Publishing and sharing a page
Publishing a SalesPad, its URL, previewing before you go live, and what gets tracked.
Previewing before you publish
Every page has a preview URL that works whether or not it's published. Use it to check the page as a visitor sees it, especially on a phone.
Preview it before publishing anything you're sending traffic to. The editor canvas is close to the real thing but not identical, and mobile is where layout problems show up.
Publishing
- Click Publish Page in the editor
- Set the URL slug
- Confirm
The page goes live immediately at its public address.
Your page URL
Published pages are served from your team's subdomain:
https://your-team.salescal.site/your-pageThe first part is your team slug, fixed for your account. The last part is the page slug you set when publishing.
Slugs must be unique across your team. If you pick one that's taken you'll see:
This URL is already in use by another page
Keep slugs short, readable, and stable. They appear in ads, emails, and anywhere else the link gets pasted.
Choosing your homepage
If you publish two or more pages, decide which one visitors land on at your site's bare address:
https://your-team.salescal.sitePick one from the Homepage dropdown in the SalesPads page header.
With exactly one published page, that page serves at the root automatically and there's nothing to configure. The dropdown only appears once you have a second published page to choose from.
Select None (automatic) to hand it back to that same automatic behavior.
If you later unpublish the page you'd set as your homepage, your site's root doesn't break. It falls back on its own rather than pointing at a missing page.
Changing the slug later
You can change it, but the old URL stops working immediately. Anything already pointing at it breaks: live ads, sent emails, printed material, links from other sites.
If a page has traffic, treat its slug as permanent.
Updating a published page
Editing a live page doesn't change what visitors see. Your edits are saved as you work, but the live page keeps serving the last published version until you publish again.
That's deliberate. You can rework a live page over several sessions without visitors seeing it half-finished.
What gets tracked
Each page records:
- Page views — total loads
- Unique visits — distinct visitors
- Booking started — a visitor began the booking form
- Booking completed — a booking was made
The gap between these numbers is the useful part. Plenty of views and few booking starts means the page isn't persuading. Plenty of starts and few completions means the form is losing people, usually because it's too long or availability is too thin.
Tracking integrations
If you use Meta Pixel, Google Tag Manager, or Hyros, SalesPad views and bookings feed into them alongside your other booking data. Set those up under Integrations rather than pasting scripts into page settings.
Archiving
Archiving retires a page and takes it out of your active list without deleting it. Prefer this to deleting when a campaign ends, so you keep the page and its history in case you want it back.
Deleting is permanent and breaks the URL immediately.
