What are the initial steps required to create a new page in the WebStarts website editor? ▼
To create a new page in the WebStarts website editor, first log into your account and select the site you wish to edit. Once in the editor, click on the "Pages" tab, usually found in the toolbar at the top. Then, click "Add Page" and choose a template or start with a blank page. After that, you can name the page and begin customizing it with content and design elements to suit your needs.
Can you explain the difference between creating a blank page and copying an existing page in WebStarts? ▼
Creating a blank page in WebStarts allows you to start with a clean slate in the body of the page, giving you complete freedom to design and structure the page from scratch, perfect for custom layouts or unique content. A blank page will maintain your header and footer to maintain the continuity of your site.
On the other hand, copying an existing page duplicates all the elements and formatting from a previously created page, including the body, which can save time if you're looking to maintain a consistent design or repurpose content across multiple pages.

How can the page name affect search engine optimization (SEO) for a website? ▼
The page name, often reflected in the URL, plays a crucial role in SEO as it helps search engines understand the content of the page. A well-chosen page name should include relevant keywords related to the page's topic and be concise and descriptive, aiding both in search engine ranking and user navigation. Additionally, a clear and structured URL can improve click-through rates as users are more likely to trust and click on links that clearly describe the content they lead to.
What features are available for customizing the design of a newly created page in WebStarts? ▼
