Further, many small businesses that do have a website do not consider a mobile-friendly website to be a priority.
WASHINGTON DC, February 17, 2016 – Nearly half of small businesses in the US operate without a website, according to a new survey of 350+ small businesses from Clutch, a B2B research firm. Irrelevancy to their business and expense were the top reasons cited by most respondents for why they choose not to have a website.
Despite these findings, website experts stress that small businesses that do not have a website should seriously consider developing one - even the simplest, low cost, 1-2 page site - in order to have a greater online presence.
