PLEASE NOTE: You MUST firstly activate your website(s) with default settings before editing your FREE Website(s) or changing the settings to your existing website.
HOW TO EDIT OR FURTHER CUSTOMISE YOUR FREE WEBSITE
One of the major benefits of subscribing to a domain name with Suburban Domains® is that you may edit and customise your FREE website as many times as you need to over your subscription period, for FREE. Another benefit is that we make it a simple process for anyone to do. Once you log in to your account, there are instructions and notes to guide you as you edit your FREE website, and if you need assistance, please phone our friendly staff on 1300 628 468 or send us an email at enquiries@suburbandomains.com.au.
A few things to note before we continue:
| |
When you activate your website for the first time, it will contain all the default settings for your chosen industry. |
| |
You may edit/customise six pages of your website. The 'Tell a Friend' page is not editable and the 'Tips and Links' page is managed by Suburban Domains®. The content of this page is predominantly for information purposes and is made available to enrich the experience of the Internet visitor. |
| |
You may edit some or all of your default settings. The choice is entirely up to you. |
You can edit each page with confidence knowing that you can 'Save' then 'Preview' any changes. Once you are completely happy with the look of your customised page, only then would you 'Activate' it and go live on the internet. At any point in time you also have the option to revert back to the default settings.
To edit your website AFTER it has been activated:
| 1. |
Login to your account using your email and password. |
