8/2/2021 0 Comments Checking Out Weebly todayI have edited Weebly websites beforeBut I have never built a websitefrom scratch before. I decided I wanted to learn some new platforms. I can say I am not a huge fan of Weebly but I can see why a beginner would like it. It's annoying me at the moment because it won't let me publish it. I want to figure this out so I can write a blog here. And also so I can learn how to use Weebly better for clients. I got a little confused at first with how to publish the website. But honestly this was really pretty easy. It's definitely limiting but I want to play around with this some more to figure out what I can do with it, both for this blog and for clients. I recently wrote something on my business blog about WIX vs Squarespace. I was suprised to find out that Weebly has really fast site speed. Aside from it's limitations with design it's not that bad. What I really want to find out is if you can make a Weebly site rank well in Google. I have a client I blog for and none of his blog posts ever rank well in Google. I am trying to figure out what kind of stuff I can change to make his blog better. The first few posts I write over here are just going to be figure out out how this platform works a little better than it does. But, eventually I want to publish more blogs on Weebly. Why Weebly?Well Because Weebly's Free Okay!Not everyone wants to pay for a domain name, especially for a blog you are doing just for fun. I actually want to write some good stuff on this blog. What's the point of blogging if you're just writing crap. But because this isn't using my name just ABQ Web Girl, maybe I can have a little fun with it.
So the life of a web designer and SEO girl involves so much flipping writing. People have no idea how much writing someone who does SEO actually does. For my own blogs and my clients' blogs I spend hours making sure everything looks and sounds good. Everything is search engine optimized perfectly. For this blog I hope to have a little fun. Of course I will work on the SEO though. That I will have to do in stages. Right now I just want to get a few posts up. What is my experience so far with blogging on Weebly? I am so unimpressed. Sorry Weebly. I really want to say this is better than I thought. But from what I can see, in order for me to update my home page I have to manually add each new blog post to it. If you want to add recent posts dynamically you have to pay for a premium app in their app store. It's totally not FREE. I suppose that's why this blog is free. For now I am going to work around it because I don't really want to spend money on Weebly right now. I still want to blog here just because it's free. And to learn more about Weebly. Maybe down the road I will pay for the premium version. Right now I am just learning more about Weebly. I like having a place to talk about my web design stuff and SEO. I'll post more tomorrow.
