>> My name's Dave Beltry [phonetic] and I'm an entrepreneur.
I live out in San Francisco.
I was from Penn State here.
And my co-founders and I started what became weebly.com here in a class project.
And weebly is a service that lets people or small businesses build their own websites.
And we've been at it for about five years, like I said
and have grown our user base to about 11 million users today.
We power about 2% of the websites on the internet.
And roughly about 10% of the United States visits the weebly created website every month.
You know we're actually pretty popular among education.
Teachers use us to have a classroom blog and share you know the syllabus
and the homework assignments and the news of the class.
But of course we're also pretty popular among small business like restaurants
or you know just different shops around town that need a web presence or online businesses,
people selling things, artists, videographers,
like you know just a wide range of different use cases.
So my day to day responsibilities have evolved in a sense before, you know,
in the early days it was really focused around everything business related
and customer support and a lot of apps.
But now you know I'm really focusing on how the product works and kind of the liaison,
if you will, between the designers and engineers and I provide a lot of feedback
and actual buyer frame mockups of how features work, which is what I'm passionate about.
So I think our success in user growth is really attributed to a passion for the product
in making things very intuitive and easy and approachable, friendly in a way.
And a good product is spread to self because people, you know, they use it,
they like it and they tell their friends.
And it's pretty much, that generator is the way that we've grown to date.
It's all word of mouth and friends and just satisfaction with the product.
