Managing Your Menus

WordPress allows you to easily manage your site’s menu, although this many not be apparent the first time. In fact, a fresh WordPress installation doesn’t use the easy menu system at all – you have to manually hook it up yourself.

At this point, however, you have already learned the different custom post types and have added them to your affiliate site. Here, I will simply show you how the menu works once your site goes live, as well as the order of the sub-menu items in your drop-down menu.

The menu should look like this:

There’s Home, Reviews, Types (i.e. products), Tutorials, and Contact pages.

  • Reviews should contain your product reviews. You can also find Feature Pages on the sidebar.
  • Types is where your site visitors can find more information about the product they’re looking for. Guides are also found here.
  • Tutorials is a page where you list down all your tutorials/how-to articles. It’s like a blog, but it’s solely for tutorials. It’s a great quality signal for a website.

Quick Tip:

If you want to customize your menu system, simply go to your WordPress admin panel. From the sidebar, click on Appearance, and then on Menu.
