* Sitebuilder Websites are Responsive and Mobile Friendly (UPDATE)

Have you received emails or phone calls saying your website is not responsive or mobile friendly? If so, please ignore them. These messages are simply trying to frighten you into paying for something you already have with our Sitebuilder website hosting system.

Today's plethora of desktop, laptop, and mobile devices offer varying screen sizes, orientations, browsers, and operating systems.

* SiteBuilder Websites are NOT Affected by the Heartbleed Security Issues

Heartbleed is a flaw in OpenSSL, the open-source encryption standard used by the majority of websites that need to transmit the data that users want to keep secure. We checked with our web hosting system developers today, and SiteBuilder websites are not affected by this flaw. Here is what our system developers wrote on April 11, 2014:

"You may have heard about a new security flaw called Heartbleed which is being reported about this week. This flaw effects most websites that use SSL encryption and in particular SSL implementations that use OpenSSL. We do not use OpenSSL and our systems are not affected by this security flaw."

See these websites for more information and advice:
