Site terminology

When you ask Kamu to make changes, it helps to use the same terms we do — then Kamu knows immediately which part of the site you mean, and no time (or tokens) is wasted on guessing. This page is a glossary of the most common parts of a website.

Site terminology illustrated

Parts of a site​

  • Header — the bar at the top of the site that looks the same on every page. Usually contains the logo, the navigation, and the main action.
  • Logo — your company's mark on the left side of the header. Usually works as a link to the home page.
  • Navigation (or tabs / menu) — links to the site's main pages, usually in the header.
  • Banner or Hero — the large visual area at the top of a page that welcomes the visitor and says what the site is about.
  • Heading (H1) — the most important heading of a page. Each page has only one H1 heading, and it says concisely what the page is about.
  • CTA button (Call To Action) — a button-shaped link that guides the visitor to the most important action: "Contact us", "Request a quote", "Book an appointment".
  • Breadcrumb — a navigation trail at the top of a page that shows where on the site you are (e.g. Home › Services › Web design).
  • Sidebar — a vertical menu at the edge of a page, for example a list of subpages in services or a blog.
  • Content area — the main text content of a page, including subheadings (H2, H3), body text, images, and links.
  • Cards — separate content boxes used to highlight services, references, or blog posts.
  • Footer — the bar at the bottom of the site that looks the same on every page. Often contains contact details, a copyright notice, and links to the privacy policy, cookies, and accessibility statement.

Using the terms in requests​

The terms are especially useful in Studio and Chat when you want to target a change at a specific part. Examples:

  • "Change the header background from white to light gray on all pages."
  • "Add a CTA button with the text Book a free consultation to the front page hero."
  • "Increase the font size of the services page H1 heading and center it."
  • "Add a link to the accessibility statement in the footer."
  • "Move the blog page sidebar from the right side to the left."

When you use a precise term, Kamu does not have to guess which part of the page you mean. One clear turn is usually much cheaper than a back-and-forth clarification conversation.
