How to set a landing page

Updated over 7 months ago

What is a homepage and how is it significant?

The homepage is typically the first page that visitors see when they enter your website URL or click on your website's logo. It serves as the central hub for your website, guiding visitors to other sections and providing an immediate impression of what your site is about. Setting the right homepage is crucial as it sets the tone for the visitor's experience.

Can any page be set as the homepage?

Yes, on Vsble, any page within your website can be designated as the homepage. This flexibility allows you to tailor visitor experiences according to your business or creative needs.

How do I set a page as the homepage?

  1. Choose the Page: Navigate to the page settings of the page you want to set as your homepage.

  2. Set as Landing Page: Look for an option labeled ‘Set as Landing Page’ or similar in the settings menu and enable it. This action will designate that page as the primary landing page of your site.

  3. Hide Navigation Name (optional): If you prefer the page name not to appear in the navigation menu, activate the 'Hide Name in Navigation' option found in the same settings area.

What are popular options for a homepage and their benefits?

  1. Landing Page with Mixed Content:

    • Description: This type includes a collection of works from different categories or pages, often showcasing the best or newest content.

    • Benefits: It gives a broad overview of your offerings or portfolio, ideal for engaging new visitors and encouraging them to explore more.

  2. Single Image or Video Page:

    • Description: A homepage focusing on a single powerful image or a video.

    • Benefits: This setup is perfect for making a strong visual impact right away, useful for photographers, artists, or businesses wanting to highlight a specific campaign or project.

  3. Widget, Shop, or Product Feature Page:

  • Description: This page can feature interactive widgets, connected e-commerce shops, or specific products.

  • Benefits: Directly engages visitors with products or interactive elements, increasing the likelihood of conversions and prolonged interaction with your site.

Why might you choose to hide the page name in navigation?

Hiding the page name can streamline your site’s navigation and create a cleaner, more minimalistic look. It's especially useful if you want to emphasize other aspects of your site or if the homepage is meant to serve primarily as an introduction without needing direct navigation.

Conclusion:

Choosing the right homepage depends on your specific objectives and the nature of your content. Vsble's flexibility in homepage settings allows you to experiment with different configurations to see what works best for engaging your audience and enhancing their experience on your site.
