Hi everyone, and welcome to today's video. So I'm going to show you how to instantly create a one-page website for a business using Mighty Sites. So to get started, you go and start your free trial.
Start your Mighty Sites Free Trial
At Mighty Sites, it's only $9 a month, and there's a seven-day free trial. So you can give it a shot and see if it works for you. It probably will if you're looking to build a one page website for a business because this platform is easy to make that happen. So I'll show you all types of templates and themes for local business types. So all you do is go in here and search for your business type. So let's say you have a local painting business. You can find the local painter template. But again, there are generic retail stores, generic services, businesses, and restaurants, and then there are all types of specifics, from personal trainers to yoga instructors, landscapers, and pet groomers.
Select A Small Business Website Template For Your Business Type
You find your business type and have a theme ready to go. So again, I'll do painter. That's a typical local type of local business, and a one-page website might be an excellent idea for that type of business. So I'll just put in Keegan's painting business. Let's say we're in Denver, Colorado, and then the business type is restaurant retail. This type of organization is a service business painting for somebody is a service you offer.
Instantly Deploy A One Page Website Template
And then, just like that, the system will instantly deploy a simple professional website for my painting business. So it's easy to use, and you can see that if I want to customize this, I could launch this website right now. Or if I want to customize it. So let me show you this.
Edit Your One Page Business Website
If I want to add, for instance, my phone number, I just type in my phone number up here, and now that my phone number has populated on the site, I can click save. Let's say I keep a Facebook page up to date. Let's add my Facebook page here and save it. Suddenly, the Facebook link is there and links to my Facebook page. So I can keep that and close it. I can update my location information if I want to edit this section. I can add more menu items. And those menu items can be in PDFs. So my rate sheet, they can be to call me, they can be to other places on my website, they can be to other websites.
Upload or Edit Your Business Logo
I can upload my logo, so if I have a logo, I can upload it here. If not, I can leave it as my business name. I'll show you what that looks like to upload a logo. Let me find a logo on my computer. Let's see what we have here. We can use the Mighty Sites logo for simplicity. Let's see here. So I'll upload this logo, and now, as soon as it uploads, I'll click save the logo, and there it is. Now I can make it bigger if I want. I can make it smaller. See how easy the tools are to use. I can click on this pencil, which goes for every type of image, not just logos, but if I click on that pencil, I can crop the image. I can filter it and change the colors of my image with all the different filters here. I can fine-tune it with the exposure or the contrast temperature.
Edit Images, Links and Text
I can play around with this to change those things. I can add annotations. I can decorate it, add a frame to it if I want, redact it or resize it. And all those tools are right here for me to use very simply and easily inbuilt into the Mighty Site system. So once that looks good, I'll just let it load there, save my logo close, and now I have a business logo in the top left too. I can update this section and make it into the hero text with a call to action button, or I can leave it as simple links. Whichever's easier for me. I can upload a new background picture if I want to use something different there. But all the default images are all set for you to use too. So any photos that come with the site when you deploy it are all pre-licensed for you to use on the website. You don't have to worry about changing those images. It's super easy to click on the update section and say this is a one page website for a small business, so I can type in exactly what I want. It'll show up right there for me.
Sometimes it's nice to type in customer testimonials or more details about your background and about us section or examples of your work or where they can find out more about the services you typically offer. You could even put rates you charge, whatever's appropriate for your business. So I'm just going to close that, and I'll jump down here—this section's great, cuz. Obviously, for a website, part of the primary purpose is to drive leads for your business. So if I'm, let's show you an example here.
Generate Leads Through The Contact Form
Put in my phone number, my email address, and now I'm going to say I would like to paint my house this summer. So now I can click send as a customer on your website, a potential customer. They'll get this nice thank you message. And then, for you, if this is your small business one page website, you go right back to your site dashboard and see the new leads your website's generating for you. So you see their name, email, phone number, and then their message, and you can contact them to close the deal and turn them into a paying customer.
Connect Your Domain and Launch Your One Page Business Website
Now you can connect a custom domain if you have one through GoDaddy, anything like that, you can update your social links, update your location, and then you can always go right back here to update your site quickly and efficiently. So that works again for any business. If I go back to my sites and I have a master account here with websites, if I go back, all sorts of different small business themes are included here, here. So all you have to do is go in and pick your website template and just like that, you can instantly produce a simple professional one page website for your business using Mighty Sites. Then from there, it's really easy to customize links, add social media, generate leads through your contact form, link to your menu if you're a restaurant linked to your prices or anything like that that you want to do. So that's how you use Mighty Sites to build a simple one page website for your business.
