Example of a Bronze Member zpage Layout
For a Bronze zpage, you get 5 distinct sections plus end of page Terms & Conditions text box to place your business terms in. The Bronze Membership is designed to be the quickest and cheapest means for you to get your own webpage with your own unique URL, so we've made it as customisable as we possibly can for the small amount of money being charged for it. If you want to deviate from the standard design, we can do that for you, but we respectfully ask that you upgrade to Silver Membership as advanced customisation is not available in Bronze.
We've set out below what the 5 sections of your zpage will look like and what options there are. We've used a pink background with blue text for our comments and headers, so you can see that these will not form part of your zpage.
Section 1: Your Header/Welcome
Option 1:
Image ONLY Based. This is suitable if you have an image where there is enough blank space to place text so that it is still legible. Our designers will place your text in the best place(s) so it looks good and is readable on desktops, tablets and mobile phones. We will generally use the Arial font for most of your text, but we can use a different one to suit your theme in Section 1 if desired.
Under this option, you get to put:
i) your logo (if you don't have one, we can put a free image from our stock),
ii) your business, personal, project or trading name, e.g. "Carlo's Cakes",
iii) a strap line like the one below, advertising what you do,
iv) a social media bar with all your links (5 max).

Whatever the Occasion, we supply the Finest Cakes!

Option 2:
Image & Colour strip combined. This is suitable if you have a very busy image where there is not enough blank space to place the text and keep it still legible, or if you just prefer to have your text on plain background. Our designers will place your logo and social media bar in the best place to suit your text and image.

Section 2: Your Introduction
This is where you tell your zpage visitors who you are and what you do. Keep this reasonably brief and to the point. Research tells us you only get a few seconds to interest your visitor or they will click the back button and go somewhere else. You can also have up to 2 images here to place underneath your intro text.
Tell your visitors what you do in this section. Keep it brief, upbeat and punchy! Be positive!
You don't just offer "a service", you offer "a great service"; you don't just offer "French cuisine", you offer "traditional, delicious, French cuisine - all freshly imported directly from France", et cetera.
Choose 2 images that fit with what you are saying and show your visitor what your page is about. The amount of text in the example below is about right for this Section. Don't go mad, don't bore - keep it simple!
Bonjour et Bienvenue!
Hello & Welcome to Lucille's Charcuterie!
I have been importing and selling the very best in traditional French cured meats, cheeses and other delicacies since 2005.
As a regular stallholder at Artisan Food Markets the length and breadth of Shropshire, Cheshire and Staffordshire, I am well-known for the quality of my charcuterie.
I stock what the supermarkets don't! You can be sure to find things at my stall that you haven't seen anywhere else... at least, not outside of Bordeaux that is!
Section 3: Your Main Content
This section can be sub-divided into up to 5 sub-sections labelled by us as 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d & 3e. For Bronze membership 3a is included, Silver also includes 3b & 3c, Gold additionally can have 3d & 3e if wanted. To see what these extra sub-sections are, please look at Section 3 on the Silver and Gold example pages.
For many people who have simple business models and don't want to keep adding to their page through regular bulletins or display a lot of images, we think you will find section 3a on it's own quite sufficient, but by all means take a look at what Silver and Gold offer before deciding. You can in any case switch between membership levels at any time if you do want to add something extra, so starting off with Bronze can be the easiest option anyway.
For all membership classes, Section 3 of your zpage is where you place your main content. This can be much longer than Section 2 because if your zpage visitor gets this far down your page then they are clearly interested in what you are offering.
So, this is where you will get to sell your product or service, or where you will place your main creative text if you are building a creative (e.g. authors, poets, artists, musicians etc.) zpage. You can place up to 2000 words of text here, so you have ample space to tell the world why they need you! You can also have up to 4 images in this Section which our designers will place in the most appropriate layout.
If you personally "are your business", i.e. you do everything and it's you that will do the job, e.g. a hedge cutter or gardener, then it's often a good idea to say something about yourself and put a picture. Research shows people are far more likely to contact you if you appear to be a friendly and approachable person.
In this section you might also want to expand on what you've said in Section 2 and give examples of work you've done.
This is a good place to explain your fee structure, turnaround times, availability et cetera.
You might also want to add any customer testimonials you have received (In Bronze these just go as text - in Silver section 3c they can be placed in a carousel)
If, for example, you are a hedge cutter or operate a garden maintenance business, it would be a good idea to incorporate some photos of work done as your images. It is always best to use photos you have taken yourself that show actual jobs you have done, rather than just using stock photos from the internet.

Network Section: Newsletter Sign Up and Network Z Advert
All zpages end with an invitation to sign up for the Network Z newsletter and to join the network. The more people who do this, the greater the chances are that someone who you don't know yet will see your page and call you and you will get a new customer. One of the main advantages of having a zpage is that people coming to look at the page of another member will come across your page, so the more people who visit us, the better for all of us!
Thanks for stopping by at Z Pages!
We hope you enjoyed visiting us and found something of interest,
Network Z is primarily designed to host webpages (called zpages) for micro & small businesses, tradespeople, authors, poets, artists, musicians & many others who don't have their own standalone websites.
Many of our members are start-ups and are not yet in a position to have their own websites with all the costs that entails. So, please sign up for our regular Newsletter (it is honestly ONLY weekly at most - we will not spam you!) and help support growing businesses!
The Newsletter contains:
-
info about new businesses you might be interested in
-
updates on existing businesses, e.g. new products
-
discounts, vouchers and deals that may be available
-
events that are coming up, like village and church fetes etc.
-
other stuff that we think might be interesting, e.g. a new novel
To subscribe, please just click below and enter your first name and email.
(Form opens in a new tab)
Why not join us at Network Z?
With membership fees starting at just £7 per month plus a small setup fee, you can have your own dedicated webpage (called a zpage) for your own customers, clients, members, followers, subscribers, fans or friends, and also pick up new visitors from all the people coming along to look at other members' pages!
Your URL would be:
zpages.net/name-of-your-webpage
(e.g. zpages.net/josephwyndham)
Traffic analysis shows that many people visiting portals like Network Z (i.e. to look at a particular member's page) often stay on the site and look at several other member pages before leaving.
So, if you only have a small advertising budget, joining Network Z could be a great way to get your business, group or project seen by more people.
Terms & Conditions Section
This is a simple text section where you place your own Customer Terms (what you promise, what customers must do, cancellations, refunds, etc.). Keep it plain English, include your legal/trading name & contact details if they are not already in your footer, and add a “Last updated” date.
What you put here is not determined by Network Z as we are only your page host: it is up to you what should go in your Terms & Conditions. However, as we know from experience that many small businesses get stuck with this, we have created a couple of blog posts to help you out: you can find them under Network Admin Posts in the blog.
Please bear in mind that these posts are for guidance only and are generic; if you want a fully robust set of Terms & Conditions entirely bespoke to your particular business then please speak to your usual legal adviser or business consultant - if you don't have one, please ask us and we can refer you to a Network member so you can get the 20% fees discount.
