Build a Club Website 4: More, More, More

We need a few more pages

Eventually your club website can grow to hundreds of pages, but to get started let's stick to four more. Click the Pages tab at the top.

Screen shot of choosing the pages tab.

That presents the "Manage Pages" tool:

Click the big Save button at the bottom right of the screen (not illustrated).
You return to "Home" - the start of your website.
So far the new page you have added is blank, but it  does exist.

Click the New Page button.

You can see that the left column lists the pages on your website so far. The new page has not got a proper name yet, so click in the Page Name box on the right and type in "How to find us".

The other options on the right may seem a little strange. We don't need to worry about them at this stage.

Repeat the process of going to the Pages tab.

This time when the window opens you find two pages listed on the left.

  • Repeat the process of making a new page and give this one the title "Coming shortly ..."
  • Repeat the process to make another new page and call it "Contact us ...".
  • Repeat the process to make another new page and call it "See our work ...".


Click the big Save button and you are shown your "Home"page and all the new pages appear in the menu on the left.

Now we have to publish the pages

Even though there is no content on our pages yet, let's get these pages up on the web ...

Screen shot of the Weebly publish button.

Near the top right of the Weebly screen is a friendly orange button marked "Publish>>". Click on it.

After a moment you see a new message:

The web address will be different, since it will show the name you chose.

Yes, you have done it!

Click on the bold link. ( In the illustration  it is: http://midlands-movies.weebly.com) and your web browser will open a new window showing you your website!

At this stage I suggest you ignore the options to tell your friends about it through Facebook, Twitter or Email.

So far you have put up on the internet a website with empty pages. In the next step, we will change that by adding text and pictures.  
Exciting?  Perhaps.
Straightforward? Absolutely.
