Website Builder

Melody Jaimon • September 4, 2025

Building a website doesn’t have to be tricky. Your Website Builder comes with a full set of guides and articles to help you sort things out quickly. These guides are grouped into sections so you always know where to look. This article explains how to get to each section and how to use the step-by-step instructions inside. Everything is written simply so you can follow along even if you’re not too techy.

The Editor Is Easier Than You Think

Here's something most people don't realise when they log into their website for the first time: you're already closer to making changes than you think. The editor is built around a simple drag-and-drop interface, and once you understand how the screen is laid out, editing feels natural, even enjoyable.


Whether you want to update your homepage headline, swap out a photo, or add a new page, it all starts with knowing your way around the editor. This guide walks you through the key areas so you can get in, make your changes, and get back to running your business

Top Navigation Bar

Use the top navigation bar to move around your site. You can use it to move between pages and between different device views. Click a page to see it, or click a device to see how the current page looks on that device.


The navigation bar includes buttons to undo or redo simple editor actions, save the current site, and preview or republish the site. Also, the top navigation bar indicates when changes to the editor have been saved.

Left Panel

The widgets and features are all located in the left panel. You can discover tools to edit practically anything on your site right here.


The left panel contains tools for making broad, sweeping changes to the whole site. For example, under the Design tab, you may change the colour scheme or button design, add new features and widgets with the Widget tab, customise your pages in the Pages tab, and make administrative changes in the Settings tab (for example, changing the site's URL).
