Tips and Best Practices
- Main categories can only have two levels of sub-categories. So "Clothing > Women > Shoes" would work but "Clothing > Women > Shoes > Sandals" would not.
- While not required, adding keywords in the Title and Description fields helps customers find you through search engines like Google.
- To see how it looks to customers, select Website in the dashboard for Websites + Marketing or View Store in Online Store Premium.
- Use the pencil icon to change and edit existing categories.
- Use the trash icon to delete catogires you no longer want.
- InstantPage users cannot create more than three categories.
