You could create a seperate DataObject and use ModelAdmin to admin the DataObject, or use this approach:

You could use the same code, but display it in the footer instead of the sidebar.
Or create a PageType like GlobalBlockPage.
And add in the static $db array ("Footer" => "Text", "OtherStaticText" => "Text" ); //etc
To ensure that the pagetype never show up in the menu add () to class GlobalBlockPage :
function onBeforeWrite () {
if($this->ID){
$this->record['ShowInMenus'] = 0;
}
parent::onBeforeWrite ();
}To ensure you only have One GlobalBLockPage type add:
function canCreate() {
if(DataObject::get_one('GlobalBlockPage')) {
return false;
} else {
return true;
}
}In Page_Controller (not BlobalBlokPage) you do something like:
getFooter(){
return DataObject::get_one("GlobalBlockPage")->FooterText;
}or
getOtherStaticText(){
return DataObject::get_one("GlobalBlockPage")->OtherStaticText;
}Or call the whole object once and call getYourFunction.FooterText in the templates...
This should get you started.
Of Course you still can create DataObject and admin it with ModelAdmin and call that Object from Page to show it on the frontend:
