You can invite other people to edit your Weebly site by following these instructions:
In the Settings tab select Editors
Add the email address of the person you want to add NB: always check with the person first before using the email address you usually correspond with … a lot of us use different emails for logging into online accounts!
If you have a Pro account, you can select different levels of permissions, otherwise choose Admin
Click Save Editor
Your invitees will receive an email with a special link to access your site using their own login
If your invitee doesn’t receive that email, you can also send them the Invitation URL from your list of editors in the Settings tab
If you would prefer to manage things all in one place, you can transfer your domain name(s) from your existing registrar to Accurate Expressions.
Steps to transfer your domain
Unlock Domain: Log in to your current registrar (e.g., GoDaddy, Namecheap, MelbourneIT) and find the domain settings to unlock the domain transfer lock.
Get Authorization Code: Request the EPP code or transfer key (sometimes called a “domain password”) from your current registrar.
Confirm Contact Details: Ensure your contact details with your current registrar are correct. In particular, ensure you have access to the admin email address for your domain.
Contact Us: Once you have completed these steps, get in touch and we will handle the rest!
You probably took advantage of Squarespace’s free domain for the first year (good choice!), and now you’d like to transfer it to another registrar (hopefully me!). The easiest way to do this is to click the Contact Rae button and let me handle it for you, but if you’d prefer to do it yourself, follow the steps in this article in the Squarespace Help Centre:
The following instructions are specific to WordPress sites hosted by Accurate Expressions. If your WordPress site is hosted with someone else, please refer to their documentation regarding how to create a staging site.
Click Invite and enter the email address of the person you’d like to invite.
Click Access and select the role you’d like to assign to this person from the table below (if you’re adding me, please add me as an Editor … more info on Channel permissions role types here)
You can invite people to collaborate on your Wix site, and assign roles and permissions based on their expertise. A full overview is available in the Wix Help Center.
Invite a collaborator
To add a collaborator to your Wix website, follow these steps:
From you site’s dashboard, click on Settings > Roles & permissions
Click the blue Invite Collaborators button
Enter your collaborator’s email address
Select the checkbox next to the relevant role/s (if you’re adding me, please select Admin)
Click Send Invite (you can skip the next screen that says “Let us know how you’re connected”, or you can select the appropriate option and click Done! If you’re adding me, you can select An agency or freelancer)
Your collaborator will then receive an invitation from Wix (wix-team@notifications.wix.com)
When you set up your email address on your different devices, you have to choose IMAP or POP3. These days, you’re mostly choosing IMAP so you can access your emails from any and all of your devices. But what is IMAP? This video from Mailtrap explains it all brilliantly …
These are their 10 steps … and you can read the full article for more information on each step:
1. Don’t open mail from strangers
2. Make sure your devices are up to date
3. Use strong passwords
4. Use two-factor authentication
5. Don’t click on strange-looking links
6. Avoid using unsecured public Wi-Fi
7. Back up your data regularly
8. Be smart with financial information
9. Educate your family
10. Avoid sharing personal information
I personally also recommend using Malwarebytes to protect your devices. You can install a free version, but the Premium version will give you better protection for less than ten bucks a month. NB: I’m not affiliated with Malwarebytes, just a happy customer!
Ahhhhh fonts … welcome to the rabbit hole!! Nothing speaks clearer than a good font. And nothing makes you go ewwww more than a bad font (I’m talking to you Comic Sans and Papyrus, though even they have their place).
There are thousands of font libraries out there … here are a couple of my favourite. Some are free, some are not. Make sure you purchase the correct license before using any font anywhere.
If your website and emails are hosted by Accurate Expressions, your mailboxes are configured by default with a predefined quota of 1024MB (1GB) disk space. You can modify the disk space quota as needed (more info at SureSupport).
NB: the maximum size for your mailbox is 10GB on the Economy Plan and 15GB on the Business Plan.
If your mailbox reaches a certain percentage of its quota (90% by default), you will receive the following notification from SureSupport:
Subject: Mail over quota notification
Sender: noreply@suresupport.com
Dear account owner,
Please be advised that username@domain.com e-mail account is currently using more than 90% of its space. Keep in mind that if your mailbox is full, you will not be able to receive new messages. Please clean up your mailbox in order to prevent e-mail loss.

Please be wary of scam emails! It’s not uncommon to receive a similar looking email from scammers, so it’s a good idea to familiarise yourself with the official email so you don’t get caught out.
If you receive an email that you’re unsure of, forward it to Accurate Expressions or log a ticket with SureSupport to seek clarification.
Cleaning up your Inbox
Delete old messages
The easiest way to clear space is to delete old messages from your mailbox. You can do that in your email reader, or by logging into Webmail (if you’re hosted with Accurate Expressions, access webmail by adding “mbox” to the front of your domain, eg: mbox.yourdomain.com.au).
Log into Webmail to see all the messages you have in your mailbox. Delete the ones you do not need (old, spam, and virus messages that are taking up space).
Archive your emails
If you need to keep your old messages for any reason, you may prefer to archive them. You can download messages from the server to your local computer by creating new folders on your device (best to do this on your desktop/laptop):
Outlook: create a new folder in the “On My Computer” section.
Mac Mail: create a new folder in the “On My Mac” section.
Move (or Copy then delete) any messages from your server folders to your local folders.
Items in these folders are saved only on your computer and are not synchronised with a mail server.
Save your emails as PDFs
For an even more permanent solution, you can save your messages as PDFs. Just click the Print icon and save as PDF.
