Creating Pages

Webpage or web page is a fundamental building block of a website and represents a specific piece of content or information that is accessible on the Internet.

Creating custom pages in your online store allows you to provide important information to your customers and enhance their shopping experience.

When setting up an online store in eCommerce, you are provided with premade pages such as "About Us," "Contact Us," and legal pages. These premade pages offer a convenient starting point for essential information that most online stores typically require. With eCommerce, you have the flexibility to create and manage various pages within your online store.

Once you have created pages in eCommerce, you have the flexibility to assign them to either the footer or the main menu (nav) of your online store. This allows you to strategically place your custom pages where they can be easily accessed by your customers.
