# Claiming Your Website


# Claiming Your My Place Website

### Step 1: Locate Your Claim Link

Your website has been generated and is available to claim - this means there’s no complicated setup, your venue’s site is ready to preview immediately!

Your **claim link** will have been supplied to you already. It will look something like this:

**https://yourvenue.my-place.io/?claim=1**

**Select the claim link to open the page in a web browser.**

### Step 2: Claim your website

A '**Claim this listing' banner** will appear at the top of the webpage.

Click the '**Claim this venue' button**.

You will then be asked to **create an account**. You will be asked for these details:
* First/Last name
* Email address
* A password

**Your website is now yours 🎉**

### Accessing Your Website & Editing

To make changes to your site, simply go to your website’s URL and append `/login` to access the admin interface. For example:

**https://yourvenue.my-place.io/login**

This will take you to the editing interface, where you’ll be able to manage your website's **main page tabs** and see a **pencil button** in the bottom right corner. Clicking this button will allow you to update your site’s **key settings**.

### Editing Your Website Content

My Place makes editing your website straightforward:

* **Key Site Settings:** Accessible via the edit panel after logging in.
* **Main Page Tabs:** Each section of your site (e.g., Events, Menus, Offers) can be edited directly on its respective tab.

* **Adding & Editing Content:**
* Look for an **“Add Event”** button when managing events.
* To update an existing item (like an event or menu item), navigate to that page and click the **“Edit”** button.

### What’s Next?

For your website to be listed on search engines such as **Google**, you will need to connect a **custom domain name**. 

To do this, you will need to upgrade your account:
