About GoDaddy Website Builder HTML Export
GoDaddy Website Builder lets you add custom code, but with serious limitations. Here's what actually works.
First, the bad news: you can't edit the underlying HTML. No view source, no direct code access. GoDaddy generates the code and you work within their visual editor. That's the deal with drag-and-drop builders.
But you can add code snippets. Here's how.
In the editor, click Add Section. Scroll down to find HTML or Custom Code section. Drag it onto your page where you want the code to appear.
Click the HTML section to edit. A code box opens. Paste your code. GoDaddy renders it on the page. Works for embeds, iframes, simple widgets.
What works well: YouTube embeds, Google Maps, social media widgets, basic forms from services like Typeform, calendly embeds. These are designed to be embedded and play nice with GoDaddy.
What doesn't work: anything that needs to modify the page structure, scripts that conflict with GoDaddy's own JavaScript, code requiring specific CSS that GoDaddy overrides. Trial and error, basically.
For tracking codes like Google Analytics or Facebook Pixel, there's a better way. Go to Settings in your editor. Find Site History & Analytics or Tracking Codes. Dedicated fields for these scripts, they load in the header propery.
Meta pixel, Google Ads conversion tracking, Hotjar, these go in the header code section. Settings > Advanced or similar, depending on GoDaddy's current interface. They move things around occasionally.
Some code needs the footer. Same place in settings, look for footer code injection. Analytics callbacks, chat widgets that should load last, footer is the spot.
Reality check: if you need significant custom code, GoDaddy's builder isn't ideal. It's designed for people who don't code. The HTML section is an escape hatch, not a feature.
For serious customization, consider WordPress, Webflow, or building a static site. Export your GoDaddy content and move to something that gives you actual code access.
One more thing, GoDaddy sanitizes HTML for security. Some tags get stripped. Complex JavaScript might not execute. Test everything in preview before publishing.
The HTML section is useful for small additions. Embedding a form, adding a chat widget, dropping in a tracking pixel. Don't expect to transform your site with code, GoDaddy won't let you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I add custom HTML to GoDaddy Website Builder?
Yes, through the HTML section element. It's limited though, GoDaddy sanitizes code for security, so some scripts won't work. Basic embeds and tracking codes are fine. Complex JavaScript might break.
Where do I add Google Analytics code in GoDaddy?
Go to Settings > Site History & Analytics. There's a dedicated field for Google Analytics tracking ID. For other tracking scripts, use the HTML section element or add to the header via Settings > Advanced.
Can I edit the full HTML of my GoDaddy site?
No. GoDaddy Website Builder doesn't give you access to the underlying HTML. You can add custom code snippets through HTML sections, but you can't edit the page source directly. That's a fundamental limitation of the platform.
Does custom code affect GoDaddy site speed?
It can. Heavy scripts slow down loading. GoDaddy sites aren't fast to begin with, so adding bulky embeds makes it worse. Keep custom code minimal. If you need extensive customization, GoDaddy's builder probably isn't the right tool.
