Adding or Updating Your Site Branding Information

You can brand your site by adding firm-specific information and images. Adding your firm logo or a marketing tag line to your site can help align your website with other marketing materials your firm may use.

Important: Depending on the site style you selected, some branding updates may cause unexpected layout or display issues. For this reason, we recommend that you always preview your site branding updates before publishing your site. If you are making many updates, we recommend previewing after each update so you can more easily identify the source of any display problems.

To add or update the branding information to your site, do the following:

1. Log in to your Site Builder account.
2. Click Firm Info > Site Branding on the toolbar.
   

The firm branding information currently applied to your website displays on the Firm Info - Site Branding page.

Note: If you want to delete the logo or header image from your site and do not plan to replace them with different images, you can delete them on this page by clicking the delete button beside the image.

3. Click Update Firm Information.
4. Add or edit text for each of the following:
• Site Title. By default, your firm name is used as the site title. The site title is typically the most prominent text on a Web page. It displays on each page of your website. The site title is also used as the browser window title and browser tab title. However, you can change these titles on the Edit Pages page if needed.

Tip: If your firm's logo or header image includes your firm name, you may not need to also include it in the site title.

• Subtitle. The subtitle appears beneath or to the side of the site title, depending on the site style. If your firm has a marketing tag line, you can use it as a subtitle to reinforce your message.
• Footer Message. The footer message is usually the least prominent text on a page. It is often used for a copyright statement, or other information that is necessary, but not critical to your client's use of your website.
5. Change the formatting for the site title, subtitle, and footer as needed. For your convenience, a preview of the text displays in the box beneath each item. Tell me about the formatting tools.

Property	Description
Font Family	Select a font family from the drop-down list. The fonts are limited to those that are highly compatible with most Web browsers and conventions. Tip: For best results, limit yourself to no more than two fonts: one for headers, and one for body text.
Font Size	Select a font size from the drop-down list.
Font Color	Do one of the following to change the text colour: Enter the hexadecimal code for the colour in the text box. Click the Palette button to open the colour chooser. If needed, select a different colour palette from the drop-down list. Then, click the palette colour that you want to use for the text.
Font Characteristics	Select the box for each font characteristic you want to apply: Select B to bold-face the text. Select U to underscore the text. Tip: Underlined text typically indicates a hyperlink. Avoid using the underline, except when you are creating a hyperlink. Select I to italicize the text.

Tip: A preview box displays beneath the style selection options for each element. Use the preview boxes to verify that the updated styles display as expected before finalizing your site. If you do not see a preview for an item, the text colour may be set to match the preview box background colour. You can change the colour temporarily while you make other formatting changes. Then, change it back to the original colour when you are ready to publish your edits.
