Choose a Content type.

Compare repeated content, name the shared information, and choose a Content type that fits the entries you will maintain.

Follow the steps.

Use your own accurate details and check the result as you go. You can return to the relevant Website editor to make corrections.

  1. Compare real examples

    List the information that repeats across the articles, projects, or services you plan to maintain.

  2. Name the Content type

    Give the content type a clear name and URL key that writers can recognize.

  3. Check presentation support

    Confirm a compatible Page or Theme can present the Content type before creating a large collection.

Illustrative example

What a useful result looks like

The result
One Content type that can hold the shared information for each project.
What to check
Compare the fields with both a short project and a longer story before adding all your content.

Adapt the example to your Website and review the result before moving to the next task.

Define the shared fields

A Content type should describe information every entry needs. Keep one-off Page copy in a Page when it does not repeat.

Choose the simplest owner

Use Content Studio for repeated entries; use a Page for focused destinations such as About or Contact.

Before you continue

A Content type stores structured content. It does not create a Page presentation, publish an App-owned workflow, or replace the Page Builder.

Make the next change with a clear result in mind.
