<\/a><\/p>\nAfter attending a number of Hosting conferences this year including WorldHostingDays.USA, WorldHostingDays.Germany and HostingCon Global, one trend is clear: the number of website builders exhibiting and attending these shows is growing. Why the sudden influx of these companies at Hosting shows? The answer: website builder platforms are no longer a nice-to-have, they are a must-have and a critical offering for Web Hosts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe likely driving force behind the rise of website builders is the increasingly rapid growth of mobile. Here are some key stats:<\/span><\/p>\n\nPeople spend more than 38 hours per month on their phones and look at their phone 1,500 times per week on average.<\/span><\/li>\nApps are increasingly becoming experiences that live across multiple devices \u2014 from wearables to phones, tablets, and web applications.<\/span><\/li>\nMobile accounts for more than 33% of traffic to Weebly\u2019s network of sites. People are managing and editing their websites from their mobile device.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\nMobile is changing how individuals engage with their websites today and prompting Web Hosts to deliver mobile-ready website solutions. At Weebly, we are now seeing a publishing event (where a user publishes or updates their website) every second, reinforcing how critical websites have become in the day to day lives of our customers.<\/span><\/p>\nNick Dellis, VP Business Development and I will be speaking on Wednesday about mobile and its impact on hosts. The migration to mobile is a great thing for the Hosting industry and presents an opportunity to position your company as a mobile-web provider. We want Weebly\u2019s Reseller Program to accelerate your competitive advantage with a strategic mobile initiative.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nI look forward to seeing all of you at the conference and discussing this trend further!<\/span><\/p>\nAll the best, \nChris Sheridan \nHead of Channel Sales<\/strong> \nWeebly<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Come mid-September, the Weebly team will head to Denver for cPanel Conference.
