Before you begin rebuilding your website pages with the Website Builder, let's discuss the structure of your page.
Pages built with the Website Builder and Kajabi Pages are made up of:
Each section of your page is made up of specific Blocks.
For example, the Offer Storefront includes a Text Block and three Offer Blocks:
Kajabi provides you with preset Sections containing specific Blocks to streamline the process of designing your page.
However, each section is customizable.
And regardless of the Section you choose, you can always remove, add, and edit the Blocks within your chosen Section to create a page that best fits your brand and business.
