If you were about to pay a website builder

You are renting your own website.

Stop paying and it disappears. That is not a hosting fee — it is rent on something you thought you bought, and it never ends.

Describe your site See real builds

Real sites in the showcase cost $0.003 to $0.010 to build.

In short

Describe the site you want, watch it get built, and own the actual files. Publish in one click, point your own domain at it, and take the whole thing elsewhere any time you like.

What it usually takes

Three bills for one website.

Most small businesses end up paying all three, and the first one never stops.

$0.003–$0.010what each cost to build, measured
The usual way
  • A builder subscription — typically $20–$60 a month, forever
  • A designer — commonly several hundred to a few thousand, once
  • A developer — commonly a few thousand, and again for changes
  • Every change later means waiting for someone, or paying again
  • Leaving means rebuilding from scratch somewhere else
Ongoing rent + one-off fees
This way
  • You describe it and watch it get built, in minutes
  • Real design decisions — a proper palette, real copy, mobile first
  • The actual code, in a repository that is yours from the first turn
  • Changes are a sentence, at any hour, without booking anyone
  • Leaving means git clone and going
$0.003–$0.010 per build · no seat fee · no credits
The right-hand costs are measured: the seven finished sites in our showcase cost between $0.003 and $0.010 each to build. Allowing generously for a dozen rounds of changes, a site like those is still under $0.15. The left-hand figures are typical published market rates and vary a great deal — check them against your own quotes.

The difference that matters later

A builder keeps your site. We hand it over.

You get the files

Not an export that half works somewhere else — the real code, in a git repository you can clone. Any developer on earth can pick it up.

No rent on your own site

Publish here in a click, or point Vercel, Netlify or any host at the repository. Your site does not stop existing because a subscription lapsed.

Findable, not just pretty

Titles, descriptions, structured data and a sitemap on every page, checked before the build is called done. See SEO data.

Being fair about it

When a builder is the right answer.

If you want to drag blocks around yourself, never see a file, and never leave, a builder does that well and this does not try to. Where this wins is everything after the first version: the changes, the ownership, the cost of the tenth revision, and what happens the day you want to move.

And you do not have to choose blind. Build the thing first, look at it, then decide.

Questions

Asked, answered

Is this cheaper than Wix or Squarespace?

A builder charges a monthly fee for as long as your site exists, and a designer or developer charges again on top. Here you pay for the work as it happens — the finished sites in our showcase each cost $0.003 to $0.010 to build — and you own the result.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You describe what you want in plain English and watch it get built. The code is there if you ever want it, and invisible until then.

Can I take my site somewhere else?

Yes, and that is the point. It is a normal git repository. Host it anywhere, hand it to any developer, or keep it here — nothing about it is specific to us.
