# Header

{% embed url="<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBU27qkkPWA>" %}

The header is a content block at the upper part of your website that appears on every page. It usually contains the logo of a store, the main navigation menu, and other elements such as a search bar, shopping cart icon, etc.

The header plays a vital role in branding your site, helping visitors navigate, and displaying your most important pages.&#x20;

You can freely customize your header to suit your business needs by adding your logo image, choosing the main menu, and other addons using **Minimog** theme.
