firstPage

Firstpage is a term with multiple meanings in publishing and information technology. In its most general sense, it refers to the initial page of a document or book, commonly designated as page 1 and often containing front matter, a title page, or the opening text. The exact content of the first page varies by genre and publishing tradition, but it serves as the document’s entry point.

In digital contexts, firstpage is often used to describe the homepage of a website—the main entry point users encounter when visiting a site. The homepage typically offers branding, navigation to key sections, and access to core functionality. The term can also apply to the first page of a digital document, PDF, or report.

The phrase may also appear in branding. The name firstpage or FirstPage has been adopted by several firms offering web-related services or document-management tools, and the exact features and offerings vary by product and region. As a result, there is no single canonical product or definition associated with the term.
