Weebly has four premium pricing plans as we have compared in our earlier article. Connect, Pro, Business (Professional) and Business Plus (Performance) are the premium plans in addition to a free plan.

I can’t find a Weebly plan called “Business”, just “Professional” and “Performance”. Is this Business plan actually called “Professional” on the Weebly site? All the information I can find on this says digital goods can only be sold on a “Business plan”. My business is focused on digital goods, e-books especially. Which one should I choose? Professional or Performance? Please help!
Weebly plans are different based on geographical locations. Maybe you need Performance plan for selling digital goods. Below two articles can help you in understanding the features:
