How many pages do I need?
This depends on how much content you have. Every
business website should have an 'About Us' page (or
something similarly titled) to tell your visitors
about your business. After that, it depends on what
type of business you have. A good rule of thumb is
to not overwhelm your audience with too much
information on each page. Disperse the information
and break it up into easily navigated pages and
paragraphs. Long pages of text tend to overwhelm the
reader. Break content up to get your
audience's attention.
