Simple Mode: create a website with guided setup

Simple Mode is the easiest website creation flow in Centuply.

It guides you step by step and asks only for the basic information AI needs to create a first professional website proposal.

When to use Simple Mode​

Use Simple Mode when:

  • you want to start quickly,
  • you do not want many technical options,
  • you want simple guidance,
  • you do not know the exact site structure yet,
  • you want AI to suggest initial content,
  • you are creating a website for a small business,
  • you want to edit later inside the editor.

What Simple Mode asks for​

It usually asks for basic details such as:

  • business type,
  • business name,
  • short description,
  • services,
  • location,
  • language,
  • tone,
  • main website goal,
  • contact details,
  • optional features.

You do not need perfect copy. A clear description is enough.

Step 1 — Open Create Website​

Open the Centuply app and select Create website or New site.

If creation options appear, choose Simple Mode or the guided setup flow.

Step 2 — Describe your business​

Describe your business in simple words.

Examples:

  • “Dermatology clinic in Piraeus”
  • “Hair salon for women and men”
  • “Restaurant with Mediterranean cuisine”
  • “Computer technician with on-site visits”
  • “Business consultant for small companies”

The clearer you explain what you do, the better the initial proposal will be.

Step 3 — Add services​

Write the main services you offer.

Example for a hair salon:

  • Haircut,
  • Color,
  • Styling,
  • Hair treatments,
  • Bridal styling.

Do not add too much detail at the beginning. You can add more later.

Step 4 — Choose website goal​

The goal helps AI organize the site better.

Goal examples:

  • generate leads,
  • increase bookings,
  • present services,
  • provide information,
  • strengthen the brand,
  • help visitors contact you.

If the main goal is for customers to call you, the website should have strong contact CTAs.

Step 5 — Add location and contact details​

If the business is local, add the location.

Examples:

  • Piraeus,
  • Athens,
  • Glyfada,
  • Thessaloniki,
  • online services,
  • nationwide service.

Also add phone, email, or address if available.

Step 6 — Choose tone​

Tone affects the copy and feel of the website.

Examples:

  • professional,
  • premium,
  • friendly,
  • modern,
  • minimal,
  • serious,
  • warm,
  • dynamic.

For example, a clinic needs a more trustworthy and clean tone, while a café can use a warmer and friendlier tone.

Step 7 — Review the summary​

Before continuing, review the information summary.

Make sure:

  • business type is correct,
  • services are correct,
  • location is correct,
  • language is correct,
  • website goal is correct,
  • there are no mistakes in phone or email.

Step 8 — Continue to generation​

When the details are correct, continue to website generation.

Centuply will use the information to create the initial site draft.

Generation may include:

  • initial page structure,
  • sections,
  • headlines,
  • descriptions,
  • CTAs,
  • services,
  • contact areas,
  • suggested tone.

Step 9 — Review the result​

When generation is complete, review the website carefully.

Check:

  • whether the hero explains the business correctly,
  • whether services are correct,
  • whether the tone fits,
  • whether CTAs are clear,
  • whether the structure makes sense,
  • whether any important information is missing.

Step 10 — Continue in the editor​

Simple Mode creates the starting point.

After that, inside the editor you can change:

  • text,
  • images,
  • sections,
  • pages,
  • buttons,
  • colors,
  • forms,
  • SEO,
  • publishing and domain settings.

The first AI proposal does not need to be perfect. It is the starting point.

Best practices​

  • Write a clear business description.
  • Avoid generic phrases without meaning.
  • Add the main services.
  • Choose the correct website goal.
  • Review details before generation.
  • Do not try to write everything perfectly at the start.
  • Use the editor to improve the website after generation.
