How Can I Use Audio on My Web Site?
One way of looking at the issue is to compare your website with television. When was the last time you turned off the sound and simply watched the picture? Do you know anyone else who watches a silent screen? Probably not. We exist in a multimedia culture, and a multimedia experience is not complete without sound. It's that simple. A few years ago, an argument could be made that large audio files would slow down the internet experience and drive visitors away. But not today. Higher connection speeds, faster computers and superior development technologies make delivery of high quality sound not only possible, but key to your site's success.
As a professional audio guy, I can imagine dozens of appropriate audio applications for almost any web site, but the real question is, "What makes sense to you?" Perhaps your web activity reports show that visitors aren't staying on your site long enough to learn what you have to offer. In a case like this, a professional audio introduction can help capture and hold your visitors´ attention. Or maybe you have pages with lots of information your visitors need to read, and some relaxing background music (along with the option to control the volume) would make the experience more rewarding. You may have amazing animations on your website, just begging for some audio punch to make them truly exciting. Think about it. Wander around this website. Use your imagination and soon you´ll be wondering why it´s taken you so long to begin thinking about audio for your web site.
Why Not Just Buy a Microphone and Do It Myself?

Audio production is very enjoyable, and if you have a serious interest in it I would encourage you to give it a try.

If a professional image matters to you, then at least allow a person or company with verifiable experience to give you a quote.
