Hello, Yes you can have web part zones in page layouts. Please take a look at these: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-designer-help/create-a-publishing-page-layout-HA010174128.aspx http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-server-help/create-a-page-layout-HA010120642.aspx When you are in SharePoint Designer, you can add a web part zone to the page layout. To do this, simply click on the zone where you want it, then click Insert > SharePoint Controls > Web Part Zone.Chris Caravajal MCTS SharePoint Help
