To give yourself the best possible start, here are four key actions you can take today. Each one will have a real impact on your website's performance and your customer experience.

 

1) Watch Your Training Video

The DotGO website editor is powerful — but easy once you know how it works.
? Take 10–15 minutes to watch your training video, so you can confidently edit text, swap photos, and add updates yourself.

2) Verify Your Google Business Profile

If you haven't already, make sure your Google Business Profile is live and verified. This is key to showing up on Google Maps and in local searches. Your designer will have sent you your login details for your Google account, but you can always ask for them again.

? Add your business services, opening hours, and a few great photos.

? Most customers search on Google before contacting a business – this helps them find you.
