Step 3:Creating Your Website’s Content

With this service, I’m offering you the opportunity to have up

to 5 webpages on your website.

In order to do this, I will need the actual typed words you

want to put on each of the 5 pages.

The 5 pages can be on anything you want as long as you

provide me with the words, but I’d recommend the following

setup:

• Homepage: Purpose of page = Get user to take action.

In today's short attention span world there's no time for fluff. Your Home Page is the gravity point of your site and your shot at convincing the end-user to stay on board for more than a few seconds. Keep it clean, clear and to the point.

If your website is promoting a product/service, include info about (a) What you are selling, (b) Why its the best product/service for your them, (c) Answers to common questions + Credibility boosters, and (d) Call to action

Page 16: Free Web Builder Guide

• About Us Page: Purpose of page = Build credibility.

The "About us" page is the second most important page of your website. Our experience taught us first time users always click on the "About us" page, to learn more about the company, BEFORE they complete an order, BEFORE they signup and BEFORE they decide to trust your company.

Don't even think about using a template for this page. Be honest, include personal information about the founders, how and why the website was launched and what is the vision behind the site.

Include information about your company's geographic location, years in business, business model and best way to get in touch with you (Yes, you want all this information on the 'About us' page, even if you have a 'Contact us' page).

• Contact Us Page: Purpose of page = Reinforce Credibility.

The "Contact us" page is only on this list because not having a "contact us" page is a major red flag.

No need to go crazy with your contact page. Include more than one form of contact (i.e. Phone and Email, or Email and Snail mail) and make it very clear that your company is always available to answer any questions, comments or concerns.

• Products/Services/Portfolio Page: Purpose of page = Give more information on what you offer

If you are offering products or services please list them on this page. You should give your visitors information on what features and benefits your products and/or services will have if they purchase them.

If you’re a model, writer, artist, or in some type of creative industry you should make this page your portfolio. Show off your best work here so that you will make a good impression on your visitors..

• F.A.Q’s Page: Purpose of page = Close the sale.

The user checked out your "home page" and they read the "about us" page. They're still not sure this is the right product/service for them, so they turn to your FAQ page.

Don't have an FAQ page? You just lost them.

The single purpose of your FAQ page is to answer any questions your prospect might have, further re-iterating why your product/service is a great fit.

Again this is just a recommended layout based on years of

web design experience. Your website project may be

different and not fit this cookie cutter template.

Whatever the case may be I’ll need text you want me to put

on each of the 5 pages. If you want images or videos, please

Youtube and send me the link to them if you want them on

your site.
