Are you thinking about launching your own virtual assistant business? Or maybe you already are a virtual assistant? Either way, as a VA you need a website!
If you don’t already have a website for your virtual assistant business, now is the time to build one and here are 6 reasons why.
1. Credibility
Having a website for your virtual assistant business helps your ideal client place their trust in you and your services. It’s that professional touch that your business needs, because let’s be honest your customers expect you to have a website. Your website is there to represent you and your expertise.
An added benefit of having a website for your VA business is having a branded email address. For example, info@yourawesomesite.com. Having an email that goes with your domain name, is much more professional than using a @gmail.com or @hotmail.com. Your branded email address will up your level of credibility.
2. Showcase Your Services
Your website is there to showcase what it is you do best. It’s your chance to tell your dream customers who you are, what you do, how you can help them, and how they can contact you. Speak directly to your ideal client with your services page so they know how your services will benefit them and transform how they do business if they use your virtual assistant services.
3. Referrals
If you already have clients you are working for who love your work, they are likely to tell others who need similar services about your business. Word of mouth is a big way to get clients. This is where your website is handy. Your current client can easily refer anyone to your website. A website is easier to remember than a phone number, plus it allows the referral to get a glimpse of what you do before they reach out to you.
4. Searchability
Let your website work for you. If you take the time to find the keywords optimized for your business and learn basic SEO, your website could be bringing new clients for you on Google.
5. Social Proof
Display your client’s testimonials or reviews on your website. Social proof is big when it comes to converting a website viewer into a client because they want to know how you’ve helped others accomplish their goals.
6. Building a Website Is Easy and Affordable
Choose a website building platform so you can build a website with ease. I recommend using a self-hosted WordPress site. I like using WordPress because you get full control over your site plus it’s less expensive than using Squarespace.
