Website vs. Social Media: What’s the Real Difference?

Some business owners ask, “Why should I get a website if I already have Facebook or Instagram?”

Here’s the deal — social media is great, but it’s not a replacement for a website. Here’s why:

🏠 1. A Website Is Your Digital Home

You control it. You own it. It doesn’t change based on an algorithm.
👉 Social media is rented space. Your website is your online home.

💼 2. It Makes You Look Professional

First impressions matter. A clean, mobile-friendly website tells people you’re serious.
👉 Clients are more likely to trust and book with businesses that have their own site.

🔍 3. People Google Before They Scroll

Most people search for services on Google — not on Instagram.
👉 A website helps you show up when they’re looking for what you offer.

📖 4. It Tells Your Full Story

A website can include your prices, services, about page, reviews, gallery, contact form — everything in one place.
👉 It saves you and your clients time.

So yes, keep using social media — but pair it with a website, and your business levels up.
