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.



How is OhmCo's Website Builder best for business?

Features like click-to-call buttons, restaurant menus, and mobile maps are easy to add and customize.


Fast setup:

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?

Nope! OhmCo's Website Builder is versatile and powerful enough for any purpose, whether it's for your car wash business, car wash distribution, water treatment, family, club, street, or town.



How much does it cost?

We charge for the website design, and then after launch you have a bundled pack of goodies that you pay for with a low monthly fee. Right now it's $58/month, but subject to change. Want to get a quote? That's a great idea!

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.


How do I set up my Domain in OhmCo's Responsive Website?

You can purchase a domain name within the OhmCo publish flow, and it will be configured automatically. If you already own a domain, you can point it to your new site with a few simple steps.


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?

Yes, you can add AdSense and other third-party ads using our HTML feature.


Can OhmCo build my website for me?

Yes! It's what we do best! It's why we've launched SO MANY car wash websites!

Last week, Mel and I had the chance to attend the Heartland Car Wash Show in Council Bluffs, Iowa—a regional event that’s trying to find its footing again after a few bumpy years. If you’ve never been, the Heartland Show has historically drawn together car wash professionals from across the Midwest, but this year’s event came with some caveats. While it wasn’t the most polished affair we’ve attended, we walked away with the impression that there’s real potential for this show to evolve into something meaningful. That is, if the organizers can push through the growing pains.

Carwash Myths & Hollywood Hype: The First Automatic Car Wash Was NOT in California
By Mel Ohlinger April 21, 2025
For a long time, a certain story has drifted through the car wash world like a sudsy ghost. You’ll hear it in conventions, on websites and blogs, whispered reverently by folks who swear their uncle told them about it once: that the first automatic car wash opened in Hollywood, California in the 1940s. That it used a winch system to pull cars through a tunnel while attendants handled the scrub-down and drying. That it wasn't a FULLY automatic carwash, but it had the first automatic component - a winch and pully system to bring cars through a tunnel. Some claim it even used a tractor or a team of horses to automate the chain system.
