Introducing "Ask Beth": A New Monthly Column for the Questions We Hear Again and Again

If you have questions about your website or your online presence, you are not alone:

Do I really need a website if I already have Facebook and Instagram? Why isn't my business showing up when people search for us? How do I keep up with posting everywhere without it eating my whole week? And what the heck is happening with AI!

Different businesses, but same worries: am I doing enough, and where do I even start?

We hear it again and again – which means we're SO pleased to launch "Ask Beth", an ongoing monthly column where we answer one of these questions at a time, in plain language, with no jargon and no sales pitch. It's a small thing, but it's one more way for us to be useful to the small businesses and non-profits across rural coastal BC that we created this social enterprise to serve.

The first post is up now: “Do I really need a website too?”.

If that's a question you've wondered about yourself, there's also a full companion feature – Is Your Website Doing Its Job? A 10-Minute Audit for Busy Owners – with more detail if you want to go deeper.

Here's how to stay in the loop
