I think small businesses like all businesses have similar challenges of efficiency, lack of financial resources, lack of people resources and lack of time. If technology could help them, they would love to use it, every one should use technology to help them, not just online businesses.

Technology usage to grow your small businesses is not just about being efficient, it’s about saving you time so that you can spend it with your clients, employees, friends and family.

But here are the top 5 technology tools all small businesses should utilize to grow, why not use the advantages that online businesses use?

1. Mobile email device, such as a blackberry is a must.
You shouldn’t have to go back to your computer and go check email, you should be busy spending time with your customers, employees, and suppliers. Instead Save time, by using a blackberry or something similar, check email and send email from any where any time.

You should be out and about doing your business, and check it when you have a moment. There is no better tool for small businesses or actually any online business or not, than a mobile email such as blackberry.

2. Having a business blog is a must!
And you should be using a free business blogging system such as Blogger.com and Wordpress.com as those blogs get indexed by Google every day.

This whole website and company is based on blogging, and we wanted to develop a business blogging platform that had built in SEO for you. Blogs are the #1 way to promote your businesses on line, because search engines such as Google consider them news, you need to blog about your specific products and services and generally what is going on about your businesses regularly.

3. You need a website ( or blog site ) with a custom Domain.
Your own website has your professional representation with a custom design for you. First thing we recommend is that if you have the money, you hire a custom html web designer and have it done. Next best thing is for you to find a industry based solution, one with templates already built in for you.

For example in the real estate or mortgage industry there are specific solutions, and there is so much specific content and application tools, that one really has to consider those solutions first. Next for a blogsite, in addition to your website or within your URL. For example: blog.MyWebsite.com, Great place to start is Wordpress.com or Wordpress.org. Ask your tech person for help.

4. Learn about SEO (which stands for Search Engine Optimization)
Online business marketing. SEO, blogs and Google Adwords based Search Engine Marketing are key to help you target key customers. Again there are many great resources on the web, including our SEO blog at OrangMelayu.Com.

5. Join an online businesses community such as online local business forum. Why should small businesses join any online business communities. We all need each other to succeed, businesses need customers, suppliers, employees, not just owners:-). There are number of challenges and situations that you may want to get advice on.

The chances are there are owners of businesses out there that have dealt with those issues, and often times they want to help you. You may have some advice that may help them, this is what online businesses communities do in an efficient time saving way.
