I'm not sure if anyone uses weebly these days. Back in my college, when I was running a solo business, weebly hosted my website and I proudly printed the site url on my business card. It was the same time when Wix had flash based design. And when Flash vanished one would expect similar fate for Wix. But instead Weebly vanished which is a shame. Squarespace is something that Weebly could have built. But it's ironic now to see Weebly joining Square which is another bunch of missed opportunities. The touted Jobs 2.0 Jack Dorsey never seemed to have turned around it.
- SwellJoe 9y agoI'm not sure you're talking about the same company as everyone else. Weebly, AFAIK, always had consistent growth; there was no time in the past where you could say they were doing better than today, I don't think.
- toephu2 9y agoI'm pretty sure valuation-wise they were doing better in 2014 than today... https://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2014/04/22/weebly-valued-at-455-million-amid-website-building-boom/ https://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2014/04/22/weebly-valued-at-455...
- SwellJoe 9y agoIs valuation what really matters? I mean, I understand from an investment perspective and from the perspective of people who were hired at that time that valuation matters. But, from a business health perspective, doesn't number of users and revenue matter (a lot) more? Aren't they up from 2014 on those metrics?
