Ok, so I made this website on moonfruit and I was wondering if anybody know of a way I can download it so I can host it else where. Please help if you can.

    Hi,
    I've never heard of Moonfruit, but had a quick look and it pretty much looks like you can't download it. I guess that's the way they get your money. They let you build the site for free, but you have to host it with them.

    Not sure how much work you put into building it, but if you can stand the hassle of building it again, go do it with Weebly. Once it's done you can download it and upload it to a host of your choice. There is a link in the footer but in actual fact, that's easily removed using any HTML editor.

    Sorry I can't be of more help.

    Yeah, it's a lot like the old Yahoo Site Builder, and Lycos, and all those others before they gave up on it.

    There's no way to download from something like this because it's all server-side. Unless you had access to FTP, then there's no way to get it.

    You could do as sanssecret said and recreate it on another site similar to Moonfruit.
    You could also ask a designer to recreate it into a regular website for easier transfer for later.

    I may be able to do it if you'd like to choose that option.
