- **Preview Before Publishing**: Always preview your page before publishing to ensure that your text appears as intended across different devices.

- **Content Updates**: Inform users about changes or updates related to your offerings by posting announcements directly on your landing pages.

=== Troubleshooting section ===
If you encounter any issues while using the '''Text block''', consider the following solutions:

- **Styling Not Applying**: Ensure that you are saving your changes by clicking the '''checkmark''' button. Sometimes, lack of visibility in the editor may cause edits to appear unresponsive.
- **Text Not Displaying**: Check that the visibility settings of your page are correctly set. If a page is in 'draft' status, published changes will not reflect visibility.
