How can I change the URL of my entrance page in Webflow from website.com/resources to website.com/blog?

To change the URL of your entrance page in Webflow from website.com/resources to website.com/blog, you can follow these steps:

1. Access your Webflow project: Log in to your Webflow account and open the project where you want to make the URL change.

2. Navigate to the Pages panel: From the left-hand sidebar, click on the "Pages" tab.

3. Locate the entrance page: In the Pages panel, find the entrance page that currently has the URL website.com/resources. This will typically be the homepage or landing page of your website.

4. Update the page settings: Select the entrance page and click on the settings icon (gear icon) that appears next to its name.

5. Modify the slug: Within the page settings, you will see a field labeled "Slug." This field determines the end part of the URL for that page. Update the slug from "resources" to "blog".

6. Save and publish: After modifying the slug, click on the "Save" button to save your changes. Then, publish your website for the updated URL to take effect.

Now, when visitors access your website, the entrance page URL will be website.com/blog instead of website.com/resources. Remember to update any internal links or references within your website to reflect the new URL structure.

Additional Notes:

• It's essential to make sure that the new URL does not conflict with any existing pages or URL patterns in your Webflow project. Using unique and descriptive slugs is recommended.
• Changing the URL of the entrance page might affect your website's SEO. It's crucial to set up proper redirects from the old URL (website.com/resources) to the new one (website.com/blog) to preserve any SEO value and avoid broken links.
• You can set up 301 redirects in your Webflow project through the "Hosting" settings. This will ensure that visitors and search engines are automatically redirected from the old URL to the new URL.

Example Redirect Setup:

1. Go to your Webflow project's Dashboard and select the "Hosting" tab.
2. Under the "Hosting" section, click on "Redirects."
3. Add a new redirect rule with the following settings:

• Incoming URL path: /resources
• Choose "Redirect to internal page" and select your new entrance page (e.g., /blog)
• Set the redirect type to "301 - Permanent Redirect"

1. Save the redirect, publish your website, and test that the old URL redirects to the new URL successfully.

These steps should help you change the URL of your entrance page in Webflow from website.com/resources to website.com/blog. If you encounter any issues or need further assistance, it's recommended to refer to Webflow's extensive documentation or reach out to their support team for guidance.
