Your options

Your site, your way

Every WebsitePairs site starts as a working demo on a .netlify.app link. Here's how to use it, and the three ways to take it live.

Step 1

How to use your demo link

Your demo is the real site, already running. Treat it like the finished thing.

  1. Open it on your phone

    Most of your customers will see it there first. Tap every button and try every form.

  2. Share it with your team

    Send the link to anyone who should weigh in. Nothing they do can break it.

  3. Send us your changes

    Text or email what you'd like different. Two rounds of changes are included in every plan.

  4. Pick how you go live

    Choose one of the three plans below. Your demo becomes your live site on your own domain.

Your demo shows a small Preview bar and is hidden from Google, so it never competes with your current site. Free preview links come down after 30 days.

Step 2

Pick who runs it

The build is the same in every plan. The difference is who hosts it and makes changes after launch.

Hosting

Why most people let us host it

Hosting it yourself is completely doable. Here's what you take on when you do.

Demo + Handoff

Taking it live yourself

If you pick Handoff, this is what you'll do. Your guide and the handoff call walk you through each step.

  1. Make a free Netlify account

    Go to netlify.com and sign up. The free plan covers a small site, but your site goes offline if you use up the month's credits.

  2. Put your site in

    Drag the folder we send you into Netlify. If your site has extras, like a check-up tool or AI features, it goes in through GitHub instead, and we set that up with you.

  3. Connect your domain

    Add your domain in Netlify, then update the settings at the company you bought it from. Copy your email settings (MX records) first so your email keeps working.

  4. Point your forms and Google listing

    Set the email address for form submissions in Netlify, then update the website link on your Google Business Profile.

Build + Teach

Learn to run it with Claude

For organizations and owners who want to make their own changes. You don't need to know code: Claude writes it, and we teach you how to ask and how to check.

Setup

We put your site in your own GitHub and Netlify accounts and write a guide file that tells Claude how your site works.

Session 1: Claude

How your site's files fit together, how to ask Claude for a change, and how to check it before it goes live.

Session 2: Netlify

Your domain, forms, hosting credits, and how to undo a change that went wrong.

Session 3: Real changes

You add an event, change a price and swap photos while we watch. Then 30 days of support by text and email.

You pay for your own tools: a paid Claude plan to use Claude Code, plus Netlify if you outgrow the free plan. After the 30 days, extra help is paid per session, or you can switch to our $200/mo upkeep any time.

Questions

Choosing a plan

Can I switch plans later?

Yes. If you pick Demo + Handoff and change your mind within 60 days, your $750 counts toward Build + Launch. You pay $250 more and start upkeep. Teach clients can move to upkeep any time.

Do I own my site either way?

Yes. Your domain is in your name, and your words, photos and site files are yours on every plan.

What's a "batch" of changes?

A handful of small edits sent together, like new prices, a new photo and an updated event. Bigger additions, like a new page, get a quote first.

Do I need to know how to code for Build + Teach?

No. Claude writes the code. We teach you how to ask for what you want, check it on the preview, and publish it.

How do I pay?

Plans are paid securely through Stripe. If your organization needs an invoice first, we'll send one you can pay by card or bank transfer.

Not sure which plan fits?

Start with the Start Here form and pick "Not sure yet". We'll recommend one within one business day.
