Nels and I have a problem setting up my website. When Nels put in the http address of EllenMarshall.com and we click on that link, it takes me to GoDaddy.com site. I cannot go anywhere with this. It is their followup to get more business through additional subscriptions. Does anyone know how to bypass this or explain if we need to use another http address, etc. First, know that I am a babe in the woods on this stuff. Nels is way ahead of me there but he doesn't know how to circumvent this problem. Appreciate your input! Thanks, Ellen

Ellen, I am confirming that Willie has the right answer. I also have a GoDaddy domain name and a Weebly website. You have to change a few settings within your GoDaddy account in order to point the domain name at your Weebly website. Weebly gives you specific instructions how, just follow the link that Willie provided.
from the weebly faq page:
If so, that means your domain has not been properly pointed to Weebly. You need to follow the instructions on our Domain Setup page to point it here. There is nothing we can do on our end to fix it.
I'll try to make this brief, but this has to do with the company that is hosting you website and whether they will forward your domain name. In your case, you would like to have ellenmarshall.com forwarded to www.ellenmarshall.com . It sounds like that you purchased your domain name from godaddy but have a different company hosting your website. I have godaddy for my hosting so they automatically forward when one types cliftonmetalworks.com to www.cliftonmetalworks.com .
I duplicated what you did. If I type Ellenmarshall.com, it takes me to Go Daddy. If I type www.Ellenmarshall.com it takes me to your web site.
I typed EllenMarshall.com and went right to your web site. Nice job, meanwhile.
Ellen, I am more computer illiterate than you are but i typed in your website and it looks great. I am assuming you haven't finished the last page because it is info about someone else. One suggestion-the use of the word photos is confusing. Why not change from photo to gallery?
Are you heading down to Key West with Nels? I hope to get the chance to meet the woman who keeps Nels in line!!!
