Working With XSitePro FAQs:
It's really easy to add new content with XSitePro. Whether you're wanting to add new web pages, or elements within those pages, the process takes just a couple of minutes with the intuitive tools in XSitePro. There are several ways of adding pages:
And for adding content within your pages you have a huge selection of options, available within the designer window and from the powerful right-click menu. Features you can add include:
There's really no limit to the content you can add to your XSitePro web pages - as much as you can imagine and more! Can I Have Lots of Different Page-types (Like Sales Pages, Adsense Pages, etc.)? XSitePro enables you to create limitless types of page layout and style - that's the beauty of using a full-powered web design application like XSitePro as opposed to inflexible template-only site design applications. With full control over the page design, structure and content you can design pretty much anything from a simple sales-letter to a thousand-page corporate site. The choice is really down to you. Whatever your objectives on-line, you can be sure XSitePro will be able to help you achieve
them, over and over again. If I Want to Use a Header That I Designed Can I Load This Into the Software? Yes - no problem! XSitePro's powerful Page Layout design tab allows you to fully-customize your global site design to your heart's content. Not only can you add your own header graphics into the layout design, you can also completely customize the different panels (sections of the page design), changing their dimensions and colors, inserting text/images, even adding global site elements such as site-search or name-grab forms. And once you're happy with the overall effect, the great news is that all of the web pages you add will inherit that quality design by default - making the process of adding consistently high quality pages to your site a snap! I Have an Existing Website but it Was Not Created By Using XSitePro - is it Possible to Use XSitePro to Edit it? XSitePro can import "clean" (i.e. relatively simple) HTML pages that were generated in other web site design applications. This said, it is usually far better to start over with a fresh XSitePro site, adding pages anew, than import - the reason for this is that then you can be sure your pages are properly formatted, and do not contain any coding or layout issues, inherited from another program's page content. And creating page content with XSitePro is very straightforward and quick, too, so you'll more than likely be able to just copy and paste your text elements from your old pages into your XSitePro pages in no time at all. And, once you have that brand new XSitePro site, editing the site in future is going to be
easier than ever before - page edits take seconds and updating your site's content becomes a
no-brainer. Is the SEO within XSitePro Easy to Use? Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is one of XSitePro's strengths, and it's why you'll find plenty of people in the XSitePro forums posting delighted messages like: "#2 Ranking in Google in three days!" and, "Top-position for my keywords in two days!"... XSitePro helps you create search-engine friendly pages in a number of ways, including:
Even if you only complete the recommended steps, suggested by the Page Analysis tool in XSitePro you'll already be ahead of the vast majority of web site builders out there!
Can I Convert My Version 1 Websites Into Version 2 Websites? Yes you can. To trigger the version one site conversion process, go to the XSitePro 2 Program Folder, form your Start Menu, in Windows, and you'll find a tool in the folder called "XSPVersion1Convertor" Run that program, and XSitePro 2 will bring all of your existing version one websites into XSitePro version two for you, automatically. Just for your piece of mind, all of your version one web sites will also remain fully accessible to your installation of XSitePro version 1 - so there is no risk of you losing anything at all in the conversion process. This makes the whole process of upgrading from version one to the powerful XSitePro v2
software a completely painless process. And with the enhanced and improved version two software now at your
disposal, you can set about adding all manner of great features and functionality, to improve your version one
sites. Does the Software Come with the PSD Files of the Templates it Has? No, but don't worry! You can edit all of the template design components if you want... If you'd like to customize the templates that ship as standard with XSitePro 2 you can, by following the simple guide below: STEP 1: Go to the Other tab, in your copy of XSitePro STEP 2: Click the "Resources Manager" button STEP 3: Select all of the image files you'd like to customize by holding your CTRL key (on your keyboard) while clicking on the image file-names, in the resources list. STEP 4: With the images selected, right-click with your mouse on ONE of those selected images, in the list. STEP 5: From the menu that appears, click the "copy locally" option. STEP 6: Save a copy of the images to your hard-drive. STEP 7: Open and edit any (or all) of the graphic files you saved locally, making sure not to alter the file-name of the image during the process. STEP 8: With the images edited, back in the resources manager, click the "Add" button STEP 9: Browse to and select all of the (now modified) images from your hard drive STEP 10: Make sure you save the images to the "Images" folder STEP 11: When prompted, confirm that you would like to overwrite the existing files. STEP 12: When finished, close the Resources Manager window and view the "Page Layout" tab to see your changes applied. In this way, you can actually create new versions of the existing templates, or make simple
changes, as you require. I Am a Website Developer - One of My Customers Wants Me to Build a Website, and He Would Like to Maintain it with XSitePro - How Would This Work? All you need to do is make sure your client has their own copy of XSitePro (so that they can edit the web site files as they require). Once you have established this, the process of collaborating over web site designs is a pleasantly simple one with this powerful software. Simply create the site for your client, then export the full site (including Publishing details) using the Export tool, in XSitePro. This will generate a single XSE file that you can simply e-mail to your client. Once received, your client may then import the web site into their XSitePro project folder and edit to their heart's content. This is a really elegant solution to collaboration, and empowers your client too, as they doubtless will save time and money making minor edits themselves, a great benefit you can offer as part of your service. Can XSitePro Be Used As a Landing Page Which Can Forward Viewers to My Other Web page? Yes. XSitePro can be used to create any kind of web page, be it a landing page, informational newsletter, splash page, opt-in page, product information page, article page, or just about any other type of page you can think of! With XSitePro, pretty much the only limitation for page types that you can create is
your own imagination... so be creative! Can I Create More Than One Website? Yes. XSitePro allows you to create limitless numbers of web sites. This is great for a number of reasons - firstly, it takes the pressure off getting it right first time... So if you're not happy with your site for any reason, you don't need to worry - you can just start over. It's also great news, secondly, because these days very few people operate only one site, in isolation. Search engines are ultra-targeted in the sites to which they will ultimately send traffic, and so it really pays to consider operating a number of what are called "feeder sites" that feed into your 'main' site. In this way, you can compete more effectively for niche traffic (less competition, of course) and re-route that traffic to your main, more general site. It's a tactic that has been proven for years now, and one to which (since you only pay once with our software) XSitePro 2 is ideally suited. Can I Edit The Raw HTML? Yes you can. XSitePro features a full HTML editor within the Web Pages tab, so if you're so inclined you can roll up your sleeves and get stuck into the HTML code as much as you want! Not only does XSitePro feature an HTML editor, the editor itself neatly 'color codes' the HTML within the editor, and lays out the code in an organized fashion, to make editing the HTML a pleasure for those who are happy doing so... Can I Import My Existing Sites? Yes, if you are an XSitePro version 1 user, and would like to import your version one sites, one-by-one into XSitePro 2, that's no problem at all. To go about this, simply export your site from XSitePro version 1 using the "Export" button, in the Project management Screen. Then, having exported the site to an XSE file, you can import the site into your copy of XSitePro 2. Simple as that!
