We’re excited to let you know our new name is going to be Yola. It’s easy to remember and pretty fun to say. It comes from the Hindi word “jhola,” which means hatch – and hatching big ideas is exactly what you do at Yola.
A new name for the same company
Our name, homepage and URL will be new, but everything else about SynthaSite stays the same. We’re still the same company with the same team. You’ll find all the sites you built and their web addresses are also staying the same. If you have questions about this change, please go to these FAQ’s. http://www.synthasite.com/rebranding-...
Here’s a homepage preview
The change is coming in a few short days, but here’s a sneak peek. After the site changes to Yola.com, you still log in just like you did at Synthasite.com. In the meantime, you may want to create a new bookmark for www.yola.com.

We hope to see you very soon at yola.com!

I think that this change is going to benefit the NEW YOLA branded Synthasite with making it easier for all those millions of site builders yet to come... Additionally it answered many members concerns about such a long and difficult to remember name. Good job on addressing the concerns of us members...
I cannot wait to see where this goes...
P.S. Good job on addressing the F.A.Q. page to assure us that nothing has changed but the name... That is great to know because this can only make our experiences that much better...

We got a loud and clear message from our customers that you loved most things about SynthaSite except the name, because it was clumsy and difficult to spell. The last thing we wanted was our name getting in the way of all the great things about our service! So we did something about it!
I am sure most people will just love Yola (I know I do!) and for some it might take a little getting used to. But as everything else about Yola will be totally familiar I am sure everyone will soon feel right "at home".
Let us know if you have any questions or concerns. If they are not addressed in the FAQ's we will do our best to address them here.

And thanks very much for the offer the other day, Monique.
Sorry if I sounded abrupt and unappreciative.

How soon do you think the option of switching over to a Yola subdomain will occur? I have yet to tell people about my site and would love to be able to tell people to go to my yola site!

The format of the sitebuilder where you work on your site will stay the same and the domain name that you bought will still work.
The only thing that is changing is our name and the layout of our homepage.
I'm sorry you feel upset about this.

All subdomains will remain .synthasite.com. In the beginning you will only be able to publish to a SynthaSite subdomain or a custom domain name. We're working on the ability to publish to additional subdomains in the future. Once these options are introduced you will be able to make use of them if you wish, or keep your synthasite subdomain forever, if you prefer to do so.
For more detailed information, please see: http://www.synthasite.com/rebranding-...
If you have any further questions about this issue or any other aspect of building your website, please do not hesitate to contact us.
