When you sign up for Jimdo, a short wizard guides you through a few simple steps to create your website automatically. Based on your answers, Jimdo builds a ready to use website with the right pages, tools, and design in just a few minutes.
How the Jimdo wizard works
The setup wizard asks a few questions about your business. Your answers are used to create a website tailored to your needs.
The whole process takes about two minutes.
What the wizard asks and why
Each step helps Jimdo personalise your website and dashboard.
1. What brings you to Jimdo today?
Choose what best describes your goal, for example starting a business, growing it, or creating a personal site. Jimdo uses this to tailor your setup.
2. Tell us about your business
Enter your business name, choose a category, and optionally describe what you do. This helps Jimdo create relevant content and suggestions.
Tip: Your description is very helpful. The more details you provide, the more relevant the results will be.
3. What would help launch your business?
Select up to three goals, such as getting online, attracting customers, or selling products. Jimdo prioritises features based on your choices.
4. Start with style
Choose a design style that fits your brand. Jimdo creates your website layout automatically, which you can adjust later.
What happens after the wizard
After completing all steps, Jimdo automatically creates your website.
You are taken directly to the editor with a ready made site that you can start editing immediately.
From here, you can:
- Edit text, images, and sections directly on your page
- Add or remove pages
- Set up features like bookings or your online store
Tip: You can update most of your answers later in your Business Profile. You can find it in the menu on the left side of your dashboard.
