Hi, and welcome, everyone. Today I will show you how to use this simple business website maker by Mighty Sites. All you need to do it's only $9 a month, and you log in and start a free trial. You've got a seven-day free problem. Different themes and templates depending on what type of small business you own. So it's already populated with text images to make the process easy for you. So again, this is a straightforward business website maker. Let's say that I own a contractor business. I would search for my type of business. So again, even for contractors, all kinds of different contractors are represented here. Let's say that I am a roofing contractor. That's a common type of small business. I'm going to click on that.

Enter Your Business Information

I'll call this Keegan's Roofing business. And then I'll just put in my location. Let's say I'm in Raleigh, North Carolina. And then this would be a retail restaurant service. So it depends on the type of business you selected, but a roofing business that's a service when you build a roof for somebody. So I'm just going to click continue. And I told you this was a simple business website maker. And I said that because, just like that, after I enter my information, the system will automatically generate a simple professional website for my small business. So you can see here it's got everything I need to start. So it took my name and what I entered about my business and wrote all the text. I can quickly go in here and edit. Let's say I don't do shingle cleaning. I could delete that, delete the bullet point, click save, and now it is gone. Or if I just wanted to add some text here, I could say this is a small business website maker.

Easily Edit Text Using The Website Maker

It is a straightforward website maker. So I can enter the text, click save, close it, and now the text shows up. Now, it's easy to do for any section if I want to make edits. So I can go to the update section here. I can easily add my phone number, so I'll add that in case somebody wants to contact me. I can add my email address. So I'll add my actual email address, and then I can click if I want my email address to show on the site. There we go. I can save that and close it if I want to put my address. I can add that, too, if I want to add my social media links. So we have Twitter, and then there's another one here. So we'll add Facebook.

Update Social Links and Contact Information on Your Website

All right, if I save those social links close, we've got those included there as well. So you can see the website's already starting to come together. I can choose where I want my call to action to link. So if I want this, I'll have that link to it, I can have it click to email me or call me, or I can have it linked to that lead form section on my site. So if somebody clicks on that, it'll just jump them right down to submit themselves as a lead, which I'll show you again in a minute. I suggest having the contact us button call or email me when they click on it. I'll do it as a call.

Because many people might view my site on mobile, I would like you to click contact us and call me to talk. Again, super easy and professional to do if I want to change any of this. Let's say I prefer to have this capitalized. I can go in here, and I could capitalize it like that. Reliable residential and commercial roofing professionals go like commercial contractors. I want those capitalized. That looks pretty nice there. I want to change this to an amper stand, so it's easy to do. Save that. Close it. I wanted to add a logo so I could go over here to update a logo. And I could. If you need a logo, go to Canva, and it's really easy.

Create A New Logo For Your Business

Canva.Com, you can click on the logo, and then you can search for a logo. So I can just put contractor here. And again, there are all different types of logos. I'll use this first one that pops up, and then I can say, this is my roofing company logo, so I'll download that now. So, instead of paying for a logo, you can create a nice little logo for your business. I'll go over here now. I'll browse and upload that logo I just made. So again, it took me about one minute to create a logo for my business, and I'll save it as soon as possible. I can make it bigger. I can make it smaller and then see what my logo looks like when it is smaller. So the image, I'd want to crop that.

Simple Solutions For Editing Images and Logos

So I can click here on this pencil. And then what I'll do is I'll pull this down like this. I'll pull that up, and then maybe I'll bring it in a little bit, so it's not taking up, so there's not so much white space around my logo. And then I'll save that click done. And there are all sorts of editing tools when you click on the pencil for your logo or anything else, but you just made those edits. I'll save it. There we go. And now I can make it smaller. It's a lot easier to see. So now, again, I've got a simple professional website coming along quickly. This system is a really simple business website maker. As you can see, part of it is because all the images are included, but it's also really easy to edit the text, links, and pictures and be ready to launch this quickly.

Change Colors Using This Simple Website Maker

So if I want to change the colors, I can change the colors just by simply selecting through all the different color palettes to find one that matches my business type the best. And once I see one that I like, you know, and again, there's, we're adding new color palettes all the time and different ones to choose from for your business. So once you find one you like, you can say, okay, great. I want a very clean, you know, white background website. There we go. So once you find a template that works well for your business, you click save, and then you can go down here. And again, I showed you that one of the best parts of having a website is generating leads for your business. So I can go right in here. I'll type in my name, email, and phone number and then say I need a new roof.

Generate Leads Through Your Website

And then I click send. And now, this is your website for your small business. Your customer will get this little thank you message. And if I stop editing and go here to the site dashboard, I can now see I have a new lead. So I can go in here, check my new leads, contact them, and close those deals. So that's what the website will do to help you generate new business. Once you're ready to launch it, you go here to collect, connect a domain, put in your domain name, and save, and it walks you through the process of connecting your Google domains, your GoDaddy account, and your domain.com. Just get that connected and launch your new website. So once that's good, you can always go back here and edit the site. But that's it.
