Once you join the platform, the first thing it's going to ask you to do is search for your market. We have hundreds of different markets for various small businesses, and we are adding more markets every single week. I'm going to go ahead and search for my market, "Tire Shop." There it is. Let's go ahead and select that template. Excellent. Let's now input a few basic details about our tire shop so it can generate a simple website for us. Pop in your company name, name your city, and your state or region. And it doesn't matter where in the world your business is operating from; you can enjoy the Mighty Sites service. We have happy users from all around the globe.
Once you click on "Continue," Mighty Sites will automatically generate a simple website for you and then automatically bring up this popup showing you how to customize your new website in under 30 seconds. For now, I'm going to close that off because today I'm going to be showing you the ropes.
Now, the beauty of Mighty Sites is we've actually pre-written all 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, as you can see, and they're also completely free for you to use. However, I'm sure you've got some of your own images of your shop, various tire brands that you stock in your shop, and you want to showcase it on your website. Maybe make one or two amendments to this content. Perhaps you don't offer all these services or all these brands. You don't need to know any coding to make any amendments to your website. You certainly don't need to be a professional, and you certainly don't need to hire anyone to help you with this either. You can literally do it all yourself. It's that simple.
So let's get started. Let me show you the ropes. 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 for my customers, so let's go ahead and check that box. Excellent. Phone number - that is click-to-call, by the way, and your physical location. When your website's live, your customers can actually click on that address and be taken directly to Google Maps for directions. And update social links is where you can put in the various social media platforms that your business is active on. Once you've done that, the profile icons will be displayed, social media icons will be displayed at the top as well as at the bottom of your website.
If you have a business logo, head on over to the next section to upload it. Once it's been uploaded, you can crop it, rotate it, add filters or frames by clicking on that pencil. Otherwise, here on the right is where you can make your logo bigger and smaller. It's that simple. For the colors, if you'd like to change them, you don't need to know any color coding. Click on that tiny paint bucket, bottom right-hand corner, and go through the various color palette options for you to choose from. For each section you want to make amendments to, make it a bit more personalized to your business, click on this "Update Section" button and "Update Images" where you could browse your device and upload your own images or search through the photo library. There's hundreds of free images to choose from, as you can see. They're all really high quality; they don't look like they've been taken on a mobile phone, very professional looking.
Otherwise, you have an option to connect your Instagram account with a click of a button, automatically pull in all your Instagram photos if you have a profile. And "Update Actions" where you can change those call to action buttons, the text on them, and where they're linked to. You can even upload a PDF file. And the last section is where you can put in your opening hours for your tire shop. Click on "Update Hours" over here, pop them in for every single day that you open. Once you click on "Save," the page will automatically reload after saving, and they will be displayed in this section over here.
If you have a custom domain for your business, go ahead and click on that yellow "Connect to Your Domain" button. If you don't have a custom domain, we really recommend that you get one to make your website look even more trustworthy, professional, and, of course, stand out from all your competitors. Go ahead and click on that button as well. You can actually purchase a custom domain via our platform as well.
I really hope that short tutorial was helpful in building a simple website for your tire shop, and I'm really wishing you and your business Mighty success.
