Now that you have added your widgets, you need to create another page that explains what your mailing list is about, or that offers an incentive (free report or eBook) to your subscribers, or a bit of information about who you are and what you have to offer to subscribers.

For my landing page, I created a page with a few short paragraphs that details my skills, and what subscribers get, when they sign-up for my mailing list.

Make sure you add a featured image as well, this image will show on your landing page. If it's an eBook or report, this is the perfect area for the eCover image to be placed.



Once you have created & published your new page, go to Appearance > Customize > Front Page Settings > About Section





Here you will need to click the Add a Widget button, and select the Blossom: Featured Page widget.





Once the widget is added, select the page you just created in the drop down box.




Once the page is selected, you will need to check the Show Page Full Content and Show Featured Image.

You can also select the image alignment.

Once this is set, click the Publish button to save your changes.


Here's how the About Section will appear on your landing page.




In the next lesson, we'll be creating a compelling call to action section to display near the bottom of your landing page.

If you have any questions, or wish to discuss this lesson, please comment in the discussion area below and I will answer as quickly as I am able!

Hey, how are you?

I thank you so much for this training, I need it and I really appreciate it if you willing to give me an answer.

I using the Blossom Themes Email Newletter, and the question is How to set the landing page width/ form width on the page or post? because it appear full on the footer area of my welcome page.
The otherside, I still want the sidebar appears on the right side of my page.

Kind Regard
Sylvia

Hi Maria, Thanks for this training!
I just had a very small issue.
I don't want my About me to be shown on the landing page. Would you recommend showing it or not? And for some reason, the testimonial is going above my call to action section, and my "white space" is not created between the footer and the call to action. Is there a way to change it?

Norbert, Jeremy has replied with the first things I would suggest as well. If his solution does not work, let me know and I will work with you to get it fixed.

Do you use Zoom? I have helped a few here by sharing my screen via zoom so they can see me as I go through the steps, the visual tends to help them.

Hi Maria, I did not use so far zoom, I didn't need it. In the meantime I managed to sort the issues. I had a Simple call to action, which is positioned lower on the page than the Call to action section! Thanks

Hi Maria. Since I have changed themes.The underlining in my blogs that led to a product review and the underlining in the product review that led to the product information and purchase are no longer underlined/highlighted. The links are all still in place. Your advice would be appreciated.

I have only been going for 2 months so my selection of products from the affiliate companies are a little scant. Therefore my text widgets are also a little scant. Will I just run and fix/upgrade as I go.
Thanks again.
