# Get started with KudosWall
> Go from zero to your first embedded testimonial widget in six steps. Collect a testimonial and display it on your website — no coding knowledge required.
This guide walks you through collecting your first testimonial and displaying it on your website. By the end you will have a live widget showing approved testimonials on any page you choose.
The Free plan supports up to 5 testimonials and 1 project. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited testimonials, custom domains, and white-label branding.
Go to [kudoswall.org](https://kudoswall.org) and sign up for a free account. Once you confirm your email, KudosWall creates a default workspace for you automatically. A workspace is the container for all your projects, testimonials, and widgets.
In your dashboard, go to **Collections** and click **New Collection**. Give the collection a name — this is only visible to you — then click **Create**.
KudosWall generates a public collection page where your customers can submit testimonials. The collection customizer opens automatically, where you can adjust the headline, subheading, colors, font, and form fields.
In the collection customizer, click the **Share** tab. You'll see your collection link in the format:
```
https://kudoswall.org/collect/{your-slug}
```
Copy this link and send it to customers via email, a post-purchase message, or any other channel where you already communicate with them.
When a customer submits their testimonial, it appears in your dashboard under **Testimonials** with a status of **Pending**.
Click on the submission to read it, then click **Approve** to make it eligible for display in your widgets. Testimonials are never shown publicly until you approve them.
Approve a test submission by opening your collection link in a browser and filling out the form yourself.
Go to **Dashboard** > **Widgets** and click **New Widget**. Give your widget a name, then open it to choose a layout (grid, masonry, or carousel), pick a theme, and configure any filters.
Once the widget is created, click **Embed Code** to find your script tag:
```html theme={null}
```
Click **Copy Code** to copy it to your clipboard.
Open your website's HTML and paste the script tag just before the closing `` tag. The widget loads asynchronously and will not affect your page's load performance.
```html theme={null}
