# Creating Sets

*Article Topics:* [*Content*](/getting-started/common-topics/content.md)*,* [*Sets*](/getting-started/common-topics/sets.md)

## Introduction

Content Sets can be created in the Admin or uploaded directly from a directory on the Server. When making a set using the "Add Set" button, the set itself will be empty and must be populated with Content. 

Content can be uploaded directly from a directory on the server. Using this method, you can create sets with existing content more easily. This is especially beneficial when uploading large amounts of content.

See [Creating Sets from the Server](/content-management/sets/managing-sets/creating-sets-from-the-server.md) for a more detailed instruction on FTPing your files. 

Content sets are created using a Name, Description, and Content Server. The Name of the content set determines what is displayed to your site visitors. The description describes the content itself, while the Content Server serves as the home for your Content.

## Creating a Content Set

A Content Set must first be created to upload Content to it. 

1. Navigate to the Sets section underneath the Content Management tab.
2. Select the "Add Set" button at the top right of the page.

You'll then be presented with the Content tab, where you can begin uploading content to the set.&#x20;

Once an empty set has been created, the next step is Uploading Content to this set.

{% content-ref url="/pages/pn4OKr8ayYi7lURNkQBp" %}
[Uploading Content to Sets](/content-management/sets/managing-sets/uploading-content-to-sets.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

If you have uploaded sets through the server, the next steps will be to publish to your Site.

{% content-ref url="/pages/q6qTSu9qX7hWcA6CJZ8w" %}

{% endcontent-ref %}
