What happened to Weebly?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 4:30 am

Weebly has been around since 2004 and has been a popular website builder. In January 2017, the company announced that it would be selling its website building platform to a private equity firm for $130 million. Weebly hoped that the acquisition would help the company grow its user base and revenue. However, in November 2017, Weebly announced that it was shutting down its website building platform.

PRO TIP: Weebly has been acquired by Square and will be shutting down on April 30, 2021. All Weebly sites will be redirected to a new Square site builder.

The company cited low user adoption and low revenue as the reasons for the shutdown. Weebly has since ceased all operations.
