Tried My Hand at Weebly…
November 10, 2007
and you can see the results at http://goldenretrieverpuppies.weebly.com.
The good news is that you can add your affiliate link/product banners. The bad news is, you’d better have some time to kill. Man that thing moves slowly! It is constantly loading even when I’m not doing anything. It’s not completely intuitive (you didn’t expect me to review the instructions did you?), but still easy enough to figure out.
I still plan to make a few simple sites to see how they work for backlinks and traffic as the site becomes more popular. I know.. where’s the video? I wanted to record my 1st attempt with the Weebly site builder but with the strain it was putting on Firefox and the effect it had on my attempt at opening a text editor, I knew there was no way I’d get a screen capture to work effectively.
Maybe I’ll try installing the script on my own domain and server (I think I saw that was possible), but I can’t really see the point. Though it may be good for someone brand new to website design, it left me wanting to have more flexibility. So I think I’ll stick it in my ‘traffic sources’ category.
