The SchoolComing soon
Build your own website. Keep the four thousand dollars.
An agency will charge a small business four figures for a site, then a monthly fee to change its own phone number. This is the same workflow we use on our own products, taught end to end, so the site ends up yours to build and yours to change whenever you feel like it.
A site like the one we build costs $10.44 a year to run, which is the price of the domain name. Everything on top of it is free.

What It Covers
Everything between an idea and a live site.
No prior experience assumed. If you can run a business, you can do this.
Your first page, live today
Build something simple and get it onto the internet at a real address before you touch anything else. There's no domain to buy yet and nothing to configure, because seeing the thing work is the whole point of a first lesson.
What to actually put on it
The part everyone freezes on. Hours, services, prices, an about paragraph that doesn't make you wince, and a hard look at what your customers came to find versus what you assumed they wanted.
Building it properly with AI
How to describe your business so what comes back is usable, and how to ask for a change without breaking the parts that already worked. Knowing when the answer is wrong turns out to be most of the skill.
Photos that don't make your site crawl
The pictures off your phone are far too big, and a slow site loses people before it finishes loading. Fixing that takes about two minutes and costs nothing.
Your own domain name
Buying the name and pointing it at your site, plus what that yearly fee actually buys you. It gets registered in your name on your own account, so nobody can hold it over you later.
A contact form that reaches your inbox
Wiring up email so the messages actually arrive, and proving to the rest of the internet that the mail is really from you so it doesn't get filed as spam. Also where your keys go, which is never in the website itself.
Your logo, and the files a print shop will accept
Why the logo an AI just made you gets rejected at the print counter, and what vector actually means. By the end you can hand over whatever file format a shop asks for without a second round of emails.
Getting found
Google Business Profile, which for most local businesses matters more than the website does, set up properly the first time.
Changing your hours six months from now
The part nobody teaches. How to make a change long after the excitement wore off, and how to put it back the way it was if you don't like it, because you can't permanently break this.
Know when it opens.
Leave your email and we'll tell you when the first lessons are up. You'll hear from us once, at the point where there's actually something to watch.
Would rather we just built it for you? See what that costs.
