when choosing between do-it-yourself websites and professionally made ones:

As a small business owner, you know the importance of building your brand recognition and attracting new clients. Just because your business may be smaller, but that doesn't mean that your client list has to be.

You may be asking yourself, what is lead generation, and how will it help my small business?

Lead generation is a simple concept that refers to the methods and procedures used by small businesses to generate interest in their products or services among prospects and then convert them into clients. 

In other words, and as it relates to the online world, it is about getting people interested in your business enough to reach out, allowing you to sell the product or service, thus becoming a valued client.

You may also want to think about it as a process of identifying potential consumers based on their activities. This may include their intent level or how interested they are. Are they just “kicking the tires,” or do they have cash in hand and are ready to buy. If they are “just looking,” it becomes the process of guiding them through the funnel until they become clients.

You and I know that solid relationships with your clients are the heart of a successful small business. With the introduction of new digital and social technologies, the number of ways to generate new leads is constantly evolving as well.
