NEW Business Center Overview

NEW Business Center Overview

Business Center

The Business Center is the central location for managing your business and location information. Details entered here are used throughout your website, including widgets in the Site Editor, search engine optimization, AI-generated content, and other platform features.

Many elements in the Site Editor automatically pull information from the Business Center. This allows you to update information in one place instead of editing it across multiple pages.

Business Center Overview

The Business Center is divided into two levels:

  • Business Profile: Information that applies to your entire business and brand.
  • Locations: Information that is specific to each individual location.

If your business has multiple locations, each location can have its own address, hours, contact information, FAQs, services, and social links while sharing the same overall business information and branding.

Business Profile

The Business Profile contains company-wide information used throughout your website and the Spillover.
