Site templates are guides you can use to pre-fill information on forms when you add sites. You can add as many site templates as necessary to meet your business needs.

To add a site template:

1. Start the site template wizard:
   1. On the top navigation bar, click sites.
   2. Click the templates tab.
   3. On the site templates page, click Add Site Template.
2. General information

   On the general information form, provide the following information, then click Next.

   • Template Name. Required. The name you want to give to the template. For example, if the template has high-end resources and services, you might call it Gold. If it has low-end resources and services, you might call it Bronze. Names must be between 1 and 128 characters in length.
   • Description. Optional. A description of the template. This is for your information only; sites added with this template see this name on their account information page. Up to 512 characters, including special characters, are allowed.
3. Select Services

   Choose the Windows Web Hosting service options you want to make available to sites created with this template, then click Next. For more information about service options, see the service-specific Help.

   

   Service-specific Help provides information about Windows Web Hosting or DNS service components.

   The General Help system, which you are viewing now, provides links to service-specific Help where appropriate. If there are no service-related links in a General Help topic, it might be that no services are available, or Help on the topic is unavailable for installed services.

   To access service-specific Help any time, click the links on the Help navigation panel in the lower left of the control panel.
