Can I use systeme.io without knowing any code?

How a page is actually built

You start from a template or from a blank canvas, then work in three layers. Drag a Section onto the page. Sections hold rows and columns. Columns hold elements such as text, an image or a video.

Clicking an element's settings icon opens its options on the left: typography, colour, size, position. A Reset icon beside a setting puts it back the way it was.

The whole route to a first page

systeme.io's own walkthrough, start to finish:

1. Sales funnels, then Create.
2. Choose Custom, then Save.
3. Inside the funnel, click Add step.
4. Enter a name for the page and pick its page type.
5. Pick a template from the designs offered, or start from scratch.
6. Drag elements in and click each one to style it.

Adding a section brings a row and a column with it, so the three layers are not three separate jobs. More columns come from dragging the Column element inside a section.

Where code can go if you ever want it

There are boxes for it. A page's Settings has a header and a footer field under Tracking, one account-wide field applies code across every funnel, and a Raw HTML element can be dragged onto most page types like any other element.

None of them is required to build a working page, and a beginner can go a long way without opening any of them.

The technical step that is not code

Connecting a domain. That means creating two CNAME records in your registrar's DNS zone and, on most hosts, a redirection from the bare domain to the www address.

If that sentence is the reason you are stalling, systeme.io support does it for you at no charge on any plan, and issues the SSL certificate automatically once it is connected. The request is made from the page at systeme.io/free-dns-setup.
