Yola wants to help fuel a vibrant economy and invigorate communities across the country. So, we’re proud to announce that we are supporting Small Business Saturday® and encouraging everyone to pledge their support and shop small at their favorite local businesses this Saturday, November 26.
It’s a day dedicated to supporting small businesses, the heartbeat of our communities. With 1.5 million Facebook supporters already—plus a coalition of small business advocacy groups, public officials and private and public organizations—Small Business Saturday is a great way for all of us to help small businesses across the nation.
Local businesses need more shoppers visiting their stores and making purchases. We’re hoping you’ll visit the Small Business Saturday page on Facebook and pledge your support by clicking ‘Like.’ Then, get out there on Saturday, November 26, and support your local small businesses.
How you can get involved:
- ‘Like’ the Small Business Saturday page on Facebook to pledge your support: facebook.com/ShopSmall
- Share the Small Business Saturday page with your friends and family
- Shop at small businesses on November 26 and beyond
- If you are a small business owner, visit facebook.com/ShopSmall to get free marketing and amplification tools that could help you make November 26 your biggest sales day of the year
If millions of Americans shop small, it will be huge.

Now more choices with domain names
Many of you have told us you’re interested in making it easier for visitors to find your site, and that you’d like your site to feel professional. You can achieve both of these goals with your personal web address, also known as a custom domain.
I’m excited to let you know that we’ve expanded our domains product offering so you can more easily find a name for your site, get names with extensions other than .com, and secure your website address for years to come.
- Find a website name: Sometimes the first name that comes to mind isn’t available. To make it easier to come up with another one you like, we’ll show you a list of available options.
- End with more than .com: You can now register domains with .net, .org, .biz, and, of course, .com extensions. And we’ll automatically configure the domains for you.
- Get multiple domains: You can assign more than one domain name to your site, which will all redirect users to your primary site. This can also help visitors find you and improve search engine ranking.
- Lock in your domains: To ensure you keep your web site name for years to come, you can register your domain for up to 10 years. By doing so, you’ll save up to 20% and save yourself the hassle of renewing every year.
- Keep your registration private: When you own a domain name, your contact details are publicly disclosed via the WHOIS database, which can result in unwanted emails. With private registration, we place alternate information in the public database — so only relevant messages are forwarded and your junk email is reduced.
To take advantage of these new options, select “Buy my own domain name” when you first publish your site or “Upgrade to your own domain” when you update your existing site.
Enjoy!

Synthasite at TechCrunch40
I’m in Las Vegas at the moment, having just gone to the TechCrunch40 conference in San Francisco to demo Synthasite in the Demopit. What a day! I was running demos on my feed for 10 hours straight – it was painful! For those of you who were there, you were lucky enough to get a glimpse of the Pre-Beta preview that we had prepared. For those of you who weren’t, I’m glad to be able to offer you a video interview, below, courtesy of Shoemoney.com. I hope you will get excited to get a taste of what’s coming out in the Beta.
