You may have noticed that some features in the menus are marked with a grey star in the upper left corner. Those are Pro features; features that are accessible only to website designers with a paid membership. You may choose to do this if you are serious about your website. A Pro membership also allows you to eliminate the ".weebly" from your domain, giving your site a more professional look. (Fig. 1)

A vital resource in many business websites is the "Store" menu. If you are a store looking to add an online storefront, this is the best way to do so. To start, go to the Store menu. You can then set up a storefront with product images, and options, like color and size. (Fig. 2)

Many website owners want to make money off of their site. Weebly has included Google AdSense. Google AdSense puts advertisements related to your website wherever you drag the AdSense block. AdSense then directly pays you for the space for their ad.  You could probably pay for a Pro membership with the revenue generated from Google AdSense.

Many designers encounter the same problem: they don't get enough website traffic. Weebly allows you to enter keywords that when used in a search engine, will show your site in the results. A Pro membership gives you more keywords than a free version.
