Standout Design Improves Small Business on the Web

With billions of pages on the web, what sets yours apart? As a small business it can be hard to compete. The web seems more like an ocean; billions of fish, every size and shape, all trying to survive. Where do you fit in this ecosystem? What is your niche? What will you do to survive? How will you climb the ecommerce food chain? Fish use adaptations such as camouflage, protective coloring, and poisonous spines to protect against predators. Growing businesses use unique design and branding to get ahead of their competitors.

“A visitor will decide if they will read on within the first 10 seconds on their first visit to your website.” That’s why SmallBusiness.Logoworks.com is recognizing small businesses that look big with the “Bizignees Blog Awards.” We’re building a resource to include:

• More articles and information on starting and running a small business from notable bloggers who utilize great design
• A look at small businesses with inspirational web branding
• Your connection to the small business community

Business blogs and websites will continually be nominated and a new winner will be chosen every week. Check back for new submissions and winners. We’ll be uncovering some of the best (designed) business resources on the web.

Do you know of a site that’s designed to get noticed? Contact us to nominate a business blog with quality content and a great design. Or, submit a small business site with standout branding. The submissions will be reviewed and considered for recognition by The Official Bizignees Blog Award.
