People still look at websites? (alien.top)

I own a couple businesses, and one which is a niche construction business is taking off. As in it is growing so fast I may need to actually hire full time employees… which I also dread.

Yesterday, I received two phone calls and both asked if I had a website. To keep costs down, I have not had a website built, but I guess that needs to change. On the other businesses, the websites are built but no one looks at them from the monthly emails I get on who has been to my site. Now, people are looking for this business.

For those who understand, I’m in that growing stage where I need to spend money to grow, but I don’t want to risk the spending in case something may happen. Websites, needing to upgrade my business apps, ordering large amounts of supplies and employees.

I guess I’m just taken aback by how odd people have been due to a lack of websites when I have never had anyone really look before. Which now I’m up at the witching hour doing estimates, invoices, and now checking on at least a static website maker.

I have heard of GitHub, but does anyone recommend any other static website making types? Any help would be appreciated.

Check-out Carrd!!! Idk why they don't get the attention they deserve 🤣

They have a free plan or a pro plan for *** $19 ** per year & you can create up to like 25 different websites! And if you don't want to buy a domain, you can publish with a yourcompanyname.carrd.co

You can build one-page sites for pretty much anything - and it's especially perfect for businesses that just need a place for people to check your info, and submit a contact form or a quote request.

Plus contact forms, email captures, embedded links, payment & email marketing app integration... for the price and ho2 easily you can get a website up, 10/10 recommend.

I have 10 different sites setup on carrd 🤣 if you need help, let me know. https://try.carrd.co/k1yvrllk[carrd](https://try.carrd.co/k1yvrllk (that's an affiliate link, they're the only affiliate program I've ever signed up for lol)
