list of templates. As you scroll, make sure you look for a free template.

8. Hover your cursor over the free template that you like, and click “Edit.”

This will bring up the website editor.

Note:

We have provided you with instructions below on how to edit your

template. However, Wix offers fantastic assistance, and we recommend

visiting their support page—click “Support” at the top right of the home page

to reach it.

Now, it’s time to start editing your template. Take the following steps:

Your page may look something like this:

www.getwsodo.com

2. Double-click any element that you want to change—for example, the

title of the page. When the element is highlighted, enter the title that you

want, instead. It will look something like this:

www.getwsodo.com

3. Change the font size, alignment, the lettering (bold, italic), etc., using the

pop-up menu. When you are happy with the title, click somewhere else

on the screen, and your title will look exactly the way you want it to.

4. Double-click on any backgrounds or images that you want to

change—this brings up a box that looks like this:

www.getwsodo.com

5. Choose a replacement image from:

a. Your own computer

b. Your social media sites

c. Free images from Wix

d. Bigstock images (these you have to pay for)

6. Select an image, then click “Apply.”

7. Remember, double-click any element of the page that you want to

change, then customize the template to match your own brand and

product.

Click any element that you

don’t want on your page

(for example, an

opt-in form), and press “delete” on your keyboard to get rid of it.

The look of your website is extremely important, but people will want to know

more about your brand. Take these steps to add that important information to
