In my long experience, website doesn't do much. Most of the business I've got in consulting field is through word of mouth and you spend sometime on call with the customer to understand what exactly they want and what you can offer to them at what price point and if you've previous successful projects to show off to them. Getting project from a customer who approaches you is really easy provided you've experienced and I start by understanding their requirements then offering them deep domain expertise overview of how we are going to slice and dice the problem at hand. Now ofc, if you don't have much experience with the domain - the person in front of you'll easily detect your BS. Websites doesn't really help much other than opening a line of communication and probably displaying some previous customers, success and maybe your company address / size.
