How do I start building my site with Weebly?

Weeblys clear interface makes it easy to build a fantastic website, even without any experience, but a little extra guidance never hurts.

1. The first step is to choose a theme for your new website.

What's a theme? It's a combination of the code, colors, and general structure that will become the foundation of your website's appearance. All Weebly themes are responsive, which means they'll automatically adapt to the best fit for any screen size, so you can be sure your site will look great on different mobile devices, tablets and computers.

Themes in the gallery are grouped by different types of websites, and you can switch between them using the links at the top. Any theme can be used to build any type of website, so go ahead and choose one from the blog category for your online store if you see one you like. Not sure which theme to choose? No problem - you can always pick a new one later, so for now just find one to get started with.

Click on the theme image to see a larger preview.  If it doesn’t fit, click on Close to return to browsing the theme gallery.

2. Once you find a them you like, click Start Editing to go into the site editor.

Once you've selected a theme, you'll be prompted to choose your site address. If you already own a domain name or have something in mind, go ahead and type it in and then click continue. If you're not sure what to pick, you can use the X in the upper right to close the window for now. You can come back to this step at any time by going to the Settings tab.


3. Fill your site with your text, images and other elements.

When you have chosen a theme you can start filling your site with content by dragging and dropping things in place.
