How long does it really take?
Most people are live in two to three minutes, search your business, pick a style, publish. There is nothing to install and no signup needed to see your site first, because it is built from your Google listing rather than from a blank page.
Is it free?
Yes. You get a live site on your own name.clay.site address with a small badge in the footer, and nothing expires. The paid plan is your own domain, the badge removed and the pro features.
Do I need any tech skills?
None. If you can type your business name, you can build a Clay site: the live page is the editor, so you tap the thing you want to change. There is no code anywhere, and nothing to install or keep updated, see the WordPress comparison for what that saves.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes, buy it wherever you like and point it at Clay on a paid plan; the certificate is issued for you. Until then the free name.clay.site address is a real one you can print, and it keeps working afterwards.
Why name the exam board?
Because it is what gets typed. A parent searches the subject, the level and the board, and naming all three is the difference between being found and not.
Should I publish my rate?
Yes. A parent comparing tutors without prices assumes the most expensive answer, and the enquiry you lose is the one you never hear about.
Do I need online booking?
For a first session it helps a great deal, because a parent who has been meaning to sort this out for a month wants it done today: how booking works.
