​WEBSITE SOLUTIONS for RIDE MANAGERS

Getting a great website couldn't be any easier.

Picture

Here's how it works:

1. You ask me to build you a site.

2. I gather information and use it to build your site.

3. I email you a few questions to fill in any gaps in
    information.

4. You approve the site and it goes live!

...all without you needing to know anything about building or managing a website.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why should The Sweaty Equestrian create my page?

Simplicity ~ I'll gather the details to build a professional, mobile-device-optimized web page that contains all the information potential riders need. You don't need to know anything about managing a website. Just answer a few questions by email, and I'll do the rest.

Affordability ~ Website development usually runs in the hundreds (or even thousands) of dollars -- or hours, if you do it yourself. I will create your page for about the cost of a single ride entry. Choose the Basic Plan or Deluxe Plan to get annual renewals for half price! Or, for a super-affordable option, choose the Mini Plan and attract riders with a simple, online "ride flyer."

Visibility ~ Have you noticed that new, small, free sites often fail to show up in internet search results? Embedding your ride site in The Sweaty Equestrian's larger site will make it much easier for potential riders to find.


Social Media Promotion ~ Your ride will be featured in The Sweaty Equestrian's social media posts to help you reach more riders. 

Ad-Free ~ Your ride page won’t have any of those annoying ads or pop-ups that plague free websites.

By a Rider, for Riders ~ As an endurance rider and co-manager of a ride in the Northwest region, I speak the language and understand your needs. My professional background in writing, education, and project management gives me the tools I need to promote your event to old-timers and green beans alike.

How long does it take for my site to go live?

New sites typically go live within a week. Get yours started today.


​How will my online entry form work?

I will create your form in a free JotForm account that you can access directly at any time. You will be able to download entries in Excel format as often as you wish. I'll send you easy download instructions if you need them.

If you wish, I can turn the online entry option on only during a specific time window. This can be handy if you decide to upgrade your JotForm account for a month or two in order to accept payments (see below for additional information).


​Can I collect entry fees through my website or online entry form?

I am still looking for a cost-effective way to offer this service. In the meantime, I design all websites and online entry forms to include clear payment instructions. After submitting an entry form, each rider is directed to a page specifically designed to provide payment instructions. Riders also receive a submission confirmation email with a payment reminder.

You may decide to upgrade to a paid version of JotForm so riders can submit payments directly through the form. I'm happy to add this feature to your form. All you need to do is log into JotForm to pay for the upgrade (currently $29/month). 


What if I need to update ride information?

No problem! Just email me and I'll make the change. This goes for post-ride updates, too, like adding a link to your ride photographer's site when photos are available.
