We build auto repair shop websites and we’ll tell you how much the service costs on this page. The goal of the car content writer website is to push your organic search engine listing up the ladder of results. Most of the time we can accomplish this without a website redesign. It’s also very rare that we recommend scrapping the old site completely and starting over from scratch.
With that said, some auto repair shop websites are starting to look long in the tooth. Some of these sites used cutting-edge design techniques from a decade ago. The same methods and techniques now make these websites look very old and tired. Therefore, we will build a new website when customers want to freshen up their web property. We can start from scratch with a new domain or have your current domain point to the new website.
The exciting thing about starting with a new auto repair shop website is the opportunity to avoid all of the mistakes you made the first time around. Here’s an example. Did you hire a website guy that locked you into a monthly charge that included hosting and domain name management?
These types of services also include a lot of things that either never came to fruition or were under delivered. One of the biggest complaints you hear is that the service included updates. However, when you go to take advantage of this included service you find resistance at the other end.
The problem with signing up with a website builder that offers an all-in-one solution is relinquishing control of an important part of your business. This is why we recommend a self hosting solution. We’ll get into this in the next section. But we want you to know that not only will we build you a new website, but provide you the option to control it.
Self Hosted Auto Repair Shop Websites
As mentioned, a self hosted auto repair shop website allows you to control and retain ownership of your web property. You pay the domain renewal and you pay for the hosting. After you have secured a plan that meets your requirements, you send us the login information. We build you a site and then teach you how to use it.
This means you don’t have to call us for updates, because you’ll learn how to change things yourself. With the use of control panels and dashboards, making changes to an auto repair shop website is within the skill level of most people. Especially when you’re talking about car mechanics that have a fix it yourself mentality.
When you no longer need us, you take the training wheels off and change the password which we also teach you how to do. Now your website is secure and under your control alone. If you want a website that looks like the car writer.com we can build this out for you for $749. That’s right, I just told you how much it’s going to cost. Go to those other website guys and see if they post their prices?
If you come across another site you would like to model after, send us a link to it. We’ll reverse engineer it and quote you a price for something similar. With that said, people learn how to use these websites at different rates of speed. For this reason we charge $50 an hour for training. We can bill at half hour increments and most training sessions last a half hour or $25. The same goes for updates or changes to your self hosted auto repair shop website.
If you don’t want to learn how to use it, we’ll make all of the changes that you want. Again, these are billed at the same hourly rate. Since we don’t include training or updates in the website building package, you don’t have to worry about us responding promptly to requests. Now let’s talk about the kind of website we build and see if this aligns with your specific needs.
Minimalist Automotive Website Designs
We use a self hosted Word Press installation, just like most other companies that build websites for businesses. However, we believe in minimalist automotive website designs that achieve consistent results. In the Internet marketing world, people believe that this type of design allows the customer to focus on your desired action. As an auto repair shop owner, you probably want someone to make an appointment or call the shop.
A flashy or colorful website can distract the visitor from taking the action that you desire. There’s another reason that we recommend this minimalism automotive website design process. As these web properties age any kind of en vogue or hot today styling choices generally don’t age well. The latest thing nowadays is the striped design. I’m not a big fan of this. And let’s see how long this fad lasts and what these websites look like in 10 years. It’s like shaggy carpet from the 1970s.
Long story short minimalist web designs age very well. However, we want to design a website for you and will follow your guidelines. Nevertheless, for the $749 price tag quoted above, we’ll use a standard Word Press installation using the included theme that comes with the self hosted installation. We like using this theme, because the same team developed it that built this particular version of Word Press.
It also meets the minimalism design styles we prefer. It’s a mobile friendly theme with a reasonable overhead that loads quickly when used properly. So if you’re looking for a new website and you’re okay with the design features on the car content writer website let’s make a deal.
What Kind of Website Do you get for $749
As a review, the kind of website you get from us for $749 remains one that you control. It’s also one that ages well, mobile friendly and all the customization needed to represent your business. Take a look around this site and click through the different pages to get an idea of what’s included. If you noticed it’s a static website with an attached blog.
The blog allows us to add new content to the website that keeps the customers and the search engines interested in revisiting. Note that all of the content on the website comes from you, not from the car writer. If you have an existing website, we’ll transfer that content to the new site at no additional charge. However, if you’re looking for us to update this content or write new pages I refer you back to the hourly charges.
If you’re looking to achieve maximum success with your new website, we recommend our writing services. These include 800 to 1000 word articles posted to your blog that meet our strict content quality guidelines. Each article comes with automotive social media postings to help draw attention to the new car repair content.
We build auto repair shop websites that you control. If you compare this to a standard website builder that charges a monthly fee, you’ll find this an amazing value. As an example, if that website guy charges $99 a month, at the end of five years you paid just shy of $6,000. With our program you spend as much as you want with no questions asked and no commitment.
