# Create a starter site for your agents

*Agent Websites*

Creating a starter site takes a few seconds — you give it a name, and you get a fresh single-page site ready to build out. Everything after that is design work in the editor. This guide covers the create step and the one field agents will see; for what to actually put inside, see [Design a great agent starter site](/design-an-agent-starter-site).

## Before you begin

- You need to be a community **owner** or **admin**. Managers and agents can't create starters.
- Building a starter doesn't require the **Agent Websites** feature to be on — you can prepare starters in advance. But agents can't clone them until a platform operator turns that feature on for your community. See [Agent starter sites, explained](/agent-starter-sites-overview).

## Create a starter

1. In the orange platform panel, open your community's **Website** section.
2. Scroll to the **Starter sites for agents** card.
3. Click **New starter**.
4. Type a name and press **Create**. Name it for the kind of agent it's for — for example **Solo Agent** or **Brokerage Team** — because agents pick a starter by this name.

The new starter appears in the list with a single **Home** page, ready to design.

## Describe who it's for

Under each starter is a **Who is this for?** field. Write one plain sentence here — it shows on the card agents see when they choose a template, so it's what sells the starter to the right person.

Good descriptions name the agent and the shape of the site, for example:

> *For an individual agent building a personal brand — a bio-led home page, your listings, and a contact funnel. Best if you work solo.*

The field saves on its own as soon as you click away. You can change it any time — see [Manage your agent starter sites](/manage-agent-starter-sites).

## Open it in the editor

Click **Edit** next to the starter to open it in the full-screen website editor. This is the same builder you use for your community site, with two differences: the top bar badges the site **Starter**, and there's no Publish or Go live button — a starter is a clone source, not a public page, so you build it with **Save** and the **Preview** (eye) button only.

From here you add pages, blocks, navigation, and theme. Walk that in [Design a great agent starter site](/design-an-agent-starter-site).

## What happens next

1. Design the starter — [Design a great agent starter site](/design-an-agent-starter-site).
2. Preview it and tidy the roster — [Manage your agent starter sites](/manage-agent-starter-sites).
3. Make sure agents can reach it — confirm the **Agent Websites** feature is on, then point them at [How agents build sites from your starters](/how-agents-use-your-starter-sites).

## Troubleshooting

### I don't see a Starter sites for agents card

It sits on the **Website** overview in the orange platform panel, below your page list. If your community doesn't have a website yet, create it first ([Create your community website](/create-your-community-website)) — the starter section lives on the same overview. Also confirm you're signed in as an **owner** or **admin**; managers and agents don't see it.

### My new starter isn't offered to agents

Two common reasons: the **Agent Websites** feature isn't turned on for your community yet (a platform-operator setting), or the agent is looking at a different community. A starter is offered to agents in the same community it was created in, once the feature is on.
