Steps I use to Configure My Beehiiv Homepage:

It all begins with making sure you make your first post. Else, you will just see your subscribe form and no other web elements.

Steps to Configure Your Beehiiv Homepage:

Steps to Configure My Beehiiv Homepage:

  1. Log In to Your Beehiiv Account:

    • Go to Beehiiv and log in to your account.

  2. Access Site Settings:

    • Navigate to the dashboard where you can manage your publication settings.

  3. Customize Your Homepage:

    • Go to the "Settings" or "Design" section where you can customize the homepage.

    • Ensure that your homepage is set to display your latest articles, featured posts, or other content instead of a subscription prompt.

  4. Remove or Adjust Subscription Prompts:

    • If there are automatic subscription prompts, look for options to disable or minimize them.

    • You can often find these settings under "Subscription Settings" or similar options.

  5. Configure Navigation Menu:

    • Go to the "Navigation" or "Menu" settings.

    • Ensure that your primary navigation menu does not prominently feature the subscription link.

    • You can still have a subtle subscription option in the footer or a less prominent place.

  6. Add Content to Your Homepage:

    • Ensure your homepage has engaging content to keep visitors interested.

    • Add sections like featured articles, popular posts, or an "About Us" section to give visitors a reason to stay and explore.

  7. Preview Your Changes:

    • Before finalizing, preview your homepage to ensure visitors see the content you want them to see.

Example Steps to Ensure Visitors See Your Content:

  1. Homepage Settings:

    • In the Beehiiv dashboard, navigate to "Design" or "Homepage Settings".

    • Choose to display latest posts, featured articles, or custom sections.

  2. Navigation Menu:

    • Go to the "Navigation" settings.

    • Add links to other important pages such as "About", "Articles", "Contact", but avoid making "Subscribe" the main focus.

  3. Subscription Options:

    • In the "Subscription Settings", adjust the placement of subscription forms. Place them in the footer or as a sidebar widget rather than as a main landing page.

  4. Content Sections:

    • Use the "Add Section" feature to create various sections on your homepage. This can include:

      • Featured Articles: Highlight your best or most recent articles.

      • About Us: A brief introduction to who you are and what your newsletter is about.

      • Popular Posts: List of posts that have received the most engagement.

      • Testimonials: Quotes from readers or influencers who appreciate your content.

  5. Save and Preview:

    • Save your changes and preview your homepage to ensure it looks as you desire and that visitors are not immediately prompted to subscribe.
