Our business is different to your other customer’s websites. Our customers don't shop or research for our products online.

I probably hear these statements at least once per month from potential clients. Some of them have website and some of them don’t.

I honestly think your website should be your best sales person.

Now if you have a website and have linked your Google Webmaster tools to your Google Analytics account then you can really tell if people are searching for the things you sell. Even if your website is not optimised there is a pretty good chance you will be able to see if people are actually searching for the products or services you sell. Now you need to have a number of pages on your website. If your website is less than 5 pages you need to create more content to have any chance in the Google race.
