- Inserting the code above will make the first four (4) parent (top-level) menu items of your Weebly website non-clickable. You would only want to do that if you have drop down or pop out sub-menu pages relating to parent menu items.
- Important: make sure there is no comma ',' after the 'a' before the '{' bracket.
It is optional whether you insert a space before the '{' bracket.
- Often the first parent menu item is HOME with no sub-menus. Having used the code above, to make HOME clickable again remove the code below.
.wsite-nav-0 a,

- The code below makes the third (3rd) parent menu item non-clickable. All other parent menu items will be clickable. Remember, the 1st parent menu item is numbered '0'.
#nav-wrap .wsite-nav-2 a {
pointer-events: none;
}

- To make the fifth parent menu item non-clickable you would add the code below before the { bracket.
.wsite-nav-4 a

- To find the main-style.css file follow this path in your Weebly website editor:
DESIGN > Edit HTML/CSS > CSS > main-style.css
- Add your code (as above) at the very bottom of the main-style.css code by scrolling down in the right window.
- The third parent menu, 'Web Services' on this website has been made non-clickable using this method - using the last code above.

We acknowledge Domz who offers a more technical explanation of this methodology for creating non-clickable Weebly parent menu items.

So, why do some struggle with their Weebly?
A core issue, Terry notes, is that many small business Weebly owners and users are quite time poor. When they run into a website development issue they often give up when the solution is relatively simple. Issues we have been able to assist with include (with relevant links): getting header graphics sorted, tweaking the new and powerful Weebly eCommerce system, improving links to a payment processor and creatively adding documentation like product lists.
We can help troubleshoot and develop your Weebly website. Whether its advice, detailed instruction or asking us to do some hands on work; Value Websites are available to assist you. In working with us you will work with a Company that has designed and developed 50+ Weebly websites. We consider ourselves amongst the most experienced and knowledgeable Weebly developers in New Zealand.
Finally, a piece of valuable free advice.
One of the most under-rated components of a Weebly website is their Blog component. This very user-friendly facility is a great Weebly website back door to good search engine rankings. While we rank well in Google search engine first pages for a number of search terms (especially for Weebly related terms), a good news blog post - like this - will quickly rank on Google and other SEs. This will provide your website with a valuable entry point from which searchers will visit, explore and respond to some of your web pages. One of the reasons why we regularly write VW News posts.
And it costs you nothing (but a little time) to discuss your Weebly website issue with Terry.

SEO begins by paying attention to the internal options you have to build your website for search engine visibility.

In our experience, and we have made the mistake too, we can be temped to take a deep breath when we have finished putting the words and images together to create our website, without paying needful attention to SEO.
Many of us are using content management systems to develop and edit our websites. Thankfully most of these do assist us greatly to get SEO started at least. However, we still need to complete the detailed work:
- checking that the key terms in the text and tags of each web page are consistent with the page's title and description tags;
- in other words, the meta title, description and keyword tags need to accurately reflect the page content;
- having unique meta tags for each page - often I find that a set of universal meta tags are applied to all pages which is better than nothing, but not enough;
- ensuring that every image has an alt tag not only to advise those who have turned images off or who are blind, but also to added relevant content to the web page - assuming the image has something to do with the page subject;
- making sure that Head tags are there containing main key terms for the web page - another way of telling the search engines what we think are the key terms for this page;
- linking your website to Google Analytics and Webmaser Tools to ensure that you can check down the track periodically that your website is performing as you wish;
- working to ensure that clients and others interested link to your website from theirs, especially if their content is in any way relevant to yours, offering to reciprocate by placing a link to their site on yours - this is called back linking;
- if possible, trying to get back links from Google Page Rank (PR) 4+ websites to your web site which will contribute to your page rank growing and you getting more page one listings for your key terms.
If you pay attention to getting these SEO factors done well, you be well on the way to making your website work for you as the marketing and promotional tool it should be.
By the way, why don't we swap links on our websites. Value Websites has PR4 with Google, so it may well be worth your while. Place the code below on your website and let us know. We will respond by linking back to you. Happy to do this as a freebie - win: win for both of us!

- Usability - improving user experience so users stay longer and explore deeper into your web and abandon making a desired response less often ;
- SEO effectiveness so that you have page one ranking in search engines for more key terms;
- Adwords campaign responses through choosing effective key terms and testing them to achieve better performance;
- Business and website profitability.
Recently we have been thinking a lot about website valuations and the factors that contribute to an increasingly valuable website asset. As the web matures and as web owners consider selling their website/s and businesses with a website, our focus is moving more to ensuring that we work with web owners to establish and achieve both short and longer term goals. It is not just about getting a website up and running and optimised for immediate traffic, service delivery and sales. It is also about building in sustainability through testing, tweaking, editing, rewriting, improving SEO and generally taking a broad approach to improving the web/site asset value.
Two resources we offer clients are:
Todd Malicoat - 8 Jan 2013
This is a summary and brief review of a relatively recent (Jan. 2013) blog post about considerations that a web developer and a business owner should have in mind when building a new website. When planning a website these factors, if heeded, may make a significant difference to the sale price achieved at some future date. Value Websites recommends that if this summary whets your appetite for more, you read Malicoat's full article. The headings below are Malicoat's.
General thoughts on website appraisal
Malicoat begins with Rule #1 – "You can’t sell potential." Take the word out of your vocabulary, he asserts. Cringe when you hear it from others. Most sites currently sell for between 12-36 months of revenue, or a 1-3x annual revenue multiple - you’ll be lucky to get a 3x multiple!
