Quick Start Guide: 10 Steps to Create an Optimized Website

for Your Freelance Business

How do you find information these days? How do you find information about services? You Google them.

80% of people online use search engines such as Google to find a product or service and 58% of those tend to trust a company with a website or other web presence more than people that do not have a website.

This is your chance to be found by potential customers.

A website is your own space on the internet, where you decide the content and you own the space. When someone performs a search for your services, a website can “prove your existence” as a freelancer. As soon as the customer visits your website, he or she will be convinced of the consistency and legitimacy of your services.
