Website Creation: An exploration of content management platforms: Weebly

This guide seeks to compare some of the mainstream website content management platforms. Each platform is listed with a list of different features available, available plans, and any other notable information about the tool.

Introduction

This is the icon for Weebly.com.

Weebly.com or education.weebly.com is a free and subscription based content management platform. Weebly was originally created to be an easy to use and functional website building tool for small businesses and for professional websites. Weebly also has a segment of reduced price and education based templates at their education.weebly.com site. This portion of Weebly is specifically intended for classrooms and for educational projects. However, the tool can be used effectively for personal and professional websites as well.
