You can select the free plan to try out PushEngage, or choose a paid plan if you’re serious about growing your business. The paid plans come with more campaign options and the ability to build even bigger subscriber lists.

Once you’ve signed up for an account, head over to the PushEngage dashboard and go to Settings » Site Settings » Installation Settings:

PushEngage Site Settings

This is where you configure your site details and branding. Go ahead and set a logo and site URL for your push notifications. You should do this right now so that you can test your push notifications properly.

Step #2: Get the Installation Code from PushEngage

Next, you’ll need to head over to the PushEngage dashboard and get the installation code. Go to Settings » Site Settings » Installation Settings:

Add Push Notifications on Squarespace site

Depending on whether your site has an SSL certificate installed, go to either the HTTP tab or the HTTPS tab to get your installation code.

Copy this code. You’ll need it later.

Step #3: Place the Installation Code in Your Weebly Site

Log in to your Weebly account and head over to Settings » Tracking Code:

Add new code Weebly

And paste the Javascript code snippet you got from your PushEngage dashboard:

Step #5: Create a Welcome Notification

Once you’re done setting up the opt-in, your site can collect subscribers.

But how do you know if your push notifications are working properly?

We recommend that you create a welcome push notification to test if your setup went smoothly. A welcome notification is a push notification you send a new subscriber to confirm their subscription and welcome them on board. 

Head over to Settings » Site Settings » Installation Settings and configure your welcome message:

New Welcome Push Notification

Finally, head back to your site and opt for your own push notifications to test whether it’s all working smoothly.

And that’s all there is to it!

You have successfully set up push notifications on your Weebly site. It’s time to head back to your PushEngage dashboard and start creating your push notification campaigns.
