Add a promotional banner to my website
Sometimes you have breaking news that needs to grab customers’ attention as soon as they land on your site. Use a promotional banner (a colorful ribbon at the top of your site) to direct customers to the latest news and promotions your business has to offer.
Note: You can also use a pop-up box for this purpose, especially if you want to add an image.
- Go to your GoDaddy product page.
- Scroll down, expand Websites + Marketing and select Manage next to your website.
- Select Edit Website or Edit Site to open your website builder.
- Select your header section (the first section on your home page).
- In the editing panel on the right, select Promotional Banner.
- Switch on the Show promotion toggle.
- Edit your custom message and select a seasonal decoration, or select None to show a plain banner. You can also choose to animate the seasonal decoration by switching on the Animated Decoration toggle.
- If you choose to add a link, switch on the Add Link toggle, and then you can link to:
- A page and section within your website
- A separate URL, such as a social media page
- A phone number
- An email
- A product category (for example, Newest), if you're using the Commerce plan (compare plans and pricing)
- When you're finished, select Done.
