Funnels and Websites — StudioM Platform Guide¶
Who this guide is for: Anyone building or editing landing pages, sales funnels, or websites on the StudioM platform. Time to read: Approximately 12 minutes
What Are Funnels and Websites?¶
Your StudioM platform includes a full drag-and-drop page builder — no coding required. You can create:
- Funnels — multi-step page sequences designed to guide visitors toward a specific action (book a call, buy a product, sign up, etc.)
- Websites — full multi-page sites with navigation menus, blog pages, and all the content a traditional website needs
- Landing pages — single-page campaigns for ads, promotions, or specific offers
The same builder is used for all three. The difference is structure and purpose.
Need StudioM Support for This? If StudioM built your website or funnels during onboarding, those are already live and running. This guide is for making edits to existing pages and adding new ones yourself. For domain connections, new websites from scratch, or major structural changes, contact StudioM Support.
How to Get There¶
Navigate to: Sites (left sidebar)
From here you'll see tabs for: - Funnels — your funnel list - Websites — your website list - Blog — your blog - Forms — your forms library - Surveys — your surveys library
Understanding Funnels vs. Websites¶
| Funnel | Website | |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | Linear sequence of steps | Multi-page with navigation |
| Best for | Ad campaigns, lead gen, product sales, appointments | Full online presence, information, blogs |
| Navigation | No menu — visitors flow from page to page | Menu navigation across pages |
| Goal | Single conversion action | Multiple purposes |
The Page Builder — How It Works¶
When you open any page for editing, you enter the page builder. Here's how to get around:
- Left panel — elements library (sections, columns, text, images, buttons, forms, videos, etc.)
- Canvas (centre) — your page as it will look to visitors
- Right panel — settings for the selected element
Building Basics¶
Adding a section: 1. Click the + button on the canvas where you want to add content 2. Choose a column layout (1 column, 2 columns, etc.) 3. The section appears on the page
Adding an element: 1. Drag any element from the left panel onto a section 2. Click the element to select it 3. Configure it in the right panel (text, image, link, etc.)
Common elements: | Element | Use For | |---------|---------| | Text | Headings, body copy, bullet points | | Image | Photos, graphics, logos | | Video | Embedded YouTube, Vimeo, or uploaded video | | Button | Call-to-action links | | Form | Embed a lead capture form | | Calendar | Embed your booking calendar | | Countdown Timer | Limited-time offer urgency | | Columns | Multi-column layouts | | Divider | Visual spacing between sections |
Editing text: Double-click any text element to edit it inline.
Moving elements: Drag elements up or down within a section. Use the move handle (six dots) on the left of each element.
Mobile Preview¶
Always check the mobile view before publishing. Click the mobile icon in the top toolbar to see how the page looks on a phone. Adjust element settings for mobile separately if needed.
Editing an Existing Page¶
- Go to Sites → Funnels (or Websites)
- Click on the funnel or website name
- Click the Edit button (pencil icon) on the page you want to change
- Make your edits in the builder
- Click Save when done
- Click Publish to make changes live
Important: Saving a page doesn't automatically make it live. You must also click Publish.
Creating a New Funnel¶
- Go to Sites → Funnels
- Click Create Funnel
- Choose:
- From Template — browse ready-made funnel designs by category (lead gen, sales, webinar, etc.)
- From Scratch — start with a blank canvas
- Name your funnel
- The funnel opens with a default first page — click Edit to build the page content
- Add more steps (pages) using the + Add New Step button
Common Funnel Types¶
| Funnel Type | Pages Included |
|---|---|
| Lead Generation | Opt-in page → Thank You page |
| Book a Call | Landing page → Calendar booking page → Confirmation page |
| Sales | Sales page → Order form → Thank You / Upsell page |
| Webinar | Registration page → Confirmation page → Webinar page |
| Application | Application form → Thank You page |
Adding Your Domain to a Funnel or Website¶
Need StudioM Support for This? Connecting a custom domain (e.g., yourwebsite.com) requires DNS changes that StudioM manages. If you need a domain connected to a new funnel or page, contact StudioM Support and we'll set it up.
Funnel Page Settings¶
Click the settings gear on any funnel step to configure:
- Page Title — what appears in the browser tab and search results
- Meta Description — the description shown in search engine results
- Tracking Pixels — Facebook Pixel, Google Tag, etc. (contact StudioM Support to add pixels)
- Custom CSS — for advanced styling (contact StudioM Support for custom code)
A/B Testing¶
Test two versions of a page to see which one converts better.
- Open a funnel step
- Click + Add Variant (or the A/B test icon)
- Build your second page version
- Set the traffic split (e.g., 50/50)
- Publish both variants
- After enough traffic, review the results and select the winner
Publishing and Going Live¶
When you're ready to make a page visible: 1. Click Publish in the builder toolbar 2. Confirm the action 3. The page is now live at its URL
To temporarily take a page offline, use the Unpublish option.
Managing Pages in Your Funnel¶
From the funnel overview, you can: - Reorder steps — drag to change the sequence - Duplicate a step — copies the page to use as a starting point - Delete a step — removes the page permanently - Preview — view the page without making it live
Website Navigation and Menus¶
For websites (not funnels), you manage the navigation menu from the Website Settings:
- Open the website
- Click Settings → Navigation
- Add, remove, or reorder menu items
- Link each item to a page, external URL, or section on the page
- Save
Tracking and Analytics¶
See how your pages are performing: 1. Open a funnel or website 2. Click the Analytics tab (or Stats) 3. View: page views, unique visitors, opt-in rate, conversion rate
For deeper analytics (Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel), contact StudioM Support — pixel installation requires backend setup.
Troubleshooting¶
| Issue | What to Try |
|---|---|
| Changes not showing on the live page | Make sure you clicked Publish after saving |
| Page showing on mobile looks broken | Check the mobile view in the builder and adjust element settings |
| Form not submitting | Preview the page and test the form; if it still fails, contact StudioM Support |
| Page not found (404 error) | The page may not be published, or the URL may have changed — contact StudioM Support |
| Domain not showing the right page | Domain redirect settings need to be updated — contact StudioM Support |
Common Questions¶
Q: Can I use my own images? Yes — click any image element and use the media library to upload your own photos or select from the library.
Q: Can I add a video to my page? Yes — drag the Video element onto the canvas. You can embed from YouTube, Vimeo, or upload a video file.
Q: How do I make a page only visible to certain people (password protected)? Contact StudioM Support — page protection settings are available but require configuration.
Q: Can I duplicate an entire funnel? Yes — from the funnels list, click the three-dot menu on a funnel and select Duplicate. The entire funnel (all steps) is copied.
Q: How do I see who visited a page? Go to the funnel or website analytics. For contact-level tracking (which specific contacts visited), contacts who submit a form are tracked in their contact record.
