What are Carrd templates?
A Carrd template is like a ready made Carrd website. You can preview and navigate it just like a real web page. If you like a template you can start a new page from it. This gives you a copy of the template that you can fill with your own logo, headlines, text, and images. You can create as many sites from a template as you like.
Carrd.co templates are super flexible and customisable. You can add, change or remove any of the premade elements after you make a site from a template. For example you can use different colors or fonts. Or you can remove all content and just keep the overall layout structure.
