Your website is your online storefront
Whether your health coaching business is in-person or online (but especially if it’s online!), a professional and impactful website is an essential foundation to growing your business.
Your online presence builds and defines your brand
Your website is an opportunity to build and define your brand in a way that attracts (and connects with!) prospective clients. From your logo to your colors, fonts, imagery and layout, your website branding should be designed to specifically appeal to your ideal client.
While plenty of health coaches create their own DIY branding, others choose to work with a marketing professional or graphic designer to develop their brand guidelines and assets.
Your website puts you in front of the right people
The health coach life typically involves a regular search for new clients. A website that highlights your work and promotes your offerings can greatly assist in turning your search on autopilot and bringing in your ideal clients—allowing you do more of what you love to do for people who need it.
For health coaches offering in-person services, optimizing your place-based SEO (search engine optimization) can also improve your search ranking to connect your business with more local clients.
SEO is more than just a buzzword—it’s an important part of your online visibility. Websites that are built to be optimized for search engine visibility can improve your ranking in search results, getting your business more visibility among your target audience.
Your website connects and streamlines your tools
Your website can serve as a hub for multiple tools or platforms you use within your business. For example, your website can house your blog, your online store, your client forms and surveys, and even password-protected membership pages—all under one parent URL, and all with a cohesive look and feel.
Seamless user experience = happier customers.
Your website helps grow your list
A key feature of a well-built website is that it’s a gateway for your email list—aka your list of potential customers.
When people stop by your website, take a look around and like what they see, you’re positioned to give them an offer to receive more related content they’ll also like (such as a promotional pop-up or other opt-in offer), which allows you to grow a list of people who truly want to receive what you’re offering. Then, you’ll be able to communicate with this list to share product offers, launches, newsletters, business updates and more.
