How to create a Contact Page
Contact forms allow visitors to get in touch with you, without you having to publicly give away your email address. It's less hassle for them, and less hassle for you. All that they have to do is fill in a few boxes, then, the information that they submit will appear as an email in your inbox - simple!
This page type can be used as a standalone contact page, or combined with another page type. For example, you could combine a gallery page and a contact form page to get instant feedback on your photos!
1. You will be pleased to know that it is extremely easy to create a contact page with InstantPro. To get started, simply click the 'Create New Page' button on the 'Site Overview' page.
2. From here, select the large 'Contact' button.

In the box below enter in the email address that any enquiries will be sent to, for example, 'info@instant-site.myfreeola.com'. Now when anyone uses the contact form, the information will be sent via email to this address. Then click 'Finish' and your page will be created!
