# Home (Landing page)

This is usually the first page people see when they visit your site. First impressions matter, so we've designed this page to showcase your candidate along with CTAs to gain supporters and donors.

1\. In the dashboard, click **Website > New Page** to create a new page. You can type anything under **Name** and **Slug**, but we prefer to use "Home" or "Landing" to keep track of what the page is for.&#x20;

2\. It's important to upload a [hero image](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hero_image) and text. Make sure it's an attractive, high resolution (1440 x 800 pixels or higher) image of your candidate.

Click **Subpages > New Subpage** and be sure to name the slug "home\_hero". Otherwise, it won't be visible as a new section on the homepage.

Upload your image to **Files** from your computer. The filename can be anything you want.&#x20;

**Note:** We recommend cropping a separate version (400 x 300 pixels) to accommodate mobile devices. The filename MUST contain the word "mobile" for the theme to display it.

Add your hero text to **Content**. This text will serve as a Call to Action displayed over your hero image.

If you have designated a primary signup page under **Pages > Defaults**, a sign up form will show up over the hero image.

3\. If you have designated a primary donation page under **Pages > Defaults**, a donate section will automatically show on the homepage. The progress bar will show once you have checked "Set goal for donations" in **Donation settings** under your donation page.

4\. You can add another section to display a quote or additional information about your candidate.&#x20;

Edit your page and click **Content**. Use the WYSIWYG editor to add text and any images you've uploaded to **Files**. To add a background image behind your text (like the demo), make sure the image filename has the abbreviation "bg" in it (stands for background).&#x20;
