It's such done, so in a couple seconds. Let's take a closer look at what it's come up with together.

Now, the beauty of Mighty Sites is, we've actually pre-written the content for you, as a guideline, of course. We've also pre-selected all the images as well, they're all really high quality. They're completely free for you to use as well. Look at that, they don't look like they've been taken on a mobile phone, very professional. However, I'm sure you've got some of your own images of all the amazing stock on vehicles you have in your dealership, want to showcase it on your website, maybe make one or two amendments to this content. Perhaps you don't offer all these services, want to make the um sections a little bit more personalized to your business. I'm going to be showing you exactly how to do that today. It's super simple, you don't need to know any website coding, or be a web professional in any kind of way. Certainly don't need to hire anyone to help you with this, either. You can literally do it all yourself. Let's get started.

I'm going to click on the first section at the top, pop in my email address over here. I want to make sure that that is visible on my uh website, so I'm going to go ahead and check the box, so my customers can see my email address and reach out. Phone number, let's pop it in, that is click to call, by the way, and address, physical location. The great thing about it is, when your website starts, love your customers can actually click on that address and be taken directly to Google Maps. On the top left-hand corner, whoops, under Update Social Links is where you can put in the various social media platforms your business is active on. We've got all the various social media platforms here. If there's any you want us to add as well, go ahead and put uh a comment below and let us know.

In the next section, if you have a logo, go ahead and upload it over here. If you don't have a logo, check out Canva.com, Logo.com, or Hatch.com. We do have some videos on those logos, making a free logo, if you don't have a huge budget on those websites, so check it out. Once you've saved your logo, you can click on that pencil to crop it, rotate it, zoom in, add filters or frames, and here on the R, so you can make it bigger and smaller to suit your needs. Now with Mighty Sites as well, we pre-selected the colors for you. If you want to change them, go ahead and click on that paint bucket, bottom right-hand corner, go through the various color palettes available for you to use. For each section, you want to make amendments to, click on Update Section directly underneath it, head on over to Update Images. This is where you can browse your device and upload your own images, search through the photo library. There's hundreds of high-quality images to choose from, and you now have the option to connect your Instagram account with a click of a button. If you have a profile, automatically pull in all those images. And Update Action is where we can change those call-to-action buttons, the text, as well as where the buttons link to, even uploading a PDF file, if you wish.

To, in the last section, you can put your car dealership trading hours. Go ahead and click on Update Section, head on over to Update Hours. Once you've updated it, the page will automatically reload after saving, to display your trading hours over here, your opening hours for your business. If you have a custom domain, go ahead and click on Connect Your Domain at the bottom, the yellow button, um, if you don't have a domain yet and you really want your website to look more professional, trustworthy, stand out from all your competitors in your neighborhood, go ahead and click that button as well.
