Yola-Creating Your Own Business Website
by Mr. Marketology
Like thousands of others I have discovered the wonderful world of Yola. For those of you who may not be familiar with Yola it is one of several free website building and hosting sites. What sets Yola apart from other free website builders is the quality of their website builder, the ability to receive professional design assistance and the company support and user community that underlies Yola.
Yola provides more than merely free web hosting and website builder. Their support and education is second to none. With Yola TV you have access to webinars and tutorials on basic seo, how to add various meta tags, text links, Google analytics, images, navigation and much more. If you need additional help you can contact the Yola community, email or use their chat support.
A great new feature of Yola is their premier service. Yola has partnered with HP Logoworks to bring you a package that includes one on one consultation with a professional designer. With this upgrade package you can work directly with a professional to design your website. This is perfect if you don't have the time to devote to learning how to do your own website properly. The cost is minimal for professional website design.
Yola provides both independent and sub-domain names which makes it perfect for the amateur or for business. The large template library and premium templates give you everything you need to customize a great looking website complete with photos and video, a paypal shopping cart, editable backgrounds and text, your own logo, appointment booker, Google maps and much more.
Just recently Yola was the victim of a serious cyber attack that brought down all of their hosted sites. Yola responded immediately and professionally. Their transparency and honesty in dealing with the situation and their customers was impressive. They immediately contacted everyone and posted a thorough explanation of the problem, why it happened and what they are doing to prevent anything similar from happening in the future on their community forum, email, Facebook and Twitter. They take customer service seriously and they walk their talk.
If you are looking to create a business or personal website do yourself a favor and spend time researching and getting to know Yola. If you aren't certain you want to do it yourself Yola provides you with upgrade options to give you professional design help. The ability to control your own website development and yet have that professional design ensures you end up with a professional, optimized, fully functional website that will be able to compete well against your competition.
