Good day Weeblies!

My name is Steve, and I am part of a company that specializes in water-based paints, stains, and wood finishes. We have been in the business for over 30 years, (I've been here for about three) and up until I showed up, our online presence was borderline non-existent and the site we had was painfully outdated. I came in as a salesman and manufacturing lead, but as luck would have it, I have a degree in graphic design.

I immediately went to work on rebranding the company and getting our face in a few more places. It's been great working with Weebly, and our site, while simple, is constantly evolving. I love the simplicity of Weebly editing because I don't have too much time to spend (nor knowledge for…) tweaking code on the website.

I’m excited to see this community build up and become a great suppository of knowledge and experience for those of us who love the creativity!

Hello. I just built a site for our church. That's my first site with weebly. You can see it at http://www.medwaybaptist.org My tip for the day is to use the blog as a sermon page for your church. Our church was with another company for the website that had a pre-built sermon page. When I hinted that I might be moving to another service, for much less cost, they said something like , "You'll not find a church speific sermon page template anywhere but with us, we are focused on churches." Well, I did and it works better than their template. The weebly blog auto archieves by month, and could include some advance tagging. I've not done the tagging yet.

Hello and thank you Erin and thank you to Weebly for creating the Community.

I almost joined a competitor because I really liked their Community support.  But Weebly was just so much easier to use that I decided to go with Weebly.  I'm realy glad I did.  And I'm really, really, glad that I did now that Weebly has a "Community".

My name is Gary and I'm from Niagara Falls, Canada.  I'm new to Weebly and my first effort is a personal blog - mynamewasricky.weebly.com.  I have a number of other ideas that I want to pursue but I thought I'd start with the blog to test the waters with Weebly and test my ability to create a web site.

Thanks for making a great product.

Thanks!

Thanks for joining, @SOSMinistry.  Are you trying to use a domain name purchased elsewhere with your Weebly site?

Hi,

I've never made a website but I was looking at homestead and a friend suggested i try weebly so here i am.

I created a free account but havent done anything besides pick a theme. Not sure if i'm going to spend the time to create the website since i have no clue what to put on it but i'm looking around in the help center and this forum.

Seems like a friendly group here so figured it was safe to say hi.

[Erin6]

Hi, @ZackZ!

We're so happy to have you!

If you have an idea for a site, you're halfway there! You may want to start by making a quick list of 5 things that relate to your additional idea for the site. Brainstorming is a great method for getting motivated to work on your site.

Just let us know if you need some help!

Thanks, and enjoy your day!

[Darieal]

Hello all, Darieal here. 

Finally, I've chosen to seek the help and assistance from the community. but first, let me say that after reading a lot of the introductions, I'm almost embarrassed to go any further and to share my site, however, www.MrSuttonHelpsHomeowners.com.

I've viewed  a lot of the sites & am stunned on what is possible. Anyway, I've been with Weebly for a little while now and I'm very comfortable with using the platform. Started with another provider and found Weebly and have been hooked ever since.

Thanks, Looking forward to knowing some of you, learning from you, and at some point sharing with some of you.

Hi, I'm an artist and poet who has never had a website. Just punlished my first chapbook and my sales have been at poetry readings primarily, plus Facebook contact and my paintings have been sold at shows only.

I have no idea wher on this site I go to create a site. 

[TinHeadNed]

Greetings Webmiesters....

I have to say I'm very happy with Weebly and also WebFire themes. My website is at 90% launch ready and about to start an SEO and Marketing campaign.  I'm beyond impressed with what I've been capable of producing with my limited knowledge. Special thank you to Weebly and community contributors. I was able to get rid of some pesky glitches thanks to all of you.  If you have a second drop by and visit. Let me know what you think. Constructive critisism is always welcome.

Reading back over all of these introductions, I'm so glad to have everyone here during the first year of the Weebly community! It's truly been great getting to know everyone through your community posts.

I look forward to many more years worth of friendly introductions!

Enjoy your day,

Hi I'm Kat, I wanted to know how well the community is doing with their e-commerce shops on Weebly. I have a variety of art products, a book, DVD, nature related products and a consulting service connected to the products. I chose to go slowly and build up my own buyers rather than go with a complicated, SN connected art-product site. What have some of your experiences been. I would like to connect to another online seller. My site is katsblissjournal.org

Hi Guys

My name's Kevin and my Thai business partner (Anna) and I are setting up an Insurance and Business Consultancy company here in Thailand.

I have been involved in a number of diverse businesses in my 13 years here and have found that if you want something doing well; you either pay top money or do it yourself. (especially websites built for the expat business community)

So, here we are - learning to build our own website - I am still waitng for my first email to the Weebly help centre to be answered and 'am hoping maybe you guys will have the time to be a friend to a couple of newbies.

Kind Regards and Many Thanks

Kevin
