And there you have it! It's literally done it in not even a minute. Let's take a closer look at what it's come up with together. Now, the beauty of multi starts is we've pre-written all the content for you, as a guideline of course. We've also pre-selected all the images as well. They all really have quality, as you can see, very stunning images. They're all completely free for you to use as well. However, I'm sure you've got images of all the various cuts you stock in your store. You want to showcase them on your website or your unique products, you can do that. You can make amendments to your website. Today, I'm going to be showing you exactly how to do that. You don't need to know any sort of website coding or be a web professional, and you seriously don't need to hire anyone to help you with the process either. You can do it all yourself, even if you're not that tech-savvy.

So, let's click on the first section at the top. Go ahead and pop in our email address over here. We want to make sure that email address is visible on our website, so let's check the box. Awesome! Let's pop in our phone number. And over here, there's just click to call. By the way, for your physical location, let's pop that in over here. When your website is live and your customers click on that physical location, it will automatically take them to Google Maps. And update social links, you can pop in the various social media platforms your business is active on. Icons will be displayed at the top, as well as at the bottom of your website. If you've got a logo, head on over to update logo in the next section over here. Browse your device to upload your logo. If you want to make slight amendments to that logo, crop it, rotate it, zoom in, maybe add filters or frames, you can click on the pencil over it. Otherwise, click on save over here on the right. You can make the logo bigger and smaller. Awesome!

Now, if you want to change the colors on your multisites website that were pre-selected for you, you can do so. No color coding needed! Click on the paint bucket, bottom right-hand corner, and click choose through the various color palettes that are available for you to use. Now, for each section that you'd like to make amendments to, click on update section directly underneath it. Head on over to update image. Over here is where you can browse your device and upload your own images. Otherwise, search through the photo library. Hundreds of images to choose from are completely free for you to use. Play around with the keywords a little bit and see what images pop up. And update actions, where you can change that button text to suit your needs. Currently, it says "contact us today." You can change it, and you can link your button to various places. Under update contents is where you can make amendments to their copy, the website content that was pre-written for you as a guideline. Under the "About" section, you can put a little bit more details of how your business came to be and how you got into this industry. And the last section over here is where you can pop in your business details, trading hours, so your customers know exactly when your business is open. They will be displayed in the section over here once you've put them in.
