Introduction to Weebly
In the first module, Intro to Weebly, you will learn how to create a free account with Weebly, select an appropriate Weebly template, create new pages in Weebly, and assign appropriate headers to align with your topic. These will be the first steps to using Weebly.
Before we begin, we would like to give you a little background on Weebly. Weebly was created by three college friends who wanted to give people easy access to creating a website. Weebly was originally founded in 2007 and now has millions of users. It is available in 11 languages (English, French, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Turkish, Dutch, and German). (About Us, 2014)
The purpose of Weebly is to "give(s) millions of people a surprisingly easy and affordable way to create a site that is as unique as they are. With a Weebly site, people can start their own business, communicate with their clients, showcase their achievements, and be an authority on personal and professional interests. Weebly gives everyone the freedom to start a site, blog or online store that works brilliantly across computers, phones, and tablets. Offering a range of pricing options including a free plan and premium plans starting at $4/month, Weebly has everything you need to plan, build, publish and grow a site that meets your goals."
