Program for domain name registrars and hosts — Weebly introduces

Reseller program allows hosts and registrars to offer Weebly website builder tools.

weeblyWebsite builder Weebly launched a fresh program for domain name registrars and webhosts today, enabling them to offer Weebly’s website creation tool to their clients.

NameCheap and Endurance International Group (which owns a number of hosting firms and Domain.com) are initial clients of the fresh Weebly for Hosts.

Weebly for Hosts is essentially a reseller program, allowing firms to offer a simple website builder in order to sell more domains and hosting packages, as well as retain clients with a sticky product. Resellers can also offer clients paid packages as a fresh revenue source.

Weebly claims to be used by over 30 million entrepreneurs, and competes with firms such as Wix.

Former eNom VP Chris Sheridan joined Weebly earlier this year.
