Website building often challenges service businesses. These entrepreneurs and small businesses are busy serving customers, and the options for building a fast and effective site are often limited. 

GeneratePress is delighted to introduce our starter site packages specific to three critical businesses: bookkeeping, electrician, and landscaper businesses.

GeneratePress Makes Professional Sites Easy for Everyone

Our development team has made using the Service 2.0 starter sites simple so that pro web developers and small businesses building their own sites can enjoy all the benefits of a professionally designed website with a few easy steps. 

Where many other page builders and development tools require presentation logic on the site’s front end, GeneratePress does all of the heavy lifting behind the scenes. When you edit your site’s content and layout on the backend, GeneratePress creates all of the end-result code necessary to display your site on the front end. 

For site visitors, 100% of the code is compiled and ready to go. Even with zero coding knowledge, GenerateBlocks puts the power of professional-grade code into your hands. 

The result is the fastest and most performant experience for even the most high-traffic sites. Your site visitors get blazingly fast results every time.

How to Get Started with Services 2.0

We recommend installing one of the Services 2.0 starter sites on a fresh WordPress installation. If you decide to install it on an existing site, your settings will be overwritten. 

To get started, Go to Appearance > GeneratePress. Make sure the Site Library is Activated. 

Activate the GeneratePress Site Library

Next, click the link to go to the Site Library. 

Open the GeneratePress Site Library

Choose the Services 2.0 site you would like to use, whether Landscaper, Bookkeeping, or Electrician, or the Service 2.0 site and click “Get Started.” You must confirm that the process will overwrite existing site content. If you don’t have the Safe SVG plugin, it will be installed for you.

Click “Begin Import.” The process of downloading content to your site will take a few moments.
