How to Make a Classic Consulting Company Website

To begin with, if you're working with the Classic Consulting template you want to replace the demo text with real texts of your own. To do that you simply click on the text and choose edit. You can paste text in by using the simple ctrl + V command. To add a new text box visit the Text menu on the left hand side and choose between a title text box and a paragraph text box. The title text boxes will be read as headers and their texts will gain more significance in terms of how the search engine perceives them. In addition, you can choose between a simple text box and a scrollbar text box. Scroll bar texts boxes will allow you to enter more text in less space.

Picture and images in general are a very important aspect of web design. Notice that in many different fields that incorporate design, a visual interface is gaining more and more importance. Consider billboard signs, commercials, fliers and that sort of thing. Adding images to a page bump up the web design's aesthetic value and offers a sort of spacing between one text to the next. To replace the images currently laid out in the template click on the picture and choose "change photo". You can either choose from the rich Wix galleries or upload your own pictures from your computer or by using an existing URL if you have one.

The navigation of the website is critically important. Make sure each of your website's pages is connected and can be reached easily. Your website's visitors will not work hard to find what they want on your website. They'll simply look further to another website if they don't find what they want at your site. The Classic Consulting template already has a menu which is connected to the mini-pages on which most of the content is laid out. As you add more mini-pages new buttons will automatically appear. You simply need to click on the menu and adjust the spacing between the buttons to make sure they're laid out properly and chance the name of the page so it makes sense.

Behaviors are a great way of adding creativity to your website. A behavior can mean a link to another page or another website, or it can mean that an object on your page responds to certain actions. For example, if you roll over a picture with the mouse, the picture will blur. This is done by clicking on the picture and choosing the behaviors command. Go to the second page of the behaviors menu and choose the 'Blur on Roll' command. Now, every time you roll over the picture, the picture will blur. You can control the settings of this blur effect and behavior. To add links you simply click on any object and choose the type of link you want to add to it. This is also true of bits of texts. Mark the text you want to transform in to a link and click the 'Link' command to add a URL.

Mini-pages are a great feature offered by the Wix website builder. They make browsing through your website faster while leaving areas of static content that allow you to create a hierarchy between the different types of content. You can adjust the size of the mini page by simply dragging the ends of the mini-page. Using mini-pages you can also control the type of transitions between the pages, increasing the dynamism of the web design. The greatest different between the mini-pages and the galleries is that galleries allow you only to add images while mini-pages let you place anything you want as well as multiple objects, just like a regular page. You can also have a mini-page within a mini-page. Just make sure everything is properly connected with legible and simple navigation.

Using widgets you can take your website up a few notches in terms of sophistication. The Classic Consulting template uses the emap widget which will pinpoint your company's location on the map once you enter your address. You can also use a contact form to make it easier for visitors to contact you and the comments box to display rave reviews about your services. Other widgets include the music player which enhances the vibe of your website, an RSS feed, which is a very useful way to keep your website information fresh and keep your customers updated and even an ecommerce shop. Notice that the eCommerce shop can only be activated once you've upgraded to premium. The rest can be used in your free website.
