This looks fantastic, just what my company was looking for to quickly develop websites for the small business clients we deal with. They all want a CMS, but the value proposition just isn't there for us for a $2,000 project that requires all custom design work.

Nice work! Signed up immediately.

Wow, this is pretty huge. There's a big gap between designers and developers particularly in the smb market. Youll have designers that don't know how to develop make brochure-style sites that business owners don't know how to develop. Or you'll have developers make an editable site that looks like crap. If you want both you have to pay a lot of money.

For designers Weebly now takes the place of the developer and gives the designer the ability to make a great looking site that is easy to maintain and manage.

This is genius and is going to be very big.

"Weebly powers around 2% of sites on the web" – wow, really? I did some quick Googling, but couldn't find the survey. Someone got it handy?

Thanks David, but I actually still don't see it on there. No biggie; it's just such an impressive stat that I want to see it with my own eyes :)
