On a scale of 1 to 10 ,
 how good is zoho sites? 
  zoho sites with being found by potential customer searching the web for products , services?

I sell and service business phone systems into local markets in California.

My goal would be to increase sales and streamline my processes

I'm a single-seat, Zoho One Enterprise license holder. If my portal users are going to add records, wouldn't that increase revenue for Zoho as that is how Creator is monetized?
