If you’re looking for a guide on how to create a contact form for your website, consider reading this documentation. 123FormBuilder is a professional web form builder that not only creates user-friendly contact forms, but also covers them with many features that you might find useful. Know that you can build a contact form with the forever free plan (Basic), while the paid plans enable more advanced features for your contact form.To create a contact form, sign up for the 123FormBuilder service and follow the steps below:
Sign up or log into 123FormBuilder with your account credentials. If you’ve just signed up, you’re already logged in. If you already had an account, enter your username and password on the login page.
Click Create New Form on the top left side of your dashboard, under the header.
You can select a form template or you can create the form from scratch. If that is the case, select Blank Form. Click the canvas to proceed.
You are now in the Form Editor, where you can adjust the form fields and form layout (if you’ve selected a form template) or add your form fields to the form.
There are three types of fields: basic fields , specific fields and other fields . To add a field to the form, select it and drag it to the layout. Hold the click on the field while placing it on the form. You can drag and drop the fields that are already included in the form layout if you want to change the order in which they appear. By hovering on the sides of the form, you can adjust the layout and design of the form. You can also add multiple fields on one row and adjust their sizes.
You may also change the design of the form by clicking on Edit – Themes or the pallet button in the right corner of the screen next to the Preview button.
When you are done creating and designing the form, switch to the Settings section.
The Settings section has many options that you may use, but in this article we are going to set up the email notification that we receive and that the form user will receive after the contact form is submitted.
The email address associated to the 123FormBuilder account is automatically the recipient of the email notifications for each created form (My email variable). You may change this by hovering over the email address and clicking it to remove it. You can also add new recipients by using the plus sign button and create branches based on certain conditions (Add rules).
In Settings – Thank you page select what should appear after the user submits the form.
Finally, hit the Publish tab on top to get the publishing code. 123FormBuilder is packed with many publishing option, but let’s assume we’re going to use the embed code – JavaScript.
In Publish, click on Embed Code and select Javascript
Copy the Javascript code and paste it within the source code of your contact web page.
And there you have it!
A great contact form that will allow your audience to communicate with you fast and easy. And as you’ve seen, no coding skills were needed. If you want to build more advanced contact forms, feel free to browse around your 123FormBuilder account and create new contact forms.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us!
Why is there no option to create an “Click Here to Apply” button? Having the code in our ad seems confusing to our applicants.
Hello Randy,
Our sincere apologies for the delayed reply. Please go to the Publish section of your form -> Embed Code -> Link to Form -> Image or Text. There you can add your own text or add an image for the button.
Thank you!
Very Interesting. This is what I needed. I was in touch with George of your company already. He has the scope of what I need.
Nice
