Why Every Business Needs a Website in 2025
Your Website Is Your Digital Storefront
Think you can run a business through Instagram alone? Think again. While social platforms are great for visibility, your website is what builds trust, drives conversions, and gives customers a place to actually take action.
Stillwater and Minneapolis business owners often rely too heavily on social media. But when you don’t own your platform, you don’t control the experience - or the data. Your website is the one corner of the internet you own.
Why Social Media Alone Isn’t Enough
Social platforms like Instagram and Facebook are rented space. Algorithm changes, outages, or shadowbanning can wreck your visibility overnight.
A website gives you:
Full control of your brand experience
A central hub for SEO, blogs, and traffic
Data ownership and tracking via tools like Google Analytics
The Trust Factor: Professionalism Sells
Let’s be real - people Google you. If they find a well-designed website with testimonials, services, and contact info, they’re more likely to trust you. A business without a website feels incomplete or even sketchy in 2025.
A great site communicates:
Legitimacy
Expertise
Consistency
Not Just a Website - A Marketing Engine
Your website should do more than just look good.
It should:
Collect emails
Capture leads
Convert visitors
Educate your audience
That’s why hiring someone who understands user experience and digital strategy makes all the difference. At Ruby Slippers Marketing, we build websites that work as hard as you do.
You Deserve More Than a Template
Generic builders and cookie-cutter templates won’t take your brand to the next level. Whether you’re a law firm, salon, boutique, or nonprofit - your website should reflect your uniqueness.
Ruby Slippers Marketing offers custom-built websites using Squarespace, WordPress, and even GoDaddy (when appropriate), tailored to your goals, audience, and growth plans.
