[QUOTE="Don Kondra, post: 476192, member: 17688"] Over three years ago I fell for the old "on sale" with ipage.com, signed up for three years and purchased a domain name from them. It wasn't long after that I discovered weebly.com which offers pretty well the same thing for free. Both sites require an additional purchase for a domain name. When my ipage web site came up for renewal just recently (at the regular rate), I felt it was simply easier to pay than move all the information to weebly. To be clear, my main work is furniture making so it was worth it to me to have a domain name, ie., donkondra.com I am a part time product photographer so having a domain name reading - donkondraproductphotography.[B]weebly[/B].com is not a big deal. The "free" part means they get to insert their name in your domain address. My work for photography comes mainly from word of mouth and it is adequate that I have a web presence without having a unique domain name. Both sites use the same drag and drop type creator. You basically pick a theme and drag and drop elements on to a page and populate them with text/images. Give weebly a try, what can you lose ? :) If you like it, you can decide later if you want to spend the additional money on a domain name. With all due respect, sites like wordpress are not on the same level. Cheers, Don [/QUOTE]
