The creation of a website with HubSpot is simple and intuitive. Let's look at how the HubSpot CMS Platform helps you build a website.

1. Create a home page

Within your HubSpot portal, click “Marketing” on the dashboard at the top of your screen. Then, click “website” and click "landing pages". After that, click the orange “Create landing page” button and name your page.

2. Select a template

You’ll be taken to this “Select a template” page. Scroll through your options, search page templates, or check out the Marketplace. When you’ve found a template you like, select it.

3. Edit the modules

This is your landing page. You can scroll over text boxes, images, or other modules to edit them. In the picture below, I scrolled over the “See The World” Banner Text, and when I clicked it, it allowed me to edit that text.

You can also click the “Edit modules” tool on the left side of your screen and edit from there. You can add text, images, sections, forms, and more from the “Edit modules” section.

4. Create other pages on your website

When you’re happy with your landing page and want to move on, go back to your dashboard and click “Marketing” at the top of your screen, and then “Website” and "landing pages". Here, select "Website pages" and click the orange “Create website page” button and name your page, just like your landing page. Then, you’ll be taken through a similar process of choosing a template and adding content. If you want a more in-depth tutorial, check out a quick tour of website pages.
