FAQs

These days, your website is your storefront. Most home inspection businesses don't have a physical storefront. When a potential client visits your website, their first impression is everything and can determine whether or not they decide to schedule an inspection with you.
The more people you can send to your website, the better, so sending your clients to your own website instead of HomeGauge.com to sign their agreement and access their reports strengthens your website's performance with search engines.
Content is a top ranking factor in Google's algorithm, which is why we provide search engine friendly content for your Home Page, About the Company Page, and Services Page, all included with the purchase of your website build. Our content writers write content to market your company based on the information you provide in your Content Questionnaire, and from your Content Interview. We keep in mind that potential customers and search engines are reading the content, so we make sure it meets Google's standards and contains relevant headings and keywords throughout.
When a new website and domain name are first launched, it takes search engines a while to know it exists. This is just the nature of the web. We provide SEO services to encourage search engines to crawl and index your website, which can result in more visitors and more inspections!
Yes, if you are enrolled in either Managed Hosting or DIY Hosting, you may switch between hosting plans at any time you choose depending on your needs. The SEO Builder program is designed to provide SEO benefits over a period of time and we request a minimum 6 month commitment, after which you may opt-out and downgrade to either Managed or DIY Hosting. You'll receive the most out of SEO Builder the longer you're in it, so we do recommend staying in the program long-term. If not enrolling in the SEO Builder, the majority of inspectors select Managed Hosting for at least the first few months after their websites have launched in order to have our Developers take care of any final alterations or additions they would like to see on their new websites.
We have access to libraries filled with thousands of top-quality stock images that our developers will use to make your website pop! If you would like to submit a photo of yourself to include on your website, we encourage you to do so.
We recommend purchasing your domain name from godaddy.com. The privacy protection add-on is a good idea because it will hide your personal contact information from public databases. You do not need to purchase web hosting or email addresses from them because we will take care of that for you. It's a good idea to secure your domain name for several years so that you won't need to worry about renewing it right away.
A logo is a very important part of your company's branding. We will base design elements of your website around your logo so it is highly recommended that you already have one when we start building your website. If you do not have a logo but would like one, https://www.fiverr.com/ is a good place to start. They provide affordable logos with quick turnaround. If you are a member of InterNACHI, they will design you a free logo with the purchase of promotional materials such as brochures or business cards.
Nope. While HomeGauge users will benefit from add-ons like the HomeGauge Login, the Public Appointment Request feature, and auto-updating HomeGauge Testimonials, HomeGauge is happy to build a website for you no matter whose software you use!
You will be asked to fill out a brief online Content Questionnaire, and to hold a Content Interview, a Design Review, and a Final Review. It is also helpful for you to submit a logo and — if you wish — a picture of yourself. You may also submit additional materials, such as a Sample Report and a Pricing Page, if you would like these to be included on your website. Remember, with Managed Hosting, supplementary materials can be added for you at any time. Since we'll be taking care of the content writing and the web design, we'll be sure to get your input on every aspect of your website build, but we'll tackle the legwork ourselves.
Studies show that over 50% of people are viewing websites through mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. If your website is not responsive to these devices, your potential client will leave your website. All the websites we build look great on all sized devices, so that no matter what device is used, the site still has a user-friendly layout.
