Simple website builder now owned by Square. Small businesses needing the simplest possible web presence, but these limitations push teams toward modern alternatives.
Being sunset in favor of Square Online — limited future
This is the most common reason teams migrate away from Weebly. Remix eliminates this issue entirely.
Very limited customization options beyond templates
With Remix, built on web standards — forms, headers, and http conventions.
Poor SEO capabilities compared to other builders
Modern architectures like Remix are designed to avoid this from the ground up.
No content export or migration tools available
After migrating, you'll no longer need to worry about this — Remix takes a fundamentally different approach.
Full-stack React framework built on web standards. Built with JavaScript/TypeScript (React), it's full-stack web applications that benefit from web-standard patterns.
Built on web standards — forms, headers, and HTTP conventions
Nested routing with parallel data loading (no waterfalls)
Excellent error handling with error boundaries at every route
Works on any JavaScript runtime (Node.js, Deno, Cloudflare Workers)
Remix is open-source and free to use. You own your code and data with no vendor lock-in. Deploy to any host that supports JavaScript/TypeScript, or use managed platforms like Vercel and Netlify for zero-config deployments.

A detailed breakdown of how your Weebly content maps to Remix
What may need manual attention
Visual layouts and custom animations built in Weebly's editor will need to be recreated in Remix. The content and text transfers, but the visual design is platform-specific.
Migrate your content in three simple steps
Enter your Weebly site URL — LeaveWP connects automatically.
Select Remix as destination and choose content options.
Download your migrated content or preview it in your browser.
Migrating from Weebly to Remix makes the most sense if you're experiencing being sunset in favor of square online — limited future or outgrowing Weebly's architecture. Remix is best for full-stack web applications that benefit from web-standard patterns.
You should migrate if: your Weebly site is slow, your hosting costs are climbing, you need more control over your code, or you want to adopt a modern JAMstack architecture.
You might want to stay if: your Weebly site benefits from extremely simple to use — anyone can build a basic site and you don't have JavaScript/TypeScript developers on your team. Weebly is genuinely easy to use, and that simplicity has value.
The migration itself is straightforward with LeaveWP — enter your Weebly URL, select Remix, and download your content. The more important question is whether Remix's architecture fits your team's skills and your project's long-term needs.
