How to make a website for your small business in about 10 minutes

By Jakob Rubenstein, founder of QuikWebsites · Updated

Short answer: Write two sentences about what you do, where and for whom; generate the site with an AI website builder; check it against the checklist below (services, area, proof, a call button, hours, contact form); connect your domain; publish; then link it from your Google Business Profile. With QuikWebsites the build itself takes under 10 minutes and your first build is free.

Step 1: Write two sentences about your business

Say what you do, where, and for whom, and one thing that makes you different. For example: "J&B Pool Services does weekly pool cleaning and repairs in Boca Raton and Delray Beach. Family-owned, same tech every week, no contracts." That's enough for the AI to write the whole site.

Step 2: Decide what a visitor should do

Call you, book, request a quote, visit, or order. Every page should push toward that one action.

Step 3: Generate the site

On QuikWebsites, paste your description and the site is built in a few minutes: copy, logo, photography, layout and a scroll-driven video hero.

Step 4: Check it against the small business website checklist

  • Business name, phone number and address match your Google Business Profile exactly
  • A tap-to-call or booking button visible on a phone without scrolling
  • Your services, each in plain language
  • The towns or neighborhoods you serve
  • Proof: reviews, photos of real work, years in business, licenses
  • Hours, and a contact form that reaches your inbox
  • Real photos of you, your team or your place, where you have them

On QuikWebsites, fix anything by typing it: "add our license number to the footer", "use our real storefront photo at the top".

Step 5: Connect your domain and publish

Pick a plan ($19/month one page, $49/month unlimited pages), connect a domain you own or get one, and publish. Hosting and SSL are automatic.

Step 6: Tell Google and your customers

  • Add the website to your Google Business Profile
  • Submit it in Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools
  • Put it on your social profiles, invoices, van and business cards
  • Ask happy customers for reviews, and keep adding photos

Frequently asked questions

How much does a small business website cost?

An agency typically charges thousands of dollars and takes two weeks to two months. A DIY builder costs a monthly fee plus your time. QuikWebsites is $19/month for a one-page site or $49/month for unlimited pages, hosting included, and the build takes under 10 minutes.

Do I need a multi-page website?

Not to start. A strong one-page site covers most local businesses. Add pages when you want to rank for individual services or towns.
