The Minimum Pages For Your Website

It is agreed that the core function of a website is to communicate with the visitors to the website. For this reason your website must be able to provide information about yourself or your business, have information available if visitors wants to contact you and also be able to showcase your services or products.

Therefore the 4 pages that must always be on any website are:

• Home Page
• About Us
• Service or Products
• Contact Us

The Home Page or Landing page is your website's most important page, as this is window to the rest of your website and usually the first page your customers will see if they go to your website. For this reason you should put the most effort into this page's layout and content. The page should also include abbreviated pieces of information that is linked to your other web pages.

Another very important page is the Contact page. There should be contact details or at least a link to your contact page on every other page of your website. This will ensure that customers can easily contact you. Your contact page must provide the customer with various methods of contacting you, including an email address, telephone number, fax number and also a contact form.

The About Us/Me page should be providing more information about yourself or your business, giving a bit of history and also your direction for the future. You can also include photos of yourself and your family or business on this page.

If your website is for more than just informational purposes, then you must also include a page or pages showcasing your services or products. You can either put them all on a single page or have separate pages for different services or products.

Even though there are numerous other web pages that one can create for a website, these four are the minimum required to have and must always be included in your website. This will ensure that you have an appropriate internet presence for your website.

Look out for a future article where I will give more detail on other web pages that can be included in a business website to provide a greater experience for your customers, as well as to boost the professionalism of your website and internet presence.
