The short answer is yes, you can make full page content on your homepage with Shopify. However, there are a few things to keep in mind when doing so. In this blog post, we will explore the pros and cons of making full page content on your Shopify homepage, as well as some tips and tricks to get the most out of it.
Can You Make a Full Page of Content on the Homepage?
It is common for Shopify themes to have a full page of content on the homepage. This can be accomplished by adding a content section to the theme. Themes with a content section typically have a layout that is one column, two columns, or three columns. One column layouts are the most common type of layout for full page content on the homepage. Two and three column layouts are less common, but can be used if desired.
Shopify themes with a content section typically have a header and footer. The header usually contains the logo and navigation, and the footer usually contains contact information and social media links. The content section is located in between the header and footer. The content section can be any length, but is typically at least 1,000 pixels tall.
The width of the content section will depend on the width of the overall theme. Themes can be either fixed-width or fluid-width. Fixed-width themes have a set width (usually 1,024 pixels or 1,280 pixels), while fluid-width themes resize themselves to fit the browser window. If you want your full page of content to appear in browsers of all sizes, you should choose a fluid-width theme.
Why Would You Want to Put Content on the Homepage?
If you want to put content on the homepage of your Shopify store, there are a few things to consider. First, what kind of content do you want to include? Do you want to write articles or blog posts, or create static pages with information about your products or services? If you’re not sure what kind of content you want to include, think about what you want your customers to see when they first visit your site.
Once you’ve decided what kind of content you want to include on your homepage, the next step is to figure out how much content you need. If you’re writing articles or blog posts, aim for around 500-750 words per piece. For static pages with product information, try to keep it under 250 words. The key is to provide enough information to give visitors an idea of what your site is about, without overwhelming them with too much text.
Finally, don’t forget to include a call-to-action (CTA) on your homepage. A CTA is a statement or button that encourages visitors to take some sort of action, such as signing up for your email list or making a purchase. Without a CTA, visitors may just browse your site without taking any action. Including a CTA will help encourage visitors to stick around and take the next step with your business.
How to Add Content to the Homepage
Assuming you want to add content above the fold on your homepage, the best way to do this is by adding a banner. Banners can be easily added through the Shopify theme editor, and you can use them to showcase new products, collections, or features on your site.
If you want to add even more content to your homepage, you can use the ‘Homepage Content’ section in the Shopify editor. This section allows you to add blocks of text, images, and even videos to your homepage. Simply click ‘Add content’, and then choose the type of content you want to add.
