Page features

Page features

What a LocalFront page can include and how it can work alongside your current online presence.

Is this the same as a full website?

Yes. A page can link to social media profiles, online menus, appointment booking pages, donation pages, contact forms, email links, phone numbers, maps, and other helpful destinations.

Does LocalFront replace my business website?

Not usually. If you already have a website, LocalFront can support it with another clean local page. If you do not have a website, it can give you a simple web presence while you decide what you need next.
