Its very ingrained on me that a proper business should be able to spare a few on a domain for themselves, as I remember it before the dot-com bubble.
Now? Websites have been displaced by social media altogether and many small business simply prefer having an Instagram profile, for example.
You should never depend 100% on another platform for your only business presence. You can get banned on Instagram, Facebook etc. very easily. Treat them like a billboard not like your home.
