FAQ

Resources page design, answered

The questions people ask before building a resource library or an academy, answered from 70 real ones.

What should a resources page include?

01

Four in five resource libraries sort their content into named categories, close to four in five put an image on every card, and about seven in ten open with a line saying what the library is for.

Does a resources page need a search box?

02

Most do without one. One resource library in five has a real search box, about a third offer filters, and the rest lean on categories alone.

Should resources be one grid or grouped by format?

03

Grouped, more often than not. About three in five break the library into themed rows such as guides, reports or webinars, and about half give one resource a featured spot above the rest.

What kind of content goes in a resource library?

04

Guides lead: three in four resource libraries carry them. More than a third carry reports, about a third webinars, and fewer than one in three videos or ebooks.

What should an academy page show?

05

About two in five academies offer a certificate at the end, about a third show how long each course takes, and fewer than one in four name the instructors. Most of their courses are free.
