Pages
Open, rename, reorder, hide or delete a page. The menu on your site follows this order.
Recently deleted
Your last ten deleted pages are kept for 30 days.
Service pages
Each service has its own page, the pages that bring you local searches.
Settings
Going live on your own web address ($49 a month), your plan and receipts, messages from your form, visits, and who can edit.
Password or Coming soon
Your site is open to everyone.
Your business
Your name, legal name, the sentence about you, your addresses and holiday hours, in one place.
Verification tags
When Google, Bing, Facebook or Pinterest asks you to prove you own your website, paste the tag it gives you here. Only these tags are kept.
Cancellation policy
For appointments: your terms on their own page, linked at the bottom of every page. Leave a line empty to leave it out.
Search check
How your pages show in Google, and the words blind visitors and search engines read for your photos.
People ask ChatGPT and Google's AI before they call. Add the questions they ask about your kind of business, answered from your own pages.
AI answers
Ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity what a customer would ask, with live search, and see whether they name you and who they name instead. About a minute, once a day.
Forwarded addresses
Old addresses that send visitors to a page on your site, so old links and Google results keep working.
Ads and analytics
Paste the IDs from your accounts. Each message sent from your form counts as a lead in each of them except LinkedIn Insight and Microsoft Clarity, which count visits only. They switch on when your site goes live.
Code on every page
For a chat widget or a booking script. Pixels have their own boxes above. Paste exactly what the service gives you: TruLata checks every script before it runs on your live site, to keep your visitors safe.
Your Google listing
Sign in with the Google account that manages your business on Google Maps. Your reviews, photos, opening hours and star rating come onto your site word for word. You can change or remove any of it after.
Bring in my Google listing
Changed your hours here? Send them back, holiday hours too, so Google Maps says what your site says.

Add sign-ups to your email list
Connect Mailchimp, Klaviyo or ActiveCampaign, and each new sign-up from your Email sign-up block is added to your list.

The language tells browsers, screen readers and search engines how to read your site. Posts dated ahead go live at midnight in your time zone.
People who can edit
Invite someone by email. They sign in with that address and can change the site with you.

Download every page, photo and file as a zip that opens in any browser or goes to any web host. Or make a second site from this one, for another location or a new idea.

Help
Short answers for each part of the builder. Open the one you need.
Changing the words
Click any words on your site and type. Changes save as you go. Undo and Redo are at the top, and every change can be taken back.
Keyboard shortcuts
With a block selected: Ctrl or ⌘ + D copies it, Delete removes it (Undo brings it back). Ctrl or ⌘ + Z undoes, with Shift it redoes. Ctrl or ⌘ + Shift + P publishes your site.
Photos and files
Open Photos and drop them in, straight from your phone or computer. To swap a photo on your site, click it. Need one you do not have? Find a licensed stock photo at the bottom of Photos, for gaps only.
Adding a section
Open Add and pick a block: prices, opening hours, steps, a video, a map, online booking, downloads and more. Drag it onto the page where you want it, or click it to add it at the end.
Pages and the menu
Open Pages to open, rename, reorder or hide a page. The menu on your site follows this order. It shows up to five links when the words are short. When there are more pages than fit, it shows four and puts the rest in one panel at the end, so the bar never gets crowded.
Colors, lettering and buttons
Open Style for your colors, the lettering and the shape of your buttons, and for the header and footer.
Asking Addy
Press Addy and ask in plain words, for example "make the menu dark" or "add a section on how it works". It makes the change, and Undo takes it back.
Publishing and earlier versions
Publish is free and puts your changes on your preview address, which only people you send the link to see. Your own web address comes with Go live, $49 a month. Every publish is kept: the arrow beside Publish lists them, and any one comes back in one click.
Going live on your own address
Open Settings, then Go live. Choose a plan, $49 a month or $468 a year, and pay on our secure checkout. Add your web address, then add the one record shown where your address is managed. When it points at your site, it goes live by itself within a few minutes and we email you. The security certificate takes a few minutes more.
Selling online
Our team sets up online stores with you, so payments, shipping and tax are right from the start. Open Add, pick Online store, and tell us what you sell. A person writes back by email.
Messages from your form
When someone fills in the form on your site, their message shows in Settings, under Messages from your form, newest first, with a link to reply or call them back. You also get each one by email.
Billing and cancelling
In Settings, under Go live, Billing and receipts has your card, your receipts and your plan. Cancel there at any time: your site stays live until the end of the period you paid for, then returns to its preview address, ready to go live again.
Still stuck? and a person writes back, or email support@trulata.com.
Your tickets
Tickets you open here are listed with their number and where each one stands.
