Having decent contacts can be vital for a number of companies. Those using web hosting packages could gain more contacts by developing their websites, it has now been claimed.
Ganesh Selvarajah, an advisor at Business Link, told the BBC that firms looking to expand their list of contacts should figure out what makes them different from competitors and ensure that this is the "unique selling point" on their homepage.
"You need to include a few case study examples of work that you have done before, with quotes from clients recommending you to others," he suggested.
Mr Selvarajah also recommended that businesses ensure their details are correct on websites as well as popular directory listings and the relevant trade association, adding that the Business Link website can provide useful advice.
