Site Structure
Basic concepts for creating your site structure
 •  You can make any page a pay page
 •  If people without a subscription browse to an Ipaya pay page, they automatically see this page instead.
For normal sites this means:
 •  It's a good idea to let your homepage stay a free page
 •  Other vital pages like your contact details should stay free as well
 •  It might be a good idea to explain your visitors what Ipaya is before they click on a page, are transferred to our stopping page and get confused.
Example, small site
Homepage (free)
    Basic Infos (free)
 Previews (free)
 Pay page 1
 Pay page 2
 Contacts (free)
   The homepage contains a small text box explaining Ipaya. This box is placed at the start of the section with the links to the pay pages.
Example, bigger site
Homepage (free)
    Section A (free)
 ...
 Pay Section (1st page free)
     Detail pages (pay)
  ...
   Since all pay pages are in a subsection, there is no explanation of Ipaya on the Homepage. The page that comes immediately before the pay pages ("Pay Section") contains the explanation.
Short explanation when linking
There are cases where you don't want to explain Ipaya:
 •  You have no time
 •  You link to another site
However, you would still like to point out that the provided link your visitors are about to click might not work if they don't have a subscription. Here are some suggestions:
 •  Don't do anything and let every user find out
 •  Add (costs, needs Ipaya) to the link
 •  If you think your users might have already heard what Ipaya is, just add (Ipaya) to the link to save further space
