• How do I change the URL of a page on my Website Builder?

  A page URL can only be changed if you have upgraded to our Website Builder Pro plan. The way that we set page URLs is by matching the URL to the page title you enter when you create a page. This is the default even if you have an upgraded plan (you just have the opportunity to edit it).Before you edit your page URL, consider whether this will cause any links to this page to break.If you have an upgraded plan, follow these instructions to edit your page URL: Sign in to your Dynadot account. Select "My Websites" from the left-side menu bar. Click on the "Edit Site" button next to the Website Builder you want to use. Click on the "Website Builder" option, followed by the "Pages" option on the left-hand tool bar. Click on the page whose URL you'd like to change. Enter your desired new page URL under "URL". Hit "Save" at the top to save your changes. If you have not upgraded, you can consider adding a new page and setting the title to match the URL you want. Then, simply change the page title after you save your new page if you want a different title.

• How do I change the name of a page on my website in your Website Builder?

  To change the name of a page on your website in our Website Builder, follow these steps: Sign in to your Dynadot account. Select "My Websites" from the left-side menu bar. Click on the "Edit Site" button next to the Website Builder you want to use. Click on the "Website Builder" option, followed by the "Pages" option on the left-hand tool bar. Click on the page you'd like to change. The "Navigation Title" is what appears in your navigation and the "Page Title" is what appears at the top of the browser window. If you've upgraded, you can also set a description, the URL for the page, a thumbnail image that will show if a visitor shares your page on social sites like Facebook, prevent search engines from indexing your page, and disable the page, which allows you to edit it without publishing it. Hit "Save" at the top to save your changes. Note: Changing the title of the page will not change the URL unless you have upgraded your Website Builder to unlock that feature. However, if you want your page's URL to match the name on the page, you can simply create a new page and it will set your URL to match your page name. (If you use multiple words in your title, it will put dashes between each word.) Doing this may require you to delete a page as you are limited to one free page.
