How do I create a Smart Page?

Create a Smart Page in SendFox in minutes: a hosted page with a built-in signup form that connects straight to your list — no website needed.

What you need to know

  • Smart Pages live under GrowthSmart Pages.
  • Free plan: 1 Smart Page. Lifetime and Pro: unlimited.
  • Every Smart Page includes a signup form that adds subscribers to the list you choose.
  • The builder is a full-page editor with four tabs and a live preview — your page updates as you type.

How to create a Smart Page

  1. Go to GrowthSmart Pages and click Create Smart Page. (The small arrow next to the button opens the Smart Page Assistant, which builds a starting page for you.)

  1. Give your page a Page title at the top of the builder.
  2. Build your page with the four tabs on the left — Content, Design, Form, and Settings — while the live preview on the right updates as you type.
  3. Click Publish page when you're ready. On the Share your smart page screen, click Copy link to grab your live URL. Any later edits go live the moment you click Publish changes.

The four builder tabs

Content

  • Header: choose Your name or Your logo for the top of the page.
  • Page copy: a Headline and a Body that tells visitors what they'll get when they subscribe.
  • Page image: an optional image shown beside your copy and the form.
  • Feed page: turn this on to publish your past emails as a blog under this page. Use Include emails tagged to limit it to certain campaign tags, or leave it empty to include every sent email — see what the Enable Feed page feature does.

Design

  • Themes: pick from eight ready-made looks, including dark backgrounds (Classic, Ink, Blush, Mint, Indigo, Slate, Paper, Teal).
  • Colors: fine-tune the Accent and Background colors, or set a custom color.
  • Type style: choose Modern sans or Editorial serif.

Form

  • Fields to collect: email is always on; toggle on First name, Last name, and any of your custom contact fields.
  • Button: set the signup button copy.
  • GDPR consent checkbox: add an opt-in checkbox with your own consent text.

Settings

  • Add signups to list: choose the list new subscribers join (a page won't publish until a list is selected).
  • Redirect after signup: optionally send new subscribers to a URL of your choice.
  • Page URL: your live SendFox address, with a Copy button once the page is published.
  • List in the Smart Page Gallery: get extra exposure in the public gallery and pick a Gallery category. (On the Free plan this shows an upgrade prompt instead.)
  • Meta Pixel ID: add a pixel to track page views for your ad campaigns.

Preview your page

The preview pane on the right shows exactly what visitors will see and refreshes as you edit. Use the Desktop and Mobile toggles to check both layouts, and — if you turned on the feed — switch between the Landing and Feed views.

After publishing your page

  • Click Share (top of the builder) to reopen the share screen and copy your link — great for link-in-bio, social posts, and QR codes.
  • Promote (on the Smart Pages list) gives you ideas and links for sharing your page.
  • Make primary points your custom URL (sendfox.com/yourname) at that page — see changing which Smart Page uses your custom URL.

Use your own domain (Pro)

On the Pro plan, your primary Smart Page can load on a domain you own (for example, news.yourdomain.com) instead of a sendfox.com address:

  1. Go to SettingsSendingSmart page domain, enter your domain, and click Add domain.
  2. At your DNS provider, add the CNAME record SendFox shows you — it points your domain to pages.sendfox.com.
  3. Back in SendFox, click Verify. Once verified, your primary Smart Page loads on your domain. SendFox issues an SSL certificate automatically, so the first visit may take a few extra seconds.

Only your primary Smart Page is served on a custom domain — choose which page is primary with Make Primary (see changing which Smart Page uses your custom URL).

Troubleshooting

The Create Smart Page button is disabled

  • The Free plan includes 1 Smart Page. To create more, upgrade your plan — or edit, clone over, or delete your existing page.

My page isn't collecting subscribers

  • Check the Form tab in the editor and make sure a list is selected for new signups.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many Smart Pages can I create?

One on the Free plan; unlimited on Lifetime and Pro.

What does the Smart Page Assistant do?

It builds a starting Smart Page for you (it can pull from your website), which you can then edit like any other page.

What's my page's address?

Every page gets its own SendFox URL, and your primary page also answers at your custom URL (sendfox.com/yourname) — set the custom URL under SettingsProfile. On the Pro plan you can also connect your own domain.
