So, once you've joined the platform, the first thing it's going to do is ask you to search for your market at the top. We have hundreds of different markets to choose from for different small businesses, solopreneurs, and people's side hustles. And we are adding more markets every single week. So, I'm gonna quickly head to the top, and I'm gonna search for my market: gymnastics center. There it is over there. I'm going to go ahead and select their template. Great! Let's talk about yourself— a few basic details about our gymnastics center— so it can generate a simple website for us. I'm going to go ahead and put my company name as well as Master T and my state's origin. It doesn't matter where in the world you're located; you can enjoy the Mighty Sites Service. We have happy users from all around the globe. Let's go ahead and change the type of business from restaurant to service. Click on continue and let Marty sites work its magic and create a website for us.

And look at that! Mighty Sites has literally generated a simple website in not even a minute. Let's take a closer look together. Now, the beauty of Monty sauces is we've pre-written all the content for you as a guideline, of course, and we've pre-selected all the images. They all really high quality, as you can see, and they're all completely free to use. However, I'm sure you've got some awesome images of your gymnastics team in action, and you want to make one or two changes to this content that was pre-written. You can do that! It's super simple. You don't need to know coding, you don't need to be a web developer, and you certainly don't need to hire a web professional either. So, I'm going to be walking you through each section, from the top to the bottom, making my way through, so you can have a little bit of a look and feel of how the service works and how simple it is to use— no coding whatsoever. So, let's get cracking!

I'm quickly going to scroll to the top, and I'm gonna select the first section over here. I'm going to go ahead and put in my company email address, and I want to make sure— let's move this over here— Press Box is set to display the email address on my Mighty Sites websites on the top Horizon Corner. Let's go ahead and pop in our phone number. And the great thing about that phone number is it's click to call. I'm now going to go ahead and put in my street's address— so, my physical location of my gymnastics center— as well as my postal code. Save the location. Awesome! So, the great thing about that location— the physical address— is when your customers click on it, it will automatically take them to Google maps to get directions to your physical location. Awesome! Let's head over to our Social Links to update them. Over here, we can update our social media platforms. All of the ones we're active on, our icons, will be displayed in the top Horizon coordinates to the email address, as well as the bottom over here. So, your customers and potential students can give you a follow, see what your center is up to, and get some engagement going. Let's move along.

Now, if you don't have a logo yet because you're on the startup process of your gymnastics center, or you've recently launched it, that's completely okay. Mighty Sites will literally just display your business name, and it still looks really great. However, I do have a logo, so I'm going to quickly go ahead and upload it. If you don't have a logo yet, I do recommend you check out canva.com. You'll find a few free great options on the website. So, our logo has been uploaded. However, if you want to make a few amendments to it, click on this little pencil over here, and we can crop it, resize it, flip it horizontally, zoom in, and add some filters. So, I'm selecting cropping it so it fits well in that section. I'm now uploading it again because I've made some changes, and then I'm going to go ahead and click on Save when it is uploaded. There we go. Look at that! That looks fantastic. We can make it bigger and smaller, but I think that size is perfect, so I'm actually going to go ahead and leave it exactly the way it is.

Now, with Mighty Sites as well, we've pre-selected all the colors used throughout your website for you. Basically, we wanted to make it as easy as possible when it comes to launching a simple website for your gymnastics center. Perhaps this color that was pre-selected doesn't quite go with your branding, the signage, maybe you've got vehicle signage, your logo— maybe it has a completely different color to this. We can change it. We don't need to know color coding. All we need to do is click on this handy little paint bucket on the bottom right-hand corner and go through the various different color palettes available for us. So, I think I'll want something— that purple is really great; that goes actually really well with my branding. But so is the blue. But I think I might go back to the purple. Let me look at one more page. I actually might— let me have a look at this one. I think I'm gonna go ahead with this one. I'm quite spoiled for choice, as you can see, so I do want to select all of them, but I can change it at a later stage— nothing's stopping me.

Let's move along. Over here, I'm going to head over to upgrade section and head over to update image. Now, over here, you can browse your device and choose one of your awesome images of your gymnastics team in action. Otherwise, you can search through the photo library— hundreds of images to choose from. Mighty Sites automatically searched for gymnastic center, and you can also change the terms to see what works well for you. So, I'm going to go ahead and select this one for now. I can change it at a later stage, as I said. And all these images in the library— whoops! Let's make sure that's saved. I think I accidentally clicked the button over there. There we go! It's uploaded, and all those images in the library are completely free to use.

Now, over here, we can change the title and subtitle to suit our business needs. Bryson doesn't have to say "contact us today." Perhaps he just wants to say "get directions." Let's go ahead and choose link. We can link to the lead form at the bottom, another part of our Mighty Sites website, which I'm going to get to in just a second. Otherwise, I could link to another website. So if you perhaps take online bookings or something like that— an action like clicks to call, Direction— so I'm going to go ahead and put it as directions. But you can as well upload a PDF file, which is a great option to put all your rates or different rates and packages you offer for your students. You could put it in PDF format; when they click on that button, it will automatically take them to their PDF file. Over here, again, pre-written content— Bryson can link to various places. Go ahead and upgrade section and work your magic.

We've now made our way to the better section. Over here, you can put a little bit more details of how your center came to be, how you got into this industry. Are you a passionate gymnast yourself, a gymnastics star perhaps? Have you done— been in the doing gymnastics for a couple of years? How did you get into this industry? Go ahead and pop all the details over here; your students would love to hear your stories.

We've now made our end to the services section. Over here, you can put a little bit more details of the different services you offer. Or perhaps why you are a better option than your other competitors? Why should people choose you as their gymnastic school? Do you perhaps have over 30 years of experience in the industry? Are your coaches background checked and safety certified? Is your training for all ages and/or skill levels? Do you have— are you home to many gymnastics champions? Go ahead and pop all those details over here.

We've now made our own to the last section— that lead form that I previously mentioned. Over here, your customers can easily reach out to you, put in their details, their message, click on send, and you will get notified via email that you have a lead via this form. You'll also find all your leads over in your mighty dashboard, which I'm gonna take you to in just a second. Let's just take one last look at our website we've just created, amended for our Gymnastics Center. Patrick Brady was such a breeze! I'm not very tech-savvy, and it really was so simple.
