Weebly is an easy way to build a website of which you can be proud, but that doesn’t mean a little guidance can't make it even easier.
All the basics you need in order to put together your first (and second, third, fourth, even seventeenth) site can be found here in the Beginner's Guide. Take a few minutes to read through it and you’ll be an expert in no time.

Select a Theme
The first step to create a site is to select a theme. Weebly has well over a hundred themes to choose from. You can look over them by scrolling down the "Choose a Theme" page.
See a theme you like? Then you can click right on it to select it.
We know it can be a little overwhelming to choose exactly which theme you want before you've even started working on your site, but don't fret as you can very easily change the theme later (and we'll show you how). For now just find a theme that looks good and select it.

After you pick a theme you'll be asked to give your site a title. If you don't have a title in mind yet, just think of a temporary title; much like the theme, the title can be easily changed later on.
Next you'll choose your site's address (also called a domain). This isn't particularly important until you've finished your site and Published it, so if you don't already know which domain you want to use the simplest thing to do is to select a free subdomain of Weebly.com using the first option. Much like the theme and the title, this is yet another part of the site that's easy to change, and we'll cover domain names in more detail later in this guide.
All done with the initial setup; you're now ready to start creating your site!
