If you add an E-Marketing Spot widget to a layout
and choose page-specific e-Marketing Spots, each page
to which the layout is assigned has its own generated e-Marketing
Spot. For each page, you must use the Marketing tool to create the
e-Marketing Spot and populate it with default content, or web activities,
or both.
