[**Add additional pages to your website.**]{.teal-text} By default, Quarto creates a landing page (`index.qmd`) and a page titled, "About" (`about.qmd`) We also practiced adding a "Resources" page (`resources.qmd`) during class. Consider if you want to keep all of these (though note that you *must* keep `index.qmd`) or add additional pages. If you're not quite ready to add content to them, it's sufficient to include placeholder text to those pages (e.g. *Coming soon!*). Recall that you can add / remove pages by modifying your `_quarto.yml` file.

To do so effectively, you'll first want to spend some time thinking intentionally about your *personal brand*. See the next [pre-class prep](week2-customizing-websites.qmd#pre-class-prep) for detailed instructions on how to prepare your personal branding guide.
