What is a responsive site?

A responsive site is like a car wash that adjusts its nozzles based on the size of your vehicle. It changes how content is displayed depending on the device, ensuring everything looks shiny and new whether on a phone, tablet, or desktop.



What advantages does a responsive site offer?

Responsive sites are like having different-sized sponges for different messes. They allow you to tailor your visitors' experience based on their device, ensuring everything is sparkling clean no matter how they access your site.



Is OhmCo responsive design?

Absolutely! OhmCo uses responsive design to ensure your content looks fantastic on any device. You can decide which content to show and how it should be displayed based on the viewer's device. It’s like choosing the right soap for the job.


How is OhmCo's Website Builder smarter than responsive design?

OhmCo's Website Builder goes beyond just being responsive. It minimizes the data sent to each device, ensuring fast load times even for smaller screens. Plus, you can customize content based on variables like date and more – it's like having a custom cleaning schedule for your site!



Do I need to pick a device?

Nope! OhmCo's Website Builder makes sure your site looks splash-tacular on desktops, tablets, and mobile phones. You can choose to hide content from certain devices, but your website will still shine on any screen size.

Once you hit publish, your site is live.


Integrated hosting:

Hosting is included with all OhmCo subscriptions, so you don't need to worry about it.

Is this only for business sites?

How does hosting work?

Your multi-screen website is hosted with OhmCo, and hosting is included in the price. Sites built with OhmCo must stay on our platform and cannot be exported to a different host.

Are there limits to the number of sites, pages, and what I can host from my account?

There’s no hard limit on the number of sites you can build. You can create up to 1000 site pages and popups, and 1500 blog pages. Dynamic pages don’t count towards this limit. There’s also no bandwidth limit, and you can embed various file types.

Can I completely migrate my existing site to OhmCo?

Currently, you can recreate your site using our platform, but direct migration isn't supported.

Can OhmCo's Website Builder import my existing site?

While OhmCo can pull content from most sites, it can't import content written in Flash, Java, or similar external applets, or content gated through AJAX, JavaScript, or jQuery.


Do I need to already have a site?

Nope! You can start from scratch or import content from your Facebook page or one of our pre-designed templates.

Can I export and host my OhmCo site on another host?

Unfortunately, you cannot export your OhmCo site to another host due to the nature of our SAAS platform. However, you can always make changes within the OhmCo editor.


Can I create and save a custom template?

Yes! For more information, see our Create Site Templates section.


Does OhmCo's Responsive Website Builder support eCommerce?

Yes, our builder has a robust eCommerce system built-in. While it can’t automatically import shopping carts, products can be imported via CSV.

Do I need a domain name? Does OhmCo sell domains?

OhmCo doesn’t currently sell domain names, but you can use a custom subdomain of ohmco.co or purchase a domain name within the publish flow.

Is there an API?

Yes, see our API section for more info.


Can I add banners to my site?

SCWA 2026 Recap Location & Date: Fort Worth, TX Feb 25-27 2026 Who Attended: Mel Ohlinger, Mike Ohlinger With another SCWA conference under our belts, we can confidently say that this is one of our favorite shows and is a great way to kick off the year's trade show season. The only downside is flying out of Appleton --- our luck flying out of our regional airport and not hitting crippling delays or Home-Alone-worthy runs to make connecting flights has been...difficult.

Women In Carwash 2026 Location & Date: ClearWater, FL Jan 18-20 Who Attended: Mel Ohlinger, Mike Ohlinger, the KIDS Women in Carwash 2026: Sunshine, Mickey Mouse, and a Little Marketing Talk The 2026 Women in Carwash Conference brought us down to Clearwater, Florida this year. We decided to surprise the kids by bringing them along with us to take advantage of our time in Florida. We packed up the kids, booked the flights, and turned it into something a little bigger than a work trip. It was the kids' first time in Florida, and for Iona, her first time on a plane altogether. Watching her figure out what to make of that experience was worth the trip on its own. We spent a day at Disney before the conference kicked off, which was our first time there. Mike had been there as a kid, but being there as adults brings into focus the insane logistics behind the operation of the parks. Trying to see behind the scenes, looking for the signature paint colors that subconsciously indicates areas that your brain should ignore (spots that were under construction) was fun. The weather was a little dicey and cold (for Florida's sake), which made for some emergency sweatpant shopping, but it was a great day and night!

OhmCo Carwash Marketing 2025 Recap  Some things happened. And then a few more did. And even more after that. Busy. That's the word of the year, of 2025. Whenever people ask us how we are, how we're doing, how we've been, my brain immediately calls that word up out of the depths while my eyes automatically drift upwards in the same song and dance. "Busy, but good!". As a small business owner, every single year brings new challenges, new victories, new skull-splitting migraines, new successes --- but trying to reflect back on this year just brings a bit of an initial blank. It's like when someone runs up to you to ask you what your favorite movie of all time is and you have to stop for a moment and realize you're having a hard time naming any movie, much less your favorite. Mel and myself (this is Mike here, putting pen to paper) have routinely been catching each other in conversations with exclamations that usually start and end with " That happened this year?!". I just want to clarify --- I'm not painting this kind of busy as a bad thing. In the world of bizz, having an influx of amazing customers and engaging, challenging projects is about everything you can ask and hope for. We've been extraordinarily fortunate to be able to work with some of the most interesting, hard working, kindest people in this industry, and watching them operate and succeed over this past year has been amazing. Anyways, I'll keep this recap kind of short, because: Busy . It is Christmas break, the kids are home, and that beeping noise that's coming from the kitchen is just getting louder and not going away. If this is as far as you make it --- THANK YOU to all of the industry professionals, clients, and operators that we've had the pleasure of working with this past year. Thank you for the continued business, trust, and support. We are excited to continue to offer the tools and design to help your business succeed in the carwash industry and can't wait to see what we can pull off in 2026.
