A website on your own domain, with no monthly hosting bill.

Build your own website with an AI assistant, and keep one recurring bill: the domain. This site does: its domain costs $10.46 a year, its hosting $0 a month on a free plan. The Domain-Only Website Kit gives you the step-by-step guide, 27 prompts and the list of 52 traps we ran into. No prior experience of Astro or Cloudflare is assumed; you type the commands in a terminal. $129, one payment, twelve months of dated updates included.

The Domain-Only Website Kit

A website on your own domain without a monthly hosting bill, with the playbook (the step-by-step guide) in English and in French: the steps we followed, the official free-plan limits with the date we read them, the 52 traps we ran into, and the real bills (the domain at registry cost, hosting at $0/month on the free plan, and a paid AI plan only if you choose one).

The domain becomes the only recurring infrastructure bill.

Hosting at $0 a month on the free plan since 2026, a dated reading on our public figures page (the ledger); the domain at $10.46 a year, on invoice.

You get the order that held, and each trap with the date it cost us.

52 traps in the list delivered with the kit, each dated and tied to where it cost us: one of the sites we manage, or the kit's own test run; counted in 2026 when the archive was packaged.

The limits are listed with the date they were read, and re-read at every update.

Cloudflare limits read in 2026.

With the kit, the first year comes to $139.46 before tax and any AI subscription.

You will need

  • A terminal: you type a few commands there, the one that installs the guide among them, and read what each command prints; your AI assistant writes the code and runs the named actions after your yes (with a chat assistant, you type them yourself).
  • A text editor, a browser and the AI assistant of your choice.
  • A Git client, if you follow the GitHub method.

Never opened a terminal? No beginner has gone through the whole method yet, as far as our records show. Where you start from

Our tools and guides

Each one goes on sale only after three dated tests on the sites we manage, with captures kept; passing them does not put a system on sale: others follow if the Kit sells. The test status is on each card. One payment, no subscription, twelve months of dated updates included.

By-the-Call SEO Manual

The month you stop paying for the suite, use DataForSEO's pay-as-you-go APIs instead, with the cost of every call known before it is made and a step-by-step guide for each task.

For: Site owners, marketers and SEO practitioners whose software subscription renews next month and who would rather pay for the calls actually made.

  • A suite bills every month whether you query it or not. Pay-as-you-go APIs, with the cost of every call known before it is made.
  • An AI assistant left alone on a paid service is a blank cheque. A spending check reads your balance and your own price list before any call.
  • Documentation says what an endpoint does, never what it costs you. Nine step-by-step guides, one per task, each with the request we ran and what we paid.

Press Radar

Sort the free journalist-request feeds in a daily routine of about ten minutes (our estimate, not yet timed), with decision rules and scripts written to stay within each platform's terms of service.

For: People who answer journalist requests themselves, without paid credits, such as one-person agencies.

  • The free request feeds are mostly noise, and reading them eats the morning. A daily routine with decision rules in a set order, and scripts.
  • Paid credits are the usual answer to a bad feed. One filtered search found more opportunities than the default feeds, with no credit spent.
  • Reading a platform with a script can cost you the account. The scripts are written to stay within each platform's terms of service, as re-read in 2026.

AI Citation Meter

Measure, per engine and per campaign, whether an AI answer cites a site, with the cost of every API call written down and the engine always named.

For: Anyone who has to answer, with a number, whether AI answers cite a site, and to say which engine said so.

  • "The AIs cite us" is said without an engine, a date or a count. One check per engine, each naming its engine, with the cost of every call written down.
  • A visibility number that flatters is worse than none. Readings at zero ship with the product.
  • Being crawled gets mistaken for being cited, and cited for being paid. The grid separates the three, with our own readings filled in.

House rules

Version 1.4, in force since 2026. Applied to every product, every page, every claim. Full text and version history.

RULE 01

Dated proof or it doesn't exist

Every number carries its source and date. Anything we have not checked says so in writing, and is listed under “What we have not verified”.

RULE 02

We publish our zeros

A zero is a test or a measurement that returned nothing. It stays on the page, printed above the buy button in amber, with its date. The mistakes we made while building are written up, dated, in the list of traps that comes with the product they concern.

RULE 03

The files stay yours

Files delivered, code without third-party dependencies, hosting at $0 a month on a free plan (the domain is your bill). Twelve months of dated updates are the only recurrence. No subscription.

RULE 04

We only sell what we own

We do not resell other people’s tools, sell what we lack the rights to, or build anything to fool AI detectors. Every archive ships with its LICENSE and NOTICE files.

What you will never read here Earnings promises · “for everyone” · “risk-free” · fake scarcity counters · guaranteed rankings or AI citations. If a page promises income, it is a bug and fixed as one.

What we have not verified, as of 2026

The part of the record most shops keep in a drawer.

  • Whether these prices hold: Decided in 2026 against one-time comparables read the same day. Only the Kit is on sale, since 2026, and no purchase of it is on record yet; none of the other systems can be bought yet. If a price moves, this page says why and when.
  • Which system goes on sale next: The Domain-Only Website Kit went on sale first. The By-the-Call SEO Manual and Press Radar follow if it sells, decided by paying strangers, not by this page and not by us on paper.
  • Team licence price: One-time comparables range from ×1.86 to ×4.4 the solo price, median ×3.3, read in 2026. Not offered yet.
  • Time-to-first-sale without urgency tactics: Unknown. This site is the experiment.
  • Done-for-you studio: Not open. Products only for now.
  • Second language: A French hub has been live since 2026 with one product page translated; whether the other eight follow depends on the merit score of each page, not on a schedule.
