Let's write an article about you

One business per article, in your own words. It gets published on MechanicRank, it links to your profile and your own site, and Google indexes it. It is free and it is yours to share anywhere.

Takes about ten minutes. Write as much or as little as you want on each question. Short honest answers beat long polished ones.

Who you are

So we can credit you properly and send you the link when it publishes.

Your name *

Business name *

Email *

Mobile number *

City and state *

Your website optional

How customers find you

All optional, and all of it goes on the article. The email and mobile above are only for us, so a customer never sees them unless you fill in the public email here.

Facebook page optional

Instagram optional

Email to show publicly optional

Leave it blank and no address goes on the page.

Best way to get in touch optional

We say so on the article, so nobody guesses wrong.

The questions

Answer in plain language, the way you would tell a customer. We do the writing.

1. How did you get into this trade? *

Where you learned, who taught you, and when you went out on your own.

2. What job do you get called for most, and what does it honestly cost? *

A real range is fine. People search for this more than anything else.

3. What repair do people think is expensive that isn't, or cheap that isn't? *

The thing customers always guess wrong about.

4. Tell us about a car someone was told to junk that you brought back. *

Or any repair you are proud of. This is usually the best part of the article.

5. What is on your van, or in your bay, that lets you do what most can't? *

Scan tools, welder, programming, press. What you can do at the roadside that a shop does on a lift.

6. What is the one maintenance item people skip that costs them the most later? optional

7. What area do you cover, and what does a first call with you look like? *

Towns and radius, and what happens after someone rings you.

8. What should someone check before they hire a mechanic? optional

Favourite car you have ever worked on *

Year, make and model, and why it stuck with you. Send a picture of it below.

Photos

These matter more than the writing. An article with real photos of a real person gets read and shared; one without looks like every other directory page. Straight off your phone is perfect. Send them at whatever size they are and we will handle the rest.

Anything elseoptional

I own this business or am authorised to speak for it, the photos are mine to publish, and MechanicRank may publish my answers and images as an article. *

We read every submission before it publishes. If something is unclear we will email you rather than guess. Nothing goes live without a human reading it first.
