There are very few homes these days which do not have access to the internet in some form or another, and more and more individuals are opting to run their own online businesses from home as the entrepreneurial small business trend gains momentum. The face of business in general is changing to a more mobile and on-the-go business model rather than the static trading platforms which worked so well prior to the advent of the World Wide Web. Whilst mobile business operation is convenient, fast and easy to navigate, it takes specialists to set up online “shopfronts” and ensure that as many systems as possible are automated to allow for a 24/7 buying and selling presence. This is where we need the services of computer and IT specialists.
Even if you are only using your computer at home for personal emails, online chats with family and friends through online platforms such as Facebook, Skype, Facetime and Twitter or surfing the web, your computer still needs to be properly linked to a web service provider. This is sometimes more difficult than anticipated, and if more than one computer is linked to the internet, it may be necessary to set up a home network which allows for linked computers to share files, printers or other peripheral devices, as well as the internet connection. This is usually done through a fixed location network within the home, but may also include mobile broadband internet access through cellular networks which allow for connectivity whilst travelling. Many networks, both private and commercial, are connected wirelessly, allowing mobile devices to be used at nearly all points within the range of the network. To ensure that only authorized users are able to use these wireless networks, access is usually restricted to those who have passwords which allow access to the networks. All of this can easily be set up by a computer and IT services specialist. Instead of battling for hours or days yourself to set this system up, it is easier and safer to call in a specialist who knows exactly what he is doing and can also provide advice and the most efficient ways of setting up any network.
With the demand for online shopping and more access to suppliers growing all the time, it is becoming clear that an online presence is a valuable asset to commercial enterprises.
Computer and IT specialists may offer website design, hosting, marketing tools and SEO optimisation to provide your business with the maximum online visibility. The design and complexity of a website will depend on the needs it has to fulfil, for instance being able to offer secure online payment options, highly interactive webpages, options to log in and add purchases to a shopping basket which will retain and update the information over repeated log-ins, the facility to view items of interest in more detail, and online customer-care web-chats. For those wanting something more static and simple, a well-designed landing page will draw the interest of the viewer and persuade him to investigate the company further. Whilst we might all have our own view of what will work for us and our business, our ideas may not be feasible, workable or even easy to use, and this is where we need the knowledge, experience and advice of a professional in this field. Even if we take website design out of the equation, online businesses still need to be able to communicate effectively with their own counterparts and partners if they are part of a national or multinational organisation.
It is would fairly difficult to find someone these days who has not had some form of contact with a computer specialist, from simple setting up of a new computer and linking it with a printer or Wi-Fi connection, to more complex issues of setting up home or office networks and websites. As with all trades, there are different approaches and methodologies employed by computer and IT specialists, even if the end result is the same. You need to choose someone who you feel you can rely on and trust with your computer and all its information, especially if it has to leave your premises for repairs or upgrades. Ask around, and use someone who has been recommended to you by a friend or colleague where possible. Online searches will also provide the names of these specialists, and are of particular value if they can provide online ratings and customer reviews, as with the Uptasker listing and search site. What is also very useful is Uptasker’s listing of suppliers in geographical locations, so you can find an expert where it is convenient for you. Computer and IT specialists may also be found through computer and IT magazines and publications, flyers - especially when offering special deals - newspaper ads and the Yellow Pages.
We are all experts in our own particular fields, and just as we rely on our customers to use our knowledge and experience for their needs, we too must learn to acknowledge that we sometimes need to use the services of experts in areas where we simply do not have the skills to cope on our own. Where computers and IT matters are concerned, it is far easier to call in the specialists from the beginning and save ourselves hours or days of needless and often fruitless frustration.
