Successful in the salon - with success on the web! The top 11

 


A well-designed website is like the icing on a piece of strawberry cake - you can do without it, but only with it is good. For hairdressers, having their website is an excellent opportunity to present their services, do marketing, and attract customers' attention. Here you can find out which top 11 contents and properties are important. Before starting, a proper barbershop business plan must be created for the effective growth of the salon.

Five reasons to have a professional hair salon website

Be one step ahead of others

Hairdressing salons face great competition - so stand out from the crowd and strengthen your market position! Even today, there are many salons without their website. Or even worse: You have boring, outdated, or overloaded websites that put off the visitor. It is therefore important not to rely on cheap self-made solutions but to invest in a professional side.

Acquire New Customers

Finding a new hairdresser is not difficult, but finding a good hairdresser is! Smartphones, tablets, and the like are an integral part of our lives. That's why you go straight to Google when you're looking for a new hairdresser. If you are not on the website and do not maintain your information about the salon on Google My Business, you are wasting valuable potential. Because website visitors can become new customers, and new customers can become regular customers.

Present yourself in the best possible way

When it comes to hairstyles, do you do everything possible to make your customers look as attractive as possible? Then do the same for your website! Would you give other people an ugly business card from your salon? No! Because the card should present you and your services in the best possible way. This is also how it looks with your website. It is a detailed business card and should be as personable, up-to-date, informative, and target-oriented as possible.

Build trust

When it comes to haircuts, highlights, and the like, you want to be sure that your wishes will be fulfilled. That's why people prefer to turn to professionals. You can present your services professionally and generate trust via your website.

Information is everything

Where can you find better information about opening times, services, specials, the team, and other things than on your website?

Which website properties are important?

Simple structure

Online there is a high risk that website visitors will click away after a few seconds and close your page. To prevent this, make sure your website is simple and easy to navigate. Often the visitors have a specific goal in mind, which must be easy and quick to find.

Appealing Design

When it comes to hairstyles, it is always about beauty. This also applies to your website. Outdated and cluttered websites put you off. Therefore, a simple, modern, clean design is important that invites you to explore and encourages you to visit your salon.

Rely on a mobile site

Around 68% of Germans use mobile internet (as of 2016). And the number keeps increasing. You probably know the situation yourself: you open a website with your smartphone that has not been optimized for mobile devices. Instead of dealing with the website on the small screen, leave the page and go to another one.

The six most important pieces of content for hair salon websites

Contact details,

Opening times, telephone number, address, route map - this is the most sought-after information. They have to be easy to find, preferably directly on your home page!

Capitalize service and illustrate on your side how you can be reached, for example by public transport. Information about your own parking spaces can spontaneously tempt you to visit.

Prices

What does a visit to the hairdresser cost me? Clear price information is highly valued. Create transparency and state what you charge for individual services. So there is no fear of hidden costs.

Team

Customers want to know whom they are dealing with. A friendly team builds trust.

Unique advantages

Do you offer a special service that no other hairdresser in the area has? Point this out to your website visitors. Preferably directly on the home page, so your score at first sight.
