To give you a little more insight into what happened: over the past few days we've experienced intermittent, massive DDoS attacks. These types of attacks are unfortunately very difficult to defend against. We worked around the clock, trying many different defense strategies, talking to experts in the field, and purchasing new routing hardware, but were still unsuccessful in fully fending off the attacks. Yesterday we purchased and installed an expensive device specifically designed to mitigate the effects from a DDoS attack. Chances are very high that the recent problems are past us and we can continue to provide the reliable service we pride ourselves on at Weebly.
We greatly apologize for the inconvenience that these events of downtime have caused you. We take incidences of downtime very seriously and understand the impact it has on your website's credibility and reputation. Believe me, we are as frustrated as you with the recent events and want to ensure this cannot happen again. We want to sincerely thank you for your support of our service.

I wanted to post a comment and update everyone as to the reason for the downtime. Since early this morning at around 3:30am PST, we have been hit with a heavy Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack that is causing reliability issues for some sites. This is an attack where tens of thousands of computers around the world that are infected with a virus and controlled by the attacker are simultaneously hitting our servers causing a large amount of load.
If your site is currently not working, please contact support@weebly.com, as we may be able to provide a work-around solution.
We are working hard on returning the service to a 100% functional level and appreciate your understanding and support while we work on mitigating the effects of this attack.
