+===== Your Business Site =====
+If you provide services to the public you will be more successful if you have your own page to describe your services.   If you have a Facebook, Nextdoor or LinkedIn profile, that helps you build business inside that network, but those private sites can remove your page, your posts, your comments or whatever they like.  Users trying to find your site, or happy customers reccommending you don't have a public link they can refer to.
