Etusivujen

Etusivu is a Finnish term that refers to the front page or homepage of a website or publication. It serves as the main entry point for a site, typically offering an overview of its content and links to the most important sections. The etusivu is designed to guide users quickly to relevant information and to present branding and key features.

Etusivujen is the genitive plural form of etusivu. It is used when talking about the front pages of more than one site or when referring to the front pages as a collective group. For example, phrases such as etusivujen suunnittelu (the design of the front pages) or etusivujen sisältö (the content of the front pages) are common in discussions of web design and publication workflows. In ordinary usage, a single domain typically has one etusivu, while etusivujen appears when multiple sites or multiple pages within a network are involved.

Usage notes and related terms: etusivu is the standard term for the main page of a site, whereas kotisivu or kotisivut are sometimes used as synonyms, especially in casual speech. The choice between etusivu and kotisivu can reflect a focus on the site’s branding (etusivu) versus its home page in everyday language (kotisivu).
