The changing trends of the web industry.
After 2000 the web industry at that
time was filled with companies with pie-in-the-sky concepts, very little backing
a lot of money and industry once the.com bubble
burst there was a realization that quick and easy money on the Internet was not
as quick as easy as people thought! The old adage build it and they will come
was the downfall of many companies and a lot of investment companies lost a lot
of money because of that philosophy.
The Last 10 Years
What I find fascinating in 10 years
of business that M9 Corporation has been in operation in the changing
face of the industry shortly after the .com bubble busrt there was this surge from businesses to return to more traditional forms of
marketing such as brochures, billboards, business cards of course. With most opinions about websites being that, I'll build a brochure
website but I'm not going to invest a lot of money into it. The first three
years of business websites that were constructed were constructed with the
purpose of being a supporting structure towards a simple tool of their
business additional information or simply you did not look professional unless you had a website..
As people became more comfortable
with websites, there became a fundamental realization that a website can be
used to be a tool for business far beyond simple brochure. Such as managing
documents or managing systems or policies etc. The next three or four years of
business there was a general growth and people using the website as utility to
support systems within their business as well as developing systems that allow
them to maximize productivity. In the past three or four years there's been a
surge of companies offering do-it-yourself or DYI type website templates that
allow the end-user to produce their own website for very small if not minor cost per month basis. Though this has been a challenge for most web companies
including ours coping with the the common question, why should I pay you $2000 when I can
do this for 200? This level of competition only caters to a specific customer
demographic who are well motivated to do there on website and have the technical skills to see it through.
In the past couple years there's
also being an increased amount of people capable of offering and producing
websites many of which use some of these online resources to build simple
websites and charge larger amounts of money, in
order to maximize their profitability. How M9 Corporation is different, is
that we still construct our websites with our own internal proprietary software
as well as provide superior customer service and market evaluation upon meeting
and creating a website. We commit ourselves to actually getting our websites to perform the way was intended
but we also can construct utilities within that website that can maximize your
productivity within your business and your employees.
In conclusion the stroll down memory
lane related to the web industry and the different stages of its evolution,
brings me to the future and today we're we as a company has survived, flourished and overcome many challenges to the different forms of competition and threats to
our business. M9 Corporation is not only a company
that innovates and changes with the times we also have the foundation of good solid
business sense and model that allow us to continue to support create and build websites
at will do exactly what they intend to do for a reasonable price.
M9 Corporation is well placed
to continue to not only construct websites of sound principle but we are
striving ahead to provide services that give you the customer the ability to drive
traffic to your website through online search engines such as Google Search. With sound business practices and commonsense approach to websites and industry give you
the customer the greatest advantage over your competition.
