Website Builder (for WordPress) - How to Add and Manage Sections in Website Builder

Sections in a website builder are pivotal in creating a smooth, organized user experience. They make content management a breeze and boost your site's visual appeal and functionality. With sections, you can craft a site that's not just easy to navigate but also ranks well on search engines, thanks to improved structure. They're essential for responsive design, too, ensuring your site looks flawless on any device.

In your Bluehost Website Builder, most of your website will be built in sections. You can add an element for each section and then choose a template to create your content. If you want to change the look or layout of a section you have already added, you can change to a different template, re-order it, or use design tools to customize your sections at any time.
