Chaparral / Sample sites

Sample sites, one for each kind of business I build for

Each one is written for a made-up business, with a made-up address and a 555 phone number. A real site starts from the closest sample and is rewritten from your own menu, price list, hours and photos, in your words. A new site is $600, paid once.

  1. The first screen of the sample site for Milpas Auto Works.

    Auto repair

    Smog, tires, body shops, detailing

    Built around the work order. You type your mileage and the page shows what service is due, and the contact form is set like a carbon-copy ticket.
