Our Mission is to provide an affordable starter-page for Maltese startups / family businesses / self-employed people.
Starting a company is a hassle in itself: the financial risks, the paperwork, tracking the stock, managing the employees and the clients, etc, etc... The list is endless and only those who really took the challenge and built a company will understand it.
But operating a business is just half of the story: in order to sell your products/services, your clients have to find you first!
In the digital era, if you don't own a website you are basically non-existent to younger generations. To be honest, if I want something, I don't even step out on the street without checking on Google where I can find that specific product/service.
I understand that making a website is a hassle in itself. Let me break it down a bit:
- Having a Facebook page is just unprofessional (and these days even my cat has its own Facebook page)
- Yellowpages are meant to be professional. But put your hand on your heart: when was the last time you picked up the Yellowpages?
- Ordering a custom-made website is unreasonably expensive: it will look nice and have a ton of features, but probably all you need is contact info with a good description and some catchy pictures. Hosting and maintaining a website just for that reason is an overkill.
- Of course, you can always choose the DIY way, but let's be objective: at the end, it will just look and feel amateur. And if you put a LOT of time and effort and finally make something which looks beautiful, probably no one will find it because the Search Engines will have a different opinion.
- You can always delay having a website... And unfortunately, that is what most of the Maltese micro-businesses do: 70% of them is just not visible on the internet
We are here to fill that gap. If you are just starting your business and all you need is to be able to be found on the internet, what you need is: a nice description of your business, a few professional pictures, open hours, the price of your services and - most importantly - your contact info! -- All this packaged nicely in a professional webpage.
