Keeping it up to date and with content you want to be found for will help you rank in Google for potential customers.
A blog site such as blogger or wordpress may help you with content that showcases your credibility as a business and expertise. These sites rely on regular content in the niche areas of expertise to stay fresh in Google.
A website with a booking or contact form for speaking to potential clients is important and maybe a calendar to book specific slots if you want to make it easy for your potential clients to chat to you.

Every website is created a for a reason. To rank in Google it requires words, to look appealing it needs pictures and overall it requires a purpose and strategy to make it work for your business. Whatever your need, get in touch and can help you to be found in your areas of expertise.
Your website will need a platform and content - think carefully about what you want to be found for.
