Where To Advertise Handyman Services In Australia?
Whatâs a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
You did it.
You set up your ABN number, registered your business name, purchased the equipment you need and even created a website.

Google Ads & Facebook Ads
While advertising on online marketplaces for free is ideal for kickstarting your business, paid ads are a surefire way to get plenty of traffic to your website and build a solid customer base in the long run.
Here are some of the main benefits of paid advertising on Facebook and Google:
- These platforms offer robust analytics to help you tweak your marketing and advertising strategy and improve your sales over time.
- ââFacebook adsââ is one of the most popular advertising tools for businesses because it allows companies and organisations to micro-target and reach their ideal customer. Among some of the targeting options, youâll find interests, behaviours, age, gender or even occupation.
- Business pagesâ visibility in news feeds has decreased over the last few years, turning paid ads into the most effective tool to reach a wide audience.
- Advertising with Google ads will drive your sales much faster than if you were relying purely on your SEO. To rank on the first page of Google, not only do you need to consistently publish high-quality content that brings value to your audience, but youâll also need to amass a large number of backlinks which could take you years.
