Frankly, I don’t like Weebly. It’s so DIY that it’s hard to (if possible) make a professional website. WordPress holds you back just enough so that it looks nice, but loose enough it feels like YOUR website.
I am really not a fan of Weebly. It’s so difficult to post and take care comments and stuff. At first I thought it was just that I wasn’t used to Weebly. Partly that, but also, THERE’S A REASON I started with WordPress instead of Weebly!
A blog I really like, https://twingenuitygraphics.com/blog/, did a post about this AFTER I already set it up. (Actually, they already had a post, I just read it after According to the Recipe.)
7 Reasons Weebly is Horrible
- You can’t adjust the Favicon, tagline, or to some degree, the layout.
- The “thingys” are called different. (What’s a newsletter?!)
- It’s really easy to screw things up.
- The “widgets” are different. (I have to pay to install a search bar?!)
- They’re CONSTANTLY advertising for their paid plans, which are crazy expensive
- Their Support is very limited
- It’s so eeeeeeeeeeeek or as my friend Karis would say, “it’s very squishy”
ANYWAY…
What should I do? Set up a new free WordPress site? Set up another paid-for WordPress site? Continue this site? Giving Weebly a second chance?
