Hero：Footer Section

The footer section is your navigation that appears in the bottom margin of your web pages. An effective footer section may contain links to other parts of your website, such as store policy terms, and store introduction. The footer section is a great place to build trust and enhance the user experience by making it easier and faster for people to access the information they need.

This section is useful when:

• You want to improve the quality of service by adding more contact information as well as building trust with your clients.
• You want to increase social media engagement for your brand.

This guide will help you understand how to create a Footer section in Hero.

Layout

If your customers are viewing your store pages on mobile devices or using window sizes from desktops, the footer menu will be compressed into vertical layers for shortening long pages of content into broad, easy-to-scan topics. Here, you can choose to have your footer navigation either expandable or always visible by default.

An effective footer section improves a store's overall usability.  Potential customers turn to the footer section to find more options that are not available in global navigations. A refined footer section can also remind your customers about other offerings from your store.
