WHAT ALL can I customize ON MY WEBSITE?Contractor Website Laptop Mockup

You have the option to choose from two different website themes that best suit your preferences. We personalize your website by adding your business name, contact information, and even your logo if you have one. But the customization options don't stop there. You have the freedom to customize every aspect of your website, from the navigation menu to the text and background colors. The possibilities for personalization are endless, allowing you to create a website that truly reflects your brand's identity in a consistent and memorable way. Take a look at this example to get an idea of how your website could look.

WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MY WEBSITE?

We register your custom domain for you and  manage the creation of your website through our web hosting manager for a total of 3 years. This tool allows us to host your website on our servers, so you don't have to! Near the end of the three years, you have the option to renew for an additional 3 years for $400. This total covers renewal and hosting costs. Alternatively, we can send your files or transfer your domain to you if you'd prefer to host it yourself on your registrar and host platform.

What does “custom business domain” mean?

This simply means you get to pick your URL, provided it’s available. Once selected, you can let us know and we'll register it for you on domain registrar. For example, if your company is called Doug's Dust-Free Blasting of Portland, you might choose dougsblasting.com.

What is web hosting aND WHERE DOES THE EMAIL FIT IN?

Web hosting is kind of like paying rent to be on the Internet. Three years of web hosting is included in your package. When that time is up, don’t worry, you won’t have to pay $8,995 again! It only costs $400 to renew your hosting for another three years.

Your website also comes with up to 5 business email addresses that utilize your custom business domain to let your web visitors know that your business is professional and official. (e.g. doug@dougsblasting.com, info@dougsblasting.com, and invoices@bobsblasting.com.) The mail type that is included with your website is called webmail. It is connected to your website through the host manager and we'll provide you with the link to access your mail. We also provide you with the means to connect it your mobile device so you check and send emails on the go!

YOUR SITE IS SAFE AND SECURED

All websites come equipped with SSL which is a standard security technology that establishes an encrypted link between our server and your website. The SSL certificate allows visitors to see that your website is safe and secure to use so they don't have to worry about the safety of your site and you won't have to worry about the potential risk of your website's search ranking to drop. It will appear as lock icon in the top left corner of the URL search bar at the top of your web browser.

MOBILE-OPTIMIZED FOR BETTER PERFORMANCE

Your website is mobile-optimized to give visitors a seamless browsing experience. What does this mean? This means that your website can be easily viewed across any device with responsive formatting to that device. You'll also receive unlimited bandwidth, so your site's speed isn't capped. We also incorporate caching to help improve website performance which in turn can improve your website's SEO.

WE CAN UPLOAD YOUR PHOTOS TO YOUR GALLERYadd-pics-to-website

Showing examples of your work makes a great impression on potential customers. Once your online presence setup is completed, we'll send you a link where you can upload your before and after photos from your computer or mobile device. We'll be notified and then make any necessary edits or adjustments for optimization so we can add them to your website gallery or social media. You can upload up to 20 photos at once.

Can I have backend access to my website?wordpress-logo

We’re always happy to make simple changes for you at any time in the future — like your business name, contact information, or location if those change over time. If you want to make more complex changes, we’ll give you access to the back end of your site. Our websites are built in Wordpress, so it’s best to be familiar with that platform. There is one caveat once you have backend access to your website: if you break anything, you are the one responsible for fixing it.

Advertising is a crucial part of getting customers, and we understand the importance of making it as easy as possible for you. With our Premium Online Presence™ package, we take care of all your advertising needs so you can focus on what you do bestproviding excellent blasting services. Our goal is to help you reach a wider audience and attract potential customers in your local community.

WHAT ARE GOOGLE ADS AND HOW DO THEY WORK?

A Google Ad is designed to resemble a regular search result, but it appears at the top position. However, it's important to note that its appearance is not guaranteed to be immediate or constant or result in a call. It is up to the searcher to take action. By providing Google Ads with information about your business, we can create compelling ads that target individuals in your service area locations who are actively searching for the services you offer. Through the use of keywords and location targeting and other factors, we can optimize your ads to reach the most relevant audience. Google Ads employs an algorithm that assesses the provided information and continuously analyzes and optimizes your ads to create an automated bid strategy and display them to web users who are most likely to click on them. Learn more about how Google Ads work.

In this example, let’s pretend I need to hire a lawn mowing service, so I type in in “lawn mowing near me.”

See how Google already knew I was in Houston, without having to type it in? We'll create ads that similarly target people in your area who need blasting services.

What other kind of ads do I get?

We will also create engaging video ads specifically tailored for Facebook and Instagram. These ads are called paid social ads and are designed to reach people in your local area, raise awareness about your blasting services and make it easier for them to get in touch with you.

Will I get charged for these ads?

You don't have to worry about any additional charges for the first three months of advertising. It is already included in the cost of the Premium Online Presence package.

Can I continue advertising after the initial period?

Certainly! We provide a range of advertising renewal packages that are customized to fit your advertising budget. This allows you to consistently and efficiently promote your blasting business even after the initial period. You can view your ad renewal options here.
