Weebly is closing in 67 countries - not in Switzerland. Should you migrate?

In June 2026, Square announced the shutdown of Weebly in 67 countries. Affected websites can no longer publish new pages since the end of June, they will be taken offline on September 27, and accounts will be permanently deleted on December 26.

Let's start with the good news, because it's real: Switzerland is not on the list. Nor is France, Germany, or Italy. Your Weebly website is not going to turn off this autumn. If anyone tells you otherwise to sell you something, you can hang up.

Now for the less pleasant news.

Weebly isn't dead. It has come to a standstill.

Square bought Weebly in 2018 and stopped investing in it almost immediately to focus efforts on its own tool, Square Online. Since then, the facts are hard to dispute:

• No new features for over a year
• No new themes for years
• The mobile app was removed from the App Store and Play Store
• The February 2026 layoffs at Block, the parent company, gutted the team: only a handful of engineers reportedly remain
• And now, 67 countries cut off

No one at Square has committed to a date for Europe. What we do know is that a timeline now exists somewhere, and the direction is clear.

Your website works. It will probably keep working next year, but it will never evolve again.

The real problem isn't the shutdown. It's what it costs you every day.

This is where it gets concrete, and it's the part that most Weebly site owners don't notice, because it doesn't cause any outage.

A typical Weebly website takes about three seconds to display on a mobile phone. Google considers anything over two and a half seconds a degraded experience, and takes it into account in its rankings. On mobile, a significant share of visitors leave before the page even appears.

On top of that, there are limitations that Weebly will no longer fix: no structured data for local SEO (the tiny invisible file that tells Google "this is an auto repair shop in Yverdon, open from 8am to 6pm"), no built-in SEO assistant, and very limited control over the technical details that make the difference between the first and third page of search results.

In other words: every month, your website silently loses visitors that your competitors pick up. Quietly, without displaying any errors.

What we offer

We take your Weebly site as is (your design, your colors, your text, your photos, your blog posts, your menu) and rebuild it on modern technology (Nuxt + Tailwind).

Not a redesign. Not a thirty-page questionnaire about your visual identity. Not six weeks of back-and-forth. You get your website back, much faster.

Artificial intelligence makes this possible. It reads your existing website, extracts its structure, content, and layout, and regenerates everything in a clean format. What used to take several days of manual work is now done in a fraction of the time, and we pass those savings directly on to you.

A human then reviews everything. Always. Because AI is great at transferring thousands of elements without missing one, but perfectly capable of misplacing an image or forgetting a redirect. And a forgotten redirect means your search rankings disappear - exactly the opposite of what you came for. So this review is never optional for us.

The result: a website that loads instantly

Your new site is pre-generated, page by page. When a visitor arrives, there is nothing to calculate: the page is already ready, it displays instantly. Load times typically drop from three seconds to under one.

This isn't a cosmetic detail. It means better Google rankings, fewer lost visitors, and clients who no longer leave for a competitor because your page took too long to load.

And you keep full control of your content

This is where most migrations fail, and it's the point we've dedicated the most effort to.

You chose Weebly for a reason: you can update your hours, add a photo, or publish news yourself on a Sunday evening without calling anyone. Many agencies will migrate you to superb technology where changing even a phone number later requires a quote.

We developed our own administration tool in Go, a language known for its speed and reliability. What this means for you, quite concretely: you log in, click on the text to edit, modify it, and save - just like before. Adding a page, publishing an article, changing a photo: no training, no coding, no need for us.

You gain performance. You don't lose autonomy.

And in the end, the website belongs to you

No renting, no lifetime subscription, no platform you depend on. At the end of the project, the website is yours: the pages, the content, the code, and also the backend - the custom admin tool built for you.

What this changes in practice: if you ever want to leave, you leave. Whether because you found a cheaper option, someone close to you knows web development, or simply because you're no longer satisfied with our services. We hand over the entire codebase and you can host it anywhere you want with the host of your choice. No exit fees, no negotiation, without your website becoming a hostage in the discussion.

This is precisely what you are missing with Weebly today: your site is trapped on a platform, and the day its owner decides to shut it down, you have no recourse. It wouldn't make much sense for us to offer to start over somewhere else on the same terms.

Pricing, and the Weebly discount

We work on a fixed-fee basis, announced upfront. No hourly billing, no bad surprises at the end.

And for any site migrated from Weebly, we apply an exceptional 10% discount.

(valid until September 27, 2026)

A way to acknowledge that you didn't ask for this: Square is the one abandoning the platform you built your online presence on.

What we won't tell you

A little honesty, because it will save your time as much as ours.

We won't tell you there's an emergency. Your Swiss website will not shut down this year. You have time to think, compare, and request other quotes. Please do.

We won't tell you this is for everyone. If your website is for a neighborhood club visited by twenty people who already know you, performance and SEO won't change your life. A simpler, cheaper solution exists, and we'll tell you frankly rather than selling you the service.

This migration makes sense if your website brings you clients, or should: a shop, restaurant, practice, craftsman, SMB. Where you have competitors on Google and every rank gained translates into revenue.

We won't tell you it will be pixel-for-pixel identical either. A rebuild is still a rebuild. Certain details will be different - usually better, because we fix what was clunky on mobile along the way. You will approve everything before going live.

See the result before deciding

Paste your Weebly site URL into the field below. We'll show you for free what the migrated version would look like, along with before and after speed measurements.

No commitment, no credit card required, no forced phone call. If the result doesn't convince you, you won't have spent a thing, and at least you'll know where your site stands today.

In the meantime, whatever you choose: download a backup of your Weebly site (Account Settings, then My Data, then Download My Data) and check that your domain name is registered with an independent provider. Five minutes today, a lot less trouble one day.
