The biggest reason of course is the fact that your webpage is quite literally your face to the world. Yes, e-commerce is important, but whether you sell your product online or not there are still a number of people who will not bother to give a business a chance if it does not have a decent website.
On the subject of website decency, proper coding and modern plugins need to be used if the website is to be taken seriously. Anyone can create a webpage these days as opposed to the old days in which only those who were HTML savvy could even think of creating a ‘Hello World' page. While anyone can create a page however, there are certain conditions that need to be met before one might consider a webpage ‘professional'.
The level of coding required in today's world would be CSS simply because of its ability to process tables. In the old days of HTML frames were acceptable, and they worked well with the software of the day. As browsers and computer components progress however, it becomes obvious that new standards will be needed.
Along with the webpage format you will need to understand plugins. These plugins could be Media Player related, or they could simply be Flash/ActiveX. Not only do these add a great aesthetic to the webpage, they also relay a sense of experience and understanding to the webpage viewer. In other words as they see this page, users will realize that the creator of the website, or the host, knows what he or she is doing and can provide a quality service.
Of course being able to follow through with that quality service is paramount, and this can normally be augmented with some type of shopping cart system. It can be difficult for one to program their own shopping card, and even more importantly gain a license to accept credit cards. It would be wise to find a company that can handle shopping cart creation and it would be wise for you to create a user login system so that each customer can keep track of their orders on a regular basis.
It won't be long before you've created a high quality website that can service a number of different customers. Make sure you consider many different designs and take the advice of the professionals before you commit to any particular setup. Remember that your website is your face to the world, and you want your face to look as good as possible!
