Create Your Perfect Fitness Website

Small Business Website FAQ

• Does every fitness trainer need a website?

  Yes! Even if you do most of your business in-person, clients are now used to doing research online before they choose a gym or a fitness class. And with so many choices out there, it’s important to keep your information up to date online. Especially now that most people use mobile devices to search for things like: “local Yoga studio” or “find a personal trainer near me.” If you decide to expand your business—you could branch out and become an online personal trainer, for example—then a website will let clients follow your social media accounts, watch your workout videos, and shop in your online store, all in one place. And if you're not based in a fixed gym or studio then having your own personal trainer website gives you a place to showcase your results and display your professional qualifications.
