Template Set Up
The HubSpot Migrations Team will create customized templates matching your website so you can start creating content in HubSpot.
The HubSpot Template Setup Service provides a defined set of templates that will match your website as closely as possible. These templates use drag-and-drop functionality so you can easily start creating pages and blog posts without coding knowledge. Not only are the templates user-friendly, but they also provide a consistent viewing experience for your visitors as they navigate from your website to your HubSpot hosted content.
Please note: This is a standardized service, not a tailored design or redesign process. HubSpot will match your website's header, footer, and typography as closely as possible, while providing standardized page body layouts that you can customize. The content in the body of your page will not be included, only the content in your header and footer.
See Pricing & DetailsThe HubSpot Migrations Team will create a standard set of templates, global groups, and coded files to match your external website.
Please note that email templates are not included in this service. If this is something you are interested in, please check out our Email Template Rebuild service. Below are some examples of content types and features that HubSpot cannot migrate:
- Content will not be migrated as part of a template setup. If you wish to have your blog or website content migrated to HubSpot, please contact your primary point of contact at HubSpot and they will advise on next steps.
- Mega menus, image based menus, or menus with non-linked content (descriptions or paragraph content) will become simple dropdown menus.
- Flash websites, Flash navigation, and Flash with embedded links/multiple files associated.
