Étape 1

Plan around beginner worries

List what holds people back from a first visit.

1. 01List the questions beginners ask about level, equipment, clothing and what happens in class.
2. 02List the goals people search for that your classes support.
3. 03Decide which classes need their own page and which can share one.
4. 04Plan a first-visit page as the centre of the site.

Étape 2

Create class and coach pages

Describe classes honestly, by level and by what happens in them.

1. 01Write a page per class type: who it suits, what happens in a session, what to bring.
2. 02Write coach profiles that describe their approach and qualifications.
3. 03Write the first-visit page: arrival, changing, the first session and what to expect after.
4. 04Write articles for beginner questions in your discipline, without health promises.

Étape 3

Publish before the doors open

Have everything a first-timer needs ready.

3. 03Keep the timetable on the website identical to the booking system.

2. 02Check which pages appear in search for class types and your area.
3. 03Ask new members which page helped them decide.
4. 04Update class pages when formats, levels or coaches change.
