Websites are a small (and well worth it) monthly investment, and your template purchase only includes the design, Showit course, and resources provided. In order to have your website live on the web, you need to pay monthly for a hosting subscription and have a private domain (e.g. www.businessname.com). Showit's subscription begins at $19/month billed yearly which includes hosting, backup storage and support. View Showit's plans & get your first month free right here! 

There may be additional costs depending on if you're looking for any features on your website. These are not mandatory but includes email marketing platform, appointment scheduler, custom fonts, Shopify Lite/cart system, etc.

Every new software you've never used before will have a learning curve. But once you've watched all of the lessons & tried out all of Showit's features, you'll end up having so much fun! With each page already designed for you, all you have to do is swap out colors and images, add in your written content, and make any small tweaks you’d like. So while you’ll be doing it yourself, you’ll have a giant head start, and it's already half way finished before you even start.  

Showit also has an amazing collection of tutorials that can help answer questions I didn't cover. They have an outstanding support team available by live chat directly in their editor and their FB group with 10K+ Showit Users that are always happy to answer questions. They have the BEST customer service team I've ever encountered. You can also leave a comment or message in the course!

Yes! Showit offers built-in SEO tools to help you optimize your website for search engines. There's an option to add page titles/descriptions, image descriptions, and more. I can't personally guarantee an improvement to your ranking, as the platform doesn't matter as much as these factors: website traffic, your content & keywords, business strategies, etc. These are all things I cannot provide or give with my templates as each business is unique, but I do cover SEO in the course & you also get access to my best-selling SEO e-guide, that will hopefully make you rank in no time!  And I will say, many of my clients who made to switch to Showit have seen a huge increase in their ranking - wooo! 

Yes it's possible! It is possible to add a small shop on the side. This requires a third-party paid cart system like Shopify Starter, ThriveCart or WooCommerce (Advanced Blog Plan only) which I go over in my course on how to use it on your website. You can also find more information right here.  If your business is primarily focused on e-commerce (e.g. clothing boutique), I would recommend an e-commerce focused website builder.  

While the design you see has a specific industry for demonstration purposes (e.g. wedding planner, photographer) - all you have to do is make it fit YOUR brand and industry. Instead of focusing on the industry example when choosing your template - focus on the overall design layout and pages/sections included. If you love pull-out navigation menus, you might love Dominique or Sunny Days. If you're wanting a sales page, you might love Samantha. No matter which template you purchase, you can fully customize it to make it your dream website! Swap content, replace fonts, re-arrange sections, delete or hide pages, customize layouts — the limit is endless.

It's a breeze! Simply point your domain records (you'll be shown how) to Showit - that's it. Showit will handle the setup process & provide assistance if needed for your website launch. Here's more helpful information on how it works.
