Websites + Marketing Help

Add a link to a different section of my website

Linking to a specific section on your site is a useful strategy if you want to give visitors quick access to important content or functionality, such as your latest specials, a contact form or frequently asked questions (FAQ).

You can add these links in 2 ways. Firstly, by linking a photo or linking some text, and secondly, in the header navigation or the footer of your site, where they appear on every page.

To add a link to your site's footer or main navigation:

  1. Go to your GoDaddy product page.
  2. Scroll down, expand Websites + Marketing and select Manage next to your site.
  3. Select Edit Website or Edit Site.
  4. Add the link.
    • If you're making the updates to your website in a browser, in the right panel, select Add a new link plus sign icon Add.

    • In the mobile app, select Pages and then Add.
  5. Select New Section Link.
  6. In the Link Title box, add the text that will appear for the link. Use a short, descriptive phrase that gives visitors an indication of what to expect if they click the link, e.g. Contact us. You're limited to 25 characters, including spaces.
  7. In the Page box, select the page where the section you want to link to exists.
  8. In the Section box, select the section you want to link to.
  9. Switch on the toggles to add the link to your site's main navigation or footer.
    • Show in Navigation makes it appear in the main, header navigation.
    • Footer displays a link to the page at the bottom of each page on your website.
  10. Select Create Link. Your changes are saved automatically.
  11. Use Preview to see the results, and when you're ready to make the changes public, select Publish.
