Overall Satisfaction with Weebly

Weebly is used within my program to create portfolios for teachers and students. The free web hosting and customizable elements are extraordinarily helpful for students and teachers alike. The program allows one to make something truly representative of themselves. It could also be used to create a class website or way to share other information.
  • Customizable, allows for creativity and expression.
  • Secure hosting, data and analytics are very helpful tools as well.
  • Free hosting also is a huge draw.
  • Weebly's web development integration could be smoother.
  • An educational license would be a nice improvement.
  • Getting started tutorials could be implemented.
  • Allowed me to create a portfolio.
  • Helped me make my name known.
  • Allowed for individualization.
I liked the features in Weebly more so than what Wix had to offer. It was a good balance of customizability and user-friendliness. I also liked Weebly's given templates better than what either Wix or Google Sites had to offer. Google sites were very open-ended and required more hardcoding to create the same effects as Weebly.
Weebly could be very useful for long-term projects and classroom websites. They don't have a ton of interactivity though, so better integration with Google Suites would be helpful. Weebly is very easy to work with once you have played around with it a bit, so tech-savvy students could get a lot out of it.
