Step 1: Create Your Website
Log into GoHighLevel.
Go to Sites then Websites.
Click New Website.
You can start with:
- A blank page
or
- A template
If you are new, pick a simple one page template. You can change everything later.
Step 2: Build Your Hero Section
This is the top of your site. It is the most important part.
It needs three things:
- A clear headline
- A short sub headline
- A call to action button
Example:
Headline
“I help coaches book more calls with simple funnels”
Sub headline
“No tech stress. Just a clean page that turns visitors into leads.”
Button
“Book a Free Call”
In GoHighLevel:
- Click the text to edit it
- Click the button
- Link it to your booking calendar
Step 3: Add Your About Section
Scroll down and add a new section.
This is where you explain who you help and why you do it.
Write 2 or 3 short paragraphs:
- Who you are
- Who you help
- What problem you solve
Keep it real and simple.
People connect with stories more than hype.
Step 4: Add Your Services or Offers
Add another section below.
Create 3 to 4 boxes.
Each box should have:
- A title
- One short description
Example:
- Funnel setup
- Email follow up
- Lead capture pages
- Coaching calls
You want visitors to quickly see how you help them.
Step 5: Add Testimonials
Social proof makes people trust you.
Add a testimonials block or slider.
You can:
- Paste text reviews
- Add client photos
- Or both
Even 2 or 3 short reviews can double conversions.
Step 6: Add a Form or Booking Section
This is how people become leads.
You can add:
- A booking calendar
or
- A form
To do this:
- Drag in a form element
- Or drag in a calendar element
Pick a form you already made or create a new one.
Keep forms simple:
- First name
More fields lower sign ups.
Step 7: Connect it to Automation
This is where GoHighLevel shines.
When someone fills out your form:
- They become a contact in your CRM
- You can trigger emails and texts
Create a simple workflow:
- Trigger: Form submitted
- Action: Send welcome email
- Action: Send reminder to book a call
Now every lead gets followed up automatically.
Step 8: Make it Mobile Friendly
Click the mobile icon at the top.
Check:
- Text size
- Button spacing
- Section order
Most visitors will come from their phone. This step matters.
Step 9: Publish Your Site
Click Publish.
Your one page website is now live.
You can connect a custom domain later or use the GoHighLevel link for now.
