Set up your Kajabi Site Settings properly

Before you can start creating captivating content and engaging with your audience, it's crucial to set up your site settings properly. Let's dive into the details of how to customize your site branding settings and make your site truly yours.

Setting up your Site Details:

Before building your site, it's essential to configure your site settings to reflect your brand identity and vision. Here's how you can do it:

1. How to Customize Site Brand Settings: Your site branding settings are the foundation of your online presence. They allow you to customize your logo, colors, instructor information, and page scripts. By completing these settings first, you'll streamline the customization process for the rest of your Kajabi platform.

To view and update your branding settings, Open the Settings tab from your Dashboard. Click Site Details:

Branding:

Set your default Site Logo and Favicon, which will be used across all new templates on your site. Customizing these elements ensures consistent branding throughout your platform.

Colors:

Establish your default color palette, which will be used in the color pickers of all editors on your site. Creating a custom color palette allows you to maintain brand consistency and enhance the visual appeal of your content.

Instructor:

Add your instructor's image, name, title, and bio. This information will be displayed for courses with Premier, Prosper, or Creative themes installed, helping to establish credibility and connect with your audience.

Page Scripts:

Customize the text added to the <head> section of every page on your site. This includes products, lessons, landing pages, website pages, and static pages. Use this feature to add custom javascript or tracking codes to your site.

Congratulations! You've successfully customized your brand settings, laying the foundation for a captivating online presence. Keep reading through building your homepage and optimizing it for conversions.

Build and Set your Homepage

Now that you've configured your site settings, it's time to build anticipation around your new site with a captivating homepage.

Hide your Site to Prepare for Launch or Create a "Coming Soon" Homepage

If you're still in the process of building your website and aren't ready for it to be publicly accessible, you can "unpublish" or hide your site until it's complete. To inform your users that your site is still under construction, you can display a temporary "Coming Soon!" message using a Landing Page.

Let's create a "Coming Soon" homepage to signal to your audience that your new website is on its way and provide them with the opportunity to opt-in.

As you work on setting up your site, it's crucial to consider the legal pages you need to incorporate. I recommend consulting with a legal advisor or using resources like TermsFeed.com to ensure your site's legal compliance.

Create a new landing page: Generate a Coming Soon Landing Page with Kajabi Pages.
1. Select the Website tab from your Dashboard. Open Pages.
3. Click the Landing tab. Select add + New Landing Page:
Customize your new landing page: Tailor the Streamlined Coming Soon Page template to your preferences by uploading a background image, crafting a unique message with the Text Block, and attaching a Form to grow your email list as you prepare to launch your site.
1. Upload a Background Image: Make a lasting impression by uploading a captivating background image that aligns with your brand aesthetic. Choose an image that resonates with your audience and sets the tone for your upcoming launch.
3. Craft Your Unique Message with the Text Block: Use the Text Block feature to convey your message to visitors effectively. Whether it's a teaser about your upcoming offerings or a warm welcome to your future audience, ensure your message is clear, engaging, and aligned with your brand voice.
4. Attach a Form to Grow Your Email List: Take advantage of the opportunity to grow your email list by attaching a Form to your Coming Soon Landing Page. Encourage visitors to subscribe for updates, exclusive offers, or early access to your content. This allows you to build anticipation and establish a direct line of communication with your audience.
5. Preview and Fine-Tune: Before making your page live, take the time to preview it and ensure everything looks and functions as intended. Make any necessary adjustments to optimize the visual appeal and user experience of your Coming Soon Landing Page.

By following these steps, you can customize your Coming Soon Landing Page to effectively capture the attention of your audience and generate excitement for your upcoming launch.

Once you've customized your Coming Soon Landing Page, it's time to set it as your homepage to start building anticipation among your visitors, keep reading to learn how.

Preview and Test your Site

Now that you've built your homepage, it's essential to preview it and ensure everything looks perfect before making it live. Preview your pages to get a feel for how they'll appear to your site visitors. For an authentic experience, log out of your admin account and test your page without the preview link and banner. Here's how you can do it:

From the pages dashboard: Open the Website tab from the Dashboard. Click Pages. Navigate to the side of your Page title and click the "eye" icon to preview:

Set the landing page as your homepage:

Configure your new landing page as your homepage through the Site Details settings. When visitors navigate to your site, they'll see your captivating Coming Soon page, signaling that exciting developments are underway. To set your new homepage:

Open Settings from your Dashboard.
Select Site Details.
Scroll down to the Homepage section and change the selection to Show a Landing Page.
Select your "Coming Soon!" Landing Page and click Save:
