How to Add a Table of Contents in GoHighLevel Blogs

If you manage content in tools like ClickUp and publish on GoHighLevel, adding a clear table of contents can dramatically improve blog navigation and user experience. This guide walks you through the exact steps to insert a clickable table of contents in your GoHighLevel blog post using the built-in editor and simple HTML anchors.

Why Add a Table of Contents in GoHighLevel Blogs

A table of contents helps readers scan long GoHighLevel blog posts quickly and jump to the section they need with a single click. It also encourages visitors to stay on the page longer, which can indirectly benefit SEO and overall engagement.

Using the standard GoHighLevel blog editor, you can create a fully functional table of contents without any custom plugins or external scripts. All you need is basic text formatting and a few anchor links.

Prerequisites for Using the GoHighLevel Blog Editor

Before you start, make sure you have:

• Access to your GoHighLevel account
• Permission to create or edit blog posts
• A draft or published blog article you want to enhance

Once these are in place, you can open the GoHighLevel blog editor and begin building your internal navigation structure.

Step 1: Open Your GoHighLevel Blog Post

Begin by locating the specific blog article where you want to add the table of contents:

1. Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
2. Navigate to the Sites or Blogs section, depending on your setup.
3. Open the blog post you want to edit in the GoHighLevel blog editor.

Make sure you are in the text editor view where you can add headings, paragraphs, and links inside your GoHighLevel content area.

Step 2: Plan the Sections for Your GoHighLevel Table of Contents

Before inserting links, outline the main sections of your GoHighLevel blog post. These sections will become the items inside your table of contents.

Common examples of sections include:

• Introduction
• Features or benefits
• Step-by-step instructions
• FAQs or troubleshooting
• Conclusion or next steps

Each of these sections will need a unique anchor so that the table of contents can link directly to that part of the GoHighLevel blog page.

Step 3: Insert the Table of Contents Area in GoHighLevel

Next, decide where the table of contents will appear within your GoHighLevel article. Most creators place it near the top of the post, under the main heading or introduction.

1. Click into the editor where you want the table of contents to appear.
2. Add a heading such as Table of Contents so readers immediately know what it is.
3. Below that heading, create a list of the sections you planned.

For example, you might add:

• Introduction
• Benefits
• Step-by-step guide
• FAQs
• Conclusion

These list items will be converted into clickable links once you add anchors to the corresponding sections further down the GoHighLevel blog.

Step 4: Add Anchors to Your GoHighLevel Headings

To make the table of contents clickable, each section heading in your GoHighLevel post needs an anchor (a unique identifier in the HTML). The exact appearance of the editor may vary, but the basic method is:

1. Scroll to the section heading you want to link to (for example, Benefits).
2. Highlight or click the heading text.
3. Use the editor’s link or anchor feature to create an internal anchor name such as benefits or step-by-step.

The official GoHighLevel documentation provides a clear example of this process. You can reference their guide here: GoHighLevel help article on tables of contents.

Repeat this anchor-creation step for each major heading in your GoHighLevel blog post that should be reachable from the table of contents.

Step 5: Link the Table of Contents Items in GoHighLevel

Now that your section headings have anchors, go back to the table of contents at the top of your GoHighLevel article and turn each list item into a clickable link.

1. Highlight a table of contents item, such as Benefits.
2. Click the link icon in the GoHighLevel editor.
3. In the URL or link field, enter the anchor reference (for example, #benefits).
4. Apply or save the link.

Repeat this for each item in the table of contents, matching the correct anchor target for each section. When a visitor clicks one of these links, the GoHighLevel page will scroll directly to the corresponding section.

Step 6: Preview and Test in GoHighLevel

After setting up your anchors and links, always preview the GoHighLevel blog post to confirm that everything works correctly.

1. Click Preview in the GoHighLevel editor.
2. In the preview window, click each table of contents link.
3. Verify that the page scrolls smoothly to the correct section.
4. Check on both desktop and mobile views to ensure proper behavior.

If any link does not work, return to the editor, confirm the anchor name on the section heading, and make sure the table of contents link includes the matching #anchor-name format.

Best Practices for GoHighLevel Blog Tables of Contents

To keep your GoHighLevel blog easy to navigate and user-friendly, consider the following best practices:

• Use clear headings: Make each linked section title descriptive so readers immediately understand what they will find.
• Limit the number of items: Too many entries can overwhelm users; focus on your main sections.
• Maintain a logical order: Arrange sections in the same order they appear in your GoHighLevel article.
• Update when you edit: If you change or remove headings, update the table of contents links and anchors to match.

These practices help ensure that your GoHighLevel content stays organized and that the table of contents remains accurate over time.

Using GoHighLevel with Other SEO Tools

Although the table of contents setup is done inside GoHighLevel, you can plan, outline, and optimize your blog content using external tools. For example, you might manage your content strategy in ClickUp and then implement the technical details in your GoHighLevel blog editor.
