Let’s Weeble…

Weebly: Features user-friendly drag and drop features Is versatile: you can blog, do slideshows and upload docs Is free Allows you to have more than one website on one account Is free

To get started, go to weebly.com Under “Sign Up Free,” Enter your: 1.Full name 2. (you must know your password to this !) 3.Password (one that you’ll remember)

I recommend choosing “Site” You will still be able to blog if you want to.

Theme: Choose one but don’t worry… you can always change it later if you don’t like it (or bore easily).

Choose your domain name. It’s free as long as you use a Subdomain. To register a Domain costs money.

There are headings along the top. Choose “Build” to get started.

Basic: Begin to add elements to your page. Drag and drop. Take your time dropping. Hover over the space and watch – it shows where it will place the element.

Structure: Continue to add elements to your page. I haven’t used button or search box, but often use the divider or spacer to keep my work neat.

Media: Continue to add elements to your page. I haven’t used HD Video or Audio yet, but often use Document and Youtube.

Media: Continue to add elements to your page. I haven’t used any of this yet but am psyched, yes psyched, to use the survey or forum features.

Publishing: Any changes you make will be saved but will not appear online until you click publish.

Publishing: Once it’s done publishing, it will show you your website’s name, it’ll ask you if you’d like to share on social media and it’ll remind you that you can buy a domain name (if you want). Click the little blue x to exit. Students sometimes panic because “it didn’t save!!!!” when it really has saved, but just has not been published yet If in doubt, hit publish!
