How to Add a Featured Image

You can add a Featured Image from within the Site Editor for your homepage or any other page.

  1. Open your Dashboard and navigate to Site Editor.

  2. Select the page you want to update from the page dropdown at the top (for example, Home).

  3. In the left panel, click Page Settings.

  4. Locate the Featured Image section on the right-hand panel.

  5. Upload your image or select one from your existing media.

  6. Click Save to apply your changes.
    ​

Once saved, this image will be used as the preview image for search results and social sharing.


Adding Featured Images to Other Pages

  • The same process applies to all standard pages, not just the homepage.

  • Custom pages also support Featured Images, allowing you to control how each page appears when shared externally.


Optimizing Social Sharing with Meta Fields

On the same page, you can further optimize how your content appears on social media by completing the following fields:

Meta Name

  • Example: Your Local Guide

  • This is the title shown when your page is shared on social platforms.

Meta Description

  • Example: Your Local Guide

  • This description helps search engines and social platforms understand what your page is about and provides context to viewers.
    ​
    ​


Best Practices

  • Use a high-resolution image that represents the page content clearly.

  • Avoid adding text that may be cropped on different platforms.

  • Keep Meta Names concise and Meta Descriptions descriptive but short.

Following these steps ensures your pages look polished, professional, and optimized for discovery and sharing.
