How Can I Build A One Page Website

How to Create a One-Page Website with Anchor Links in PhotoBiz

Overview

A one-page website displays your primary website content on a single page. Visitors use your navigation menu to jump directly to sections such as About, Portfolio, Services, or Contact instead of opening separate pages.

PhotoBiz creates these navigation options by linking each menu item to a specific block on the page. This guide explains how to build a one-page website and create anchor links that scroll visitors to the correct content.

Before You Begin

Plan the main sections you want to include on your website. Each section should have a corresponding block or group of blocks on your page.

Common one-page website sections include:

Home
About
Portfolio
Services
Testimonials
Frequently Asked Questions
Contact

STEP ONE

STEP TWO

Review the pages currently included in your Website Builder. Delete or disable any standard pages that you do not want visitors to access.

Keep the primary page you want to use for your one-page website. Disabling an additional page removes it from the live website while allowing you to keep its content in your account.

STEP THREE

Build your primary page using the blocks you want to display. Each major block can represent a section of your one-page website.

For example, you might use a Text + Image Block for your About section, an Images Block for your Portfolio section, a Services Block for your services, and a Form Block for your Contact section.

Arrange the blocks in the same order you want visitors to see them as they scroll down the page.

STEP FOUR

Rename the blocks you plan to use as anchor link destinations. Clear block names make it easier to identify the correct section when you create your navigation menu.

For example, rename the appropriate blocks About, Portfolio, Services, and Contact. The block name is used inside your Website Builder and helps you distinguish between blocks with similar content.

STEP FIVE

Select the new page button in the Website Builder and choose the option to add a new link.

Enter the name you want visitors to see in the navigation menu, such as About, Portfolio, Services, or Contact.

Choose Link to Page. Select your one-page website page, and then select the specific block that should open when a visitor clicks the navigation link.

Repeat this process for each section you want to include in your navigation menu.

FINAL STEP

Select the Save button to apply your changes to the website.

Open your live website and test each navigation menu item. When you select a menu item, the website should scroll directly to the block connected to that link.

Test the navigation on both a desktop computer and a mobile device to confirm that each link opens the correct section.

Tips for Organizing a One-Page Website

Keep the most important information near the top of the page. Visitors should quickly understand who you are, what you offer, and what action they should take next.

Use clear headings throughout the page so visitors can recognize each section as they scroll. A Title Block can help visually separate major sections.

Avoid placing too much content in a single section. Short paragraphs, carefully selected images, and clear calls to action make a one-page website easier to navigate.

Consider adding a Button Block near important content so visitors can contact you, schedule a session, view a gallery, or complete another action.

Additional Pages You May Still Need

A one-page design does not prevent you from using additional pages when they serve a specific purpose. You may still need separate pages for content such as:

Privacy Policy
Terms and Conditions
Detailed service information
Blog posts
Client Galleries
Forms
Online Store products

These pages can remain available without becoming part of the primary one-page browsing experience.

Troubleshooting Anchor Links

The navigation link opens the page but does not scroll

Edit the navigation link and confirm that you selected both the correct page and the correct block. Linking only to the page will open the top of the page instead of scrolling to a specific section.

The wrong section opens

Review the block selected for the navigation link. Renaming your blocks can make it easier to distinguish between similar blocks.

A deleted page is still appearing

Confirm that you selected the Save button after deleting or disabling the page. You may also need to refresh the live website before checking the navigation again.

A menu item is missing on mobile

Review the navigation menu on your mobile website and confirm that the link was added to the active menu. Some menu layouts display navigation items inside a mobile menu icon.
