Weebly - Free Website Builder for All by Jeremy C W
Weebly - Free Website Builder for All
By Jeremy C W
Weebly is a free website builder that allows anybody to build their own websites quickly and with ease. It is a very popular platform, and has more than 6 million registered users for one very simple reason - Weebly is a free website builder, and it's darn easy to use.
This free website builder allows you to build beautiful websites in a very short period of time - even if you do not have any programming background. If you have aspirations to create business websites, e-commerce websites, blogs or just general interest websites, Weebly is an ideal free website builder for you.
Free Versus Paid (Pro)
Yes it's true, Weebly does have a paid feature where once you sign up for its Pro plan, you are granted access to more interesting website builder tools. But fear not, you don't actually need the paid version of Weebly to build awesome websites. The free version of Weebly is more than enough to get the job done.
Free Features
So what tools do you have access to under Weebly's free website builder program? Let's just say you get ALL the basic tools, except for the following:
� Video player (but you can get around this by uploading your video on to YouTube as Weebly's free version allows you to play YouTube videos)
� Audio player
� Embedded document - allowing you to embed documents such as PDF to your web pages
� Password protection for selected web pages
� 10 websites per account (but you get 2 free accounts under the free account anyway)
� Increased file size limit
� Visitors could upload files to your Weebly website
� Removed advisement from Weebly - the free website building version does have a very small snippet of Weebly advertisement at the footer, but not very intrusive in my opinion
As you can see, Weebly's free website builder program is fully capable of allowing you to build a functional website. Should you need the tools that the paid version provides, you can always upgrade later once you are satisfied with Weebly's free website builder.
Full HTML / CSS Control
One of the best parts about this free website builder is that Weebly does not restrict you in how you want to design your website. By granting you full control of Weebly HTML and CSS access, if you are savvy with coding, you can pretty much create any design you want that suits your website.
If you don't have the necessary expertise to play around with the codes to create your ideal design, there are independent Weebly templates providers that serve up some really beautiful and creative templates that could be integrated with your free or paid Weebly account in a matter of seconds.
Conclusion
Weebly is one of the best free website builder in the market today, for all the reasons provided above. It's very intuitive to use, and its simple drag-and-drop platform has effectively created a way for everybody to build websites in a very quick and painless manner.
Some users may complain that the design of the basic templates provided by Weebly is a bit plain. As such, I invite you to check out Weebly themes provided by DivTag. DivTag serves up a broad range of beautiful website templates compatible with Weebly that will really enhance your website.

Easy Website Builder - Drag and Drop Website Builders Make Getting Your Business Online Easy by Henry Black
In the not too distant past, in order to create a website for your business and get it online, you would have to learn HTML code, and build your website from scratch. Then, once your site was finished, you would have to upload the page to your website using a somewhat arcane FTP program. This kept many people from being able to explore their business ideas online. Today, however, it's possible to find an easy website builder that will bring powerful tools for easily creating professional looking websites into the hands of the most casual users.
It's possible with newly available software to create a professional looking website from start to finish in five minutes or less without writing a single bit of HTML code. By dragging and dropping pre-built blocks to create a layout, these site creation tools allow new and even experienced Internet marketers focus their time and energy on marketing instead of HTML design and coding. This allows them to get their business online quickly so that they can see a return for their efforts sooner.
Features that you should look for an online website creation package include the following:
* Predefined layouts to speed up the design process-with this feature, there's no need to start with a completely blank page.
* A library of prebuilt banners covering a wide variety of markets. Again, new marketers frequently don't have the resources or the ability to create their own custom graphics for website headers. Ideally, this software should provide an easy path for these people.
* Drag and drop layout. The software should allow users to build the structure of their website using drag-and-drop building blocks as opposed to a selection of predefined formats. This will allow new users to easily design their sites, while giving experienced marketers the flexibility to create just exactly the look that they want.
* The ability to seamlessly manage the addition, placement, and resizing of images. Users should be able to add images either from their hard drive or from the web, and the software should intelligently handle the rest. The software should handle other media files such as video or screen shots just as seamlessly.
* Image storage. The software ideally should allow users to store image files so that they could be used on multiple projects if needed. This would help keep users from needing to find images on their local hard drive or on the Web more than once.
* Simple page and site duplication. It should be very simple for a user to create a template using the software and then easily duplicate this page over and over to create his site. Ideally, the software should also make it easy to copy an entire site in case the user wishes to reuse the layout in a different niche.
* Finally, an easy website builder should handle the process of uploading the final web page to the Web host. This eliminates the need for learning and using a complicated FTP program. It also allows for changes to the website to become "live" very rapidly.
