It is the page people reach when they type your domain name without anything after it. Its job is to quickly explain who you are, what you offer and where to go next. It is like the lobby of a building: welcoming, clear and pointing people toward the right rooms.<\/p><h2>Why It Matters for Your Business<\/h2><p>Many visitors start on the homepage, so it shapes their impression of your business. A contractor&#8217;s homepage might show a strong headline about the service area, a few main services with photos, short customer reviews and a clear way to request an estimate. Each section should lead somewhere useful.<\/p><h2>Good to Know<\/h2><p>A common mistake is trying to say everything on the homepage. Give a short overview of each main topic and link to a dedicated page for details. This keeps the homepage easy to scan and gives search engines focused pages to rank. It also helps returning visitors.<\/p><div class=\"sfl-box\"><h4>Related terms<\/h4><div class=\"sfl-rel\"><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/hero-section\/\">Hero section<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/navigation-menu\/\">Navigation menu<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/above-the-fold\/\">Above the fold<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/landing-page\/\">Landing page<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/call-to-action\/\">Call to action<\/a><\/div><\/div><nav class=\"sfl-pn\"><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/hero-section\/\"><small>\u2190 Previous<\/small><b>Hero section<\/b><\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/html\/\" class=\"r\"><small>Next \u2192<\/small><b>HTML<\/b><\/a><\/nav><\/article><aside class=\"sfl-aside\"><div class=\"sfl-box sfl-box-o\"><h4>Need this done right?<\/h4><p>Fixed-price websites from $800, built and launched for you in as little as 5 days.<\/p><a class=\"sfl-btn sfl-btn-w\" href=\"\/fr\/web-design-development\/#pricing\">See website packages<\/a><\/div><div class=\"sfl-box\"><h4>More in Design &amp; User Experience<\/h4><div class=\"sfl-chips\"><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/web-design\/\">Web design<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/user-experience\/\">User experience<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/user-interface\/\">User interface<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/wireframe\/\">Wireframe<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/mockup\/\">Mockup<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/prototype\/\">Prototype<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/sitemap\/\">Sitemap<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/information-architecture\/\">Information architecture<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/aside><\/div><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"DefinedTerm\",\"name\":\"Homepage\",\"description\":\"A homepage is the main page of a website, usually reached at the bare domain, that introduces the business and directs visitors to key sections.\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/sitefitters.com\/learn\/glossary\/homepage\/\",\"inDefinedTermSet\":{\"@type\":\"DefinedTermSet\",\"name\":\"Business Website 101 Glossary\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/sitefitters.com\/learn\/glossary\/\"}}<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn \/ Glossary \/ Design &amp; User Experience Homepage Explained.
