Once you join the platform, the first thing it's going to ask you to do at the top is to search for your market. Now, we have hundreds of different markets to choose from for various small businesses. We are adding more markets every single week. So let's go ahead and search for our market, "inflatable rentals". There it is over there. Let's go ahead and select that. Great. Let's tell Marats a few basic details about our business so it can generate a simple website for us. I'm going to put in my city, my state or region, and it doesn't matter where in the world your business is located. You can enjoy the Mite service. We have happy users from all around the globe. Once you've clicked on "continue", Mighty Sites will automatically generate a website for you with the information you've just put in. And there you have it! It's really done it in a couple of seconds. Let's take a close look at what it's come up with together.

Now, the beauty of the Mighty Sites platform is, we've actually pre-written all the content for you as a guideline. Of course, we've pre-selected the images as well. They are all really high quality, as you can see, completely free for you to use. 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 you'd like to showcase on your website. Maybe make one or two amendments to this content that was pre-written for you. Make it a little bit more personalized to your business. You can absolutely do that; it's super simple. You don't need to know any website coding or be a web professional in any kind of way. And you certainly don't need to hire anyone to help you with this either. You can literally do it all yourself, even if you're not that tech-savvy. So let's get started. Let me show you how it works.

I'm going to click on the first section at the top and go ahead and pop in my email address over here. I want to make sure that that's visible on my website for my customers to see, so let's go ahead and check that box. Phone number is just "click to call", and your address, your physical location - maybe mobile, so leave it off, but if not, pop it in over here. The great thing about it is, when your website's live, your customers can actually click on that address and be taken to Google Maps automatically for directions. Under "update Social Links", is where you can put 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. In the next section, you can go ahead and upload your logo over here. Once it's been uploaded, click on that pencil to crop it, rotate, add filters or frames. Otherwise, click on "Save" at the bottom. Over here on the right is where you can make your logo bigger and smaller.

Now, with Mighty Sites we've pre-selected the colors for you. If you'd like to change them to go with your logo, perhaps, or your marketing, your branding, click on that paint bucket in the bottom right-hand corner. There are so many color palettes to choose from, they're all completely there. There's no color coding needed at all. You can literally just choose a color palette that suits you best. Great! Now for each section you want to make amendments to, click on that button directly underneath it. Head on over to "update image". This is where you can browse your device and upload your own awesome images. Otherwise, search through that photo library. Hundreds of images to choose from, they're all high quality and they're completely free. Otherwise, you now have the option to connect your Instagram account with a click of a button. Automatically pull in all those Instagram photos. And "update action" is where we can change those "call to action" buttons, the text on the buttons, and where they're linked. You can even link to another website if you take bookings for inflatables. Otherwise, you can upload a PDF file, maybe with a catalog or brochure of the various inflatables you have in store, available for events. In the last section, we have a lead generation form where your customers can easily reach out to you. Keep track of all your leads in your Mighty Sites dashboard.

If you have a custom domain for your business, you can connect it by clicking on the yellow button at the bottom. If you don't have a domain yet and you really want one to make your website look even more professional, trustworthy, and stand out from all your competitors, go ahead and click on that button as well. You have the option to purchase a custom domain at an additional price by clicking on that button as well. I really hope this tutorial was helpful in building a website for your inflatable business. I'm really wishing you and your business, Mighty success!
