What has Webnode done this year? Space, we gave you more of it. Assistance, we are with you. Continue to find out which new features you might have missed this year.

Features and Functions

Space

Mobile phone storage increases with every new release. So, Webnode gave you more space and doubled the storage for the Mini Plan. For the higher ones, the data storage was increased by 50%.

We know your business is growing, and so is your content. No matter if it is images, text, downloadable files, forms, or videos, all shall be published online. Enjoy the little extras that maximize your internet presence.

Making editing your site easier

Starting a website from scratch as a novice can be a bit overwhelming. That is why the onboarding tool was created. What is that exactly? Whenever you create a new website project with Webnode, a step-by-step guide will assist you with your site.

Spacing block

And yet again, more space! In the web design blog article, you come across elements that make a website more readable and easier to navigate through. Moreover, what gives tired eyes a break is allowing them to stare into the blank. In a world of information overload, space is like letting fresh air into a stuffed room. Give people a breather and add a spacing block:

FAQs

Aren’t you also annoyed when you open a website and have many questions, but can’t find the answers? Who among you has not searched for crucial information on pages of an online store trying to find out if you can have things delivered to your place?

You won’t be a bad example. Include an FAQ section on the pages of your site. It’s a guarantee your visitors will be satisfied, not disappointed.

Localized fonts

Webnode speaks your language. You will find our website builder exists in 24 different languages. But that is not all. Our tongues are also reflected in the fonts of the templates.

Security

Unwanted messages from forms are annoying and discouraging. You are hoping for some lead contact, a booking, or a serious question and instead, you get gibberish. Now, you can end this and filter the access to your website by IP address and activate the ReCaptcha.

Reveal suspicious files with malware scanning. For a guide on how to activate these useful functions, follow the description in our knowledgebase.

Webnoders are sporty people. Our in-house challenges to count every kilometer on Strava do not just make us fitter. We also convert kilometers into coins. For example, the local charity Dobry Andel frequently receives donations from our efforts. We ran, swam, hiked, and hopped half around the globe (27,276.6 km) to donate 136,383.0 CZK to this charity in the last month alone!

Customer support

We help individuals and small businesses to be successful online

We answered 230k email requests in 2022 and a whopping 85% would recommend our service to others. Our reply times are also known to be above industry standards.
