To log in to Webnode, go to webnode.com, click “Log in” in the top right, and enter the email and password you used to sign up. If you built your site on a country-specific domain (webnode.cz, webnode.page, etc.), the login screen is the same across all of them. If you’ve forgotten your password, use the “Forgot password” link on that page rather than trying to guess an old login URL.
If you’re reading this because you’re thinking about leaving Webnode rather than just logging back in, here’s what you’re working with, what its export gives you, and what has to be rebuilt from scratch on WordPress.
What Webnode is
Webnode is a drag-and-drop website builder aimed at small businesses, freelancers and personal sites. Like other builders in its category, it’s a closed system: your site’s design, content and structure live inside Webnode’s platform and aren’t stored in a format you can move elsewhere without conversion.
That’s fine while you’re happy with the templates, the pricing tiers and the feature set. It becomes a problem once you outgrow it — usually when you need more control over design, better SEO tooling, plugins for specific business functions, or ownership of the underlying files.
What Webnode’s export actually gives you
Webnode doesn’t offer a full site export in the way a CMS built on open standards might. There’s no single download that hands you a WordPress-ready package. What you can typically pull out is limited and needs manual work to reuse:
| Usually available | Usually not exportable |
| Page text content (copy/paste) | Page layout and design |
| Images, one by one | Theme/template structure |
| Blog post text | Contact form logic and submissions history |
| A list of your URLs (manually compiled) | SEO metadata in bulk |
In practice, most people leaving Webnode end up copying content page by page rather than relying on a bulk export. There’s no XML feed or database dump comparable to what you’d get from an open CMS.
What has to be rebuilt on WordPress
Because Webnode doesn’t hand over a structured export, moving to WordPress means rebuilding rather than importing. Expect to redo:
- Page layouts, since Webnode’s builder doesn’t map to WordPress themes or block layouts
- Navigation menus and site structure
- Contact forms, using a WordPress form plugin
- SEO titles and meta descriptions, page by page
- Redirects from old Webnode URLs to their new WordPress equivalents, to avoid losing search rankings
- Any e-commerce product listings, if you used Webnode’s shop feature
The redirect step matters more than people expect. If your Webnode site has any search visibility at all, launching a WordPress site on new URLs without redirects will cost you that traffic. Map your old URLs to new ones before you switch DNS over, not after.
Is it worth the switch
WordPress gives you plugin access, more theme flexibility, and full ownership of your files and database, none of which Webnode offers. The tradeoff is that you’re responsible for hosting, updates and security yourself, or through whoever manages that for you. If you just need a simple brochure site with no growth plans, that overhead may not be worth it. If you’re hitting Webnode’s limits on design, SEO control or functionality, it usually is.
Before you commit, check that WordPress is actually a good fit for what you’re building — see the the platform index for a broader comparison if you’re still deciding between systems.
