Maria is designing a product website and wants to capture visitors’ attention right from the homepage. Their strategy involves integrating key elements like product images, descriptions, and reviews into the hero section of the site.
To execute this, Maria opts for the Inner Section widget, leveraging its capability to segment the section into multiple columns. In one column, they showcase images of the product, while in another, they add its features and benefits. Additionally, Maria incorporates testimonials from satisfied customers and strategically places links to the brand’s social media profiles within one of the columns.
