Website Lattice
You leave able to run your own website.
Right now a new price, a new photo or a new page probably means an email to someone and a wait. After this, you ask Claude or ChatGPT for the change and it is live the same afternoon.
$500 + GST, fixed.
What it is
I move your site onto accounts in your name and connect it to the AI you already pay for. Then I sit beside you while you make your first change yourself. That session is the heart of it: you walk out with the tools and the confidence to keep going.
The site you get is a solid baseline: fast, tidy, and carrying everything your current one has. Think of it as a lattice. It holds its shape and gives the site something to climb. The planting is yours.
What's included
The skills
- A 30-minute handover session where you make your first change yourself, with me beside you
- Claude or ChatGPT connected to your site, with written instructions it follows when editing
- A one-page cheat sheet of the requests that cover most everyday changes
- 14 days of email questions while you find your feet
The site
- Up to ten pages moved from WordPress, Squarespace, Wix or similar
- Text, images and page structure carried across
- Redirects from your old page addresses, so existing links and search results keep working
- One contact form, wired to a third-party form service
- Hosting set up on Vercel, code stored in GitHub, both in your name
What's not included
These are quoted separately. Most of them need a different tool.
- Online shops, bookings, memberships or customer logins
- More than ten pages
- New design or new copywriting (the site moves as it is)
- Changing your domain's DNS settings (you do this from my written steps, or I do it at $250/hr)
- Email hosting or email migration
- Fixing anything after you have edited it yourself
- Support after the 14 days, which is billed at $250/hr
Before we start
The work starts once these are done. Each takes a few minutes.
- Create a GitHub account and invite me as a collaborator
- Create a Vercel account on the Pro plan and add me as a viewer (viewer seats are free)
- Have a paid Claude or ChatGPT subscription in your name
- Send an export of your current site, or set up a temporary login for me that you remove at handover
- Confirm who manages your domain name (GoDaddy, VentraIP, Crazy Domains or similar)
Every account stays in your name. I work as a guest and leave when the job is done.
How it runs
- Accounts. You complete the checklist above and pay the invoice.
- Build. I move your pages across into your GitHub. You connect it to Vercel from my written steps, and the new site goes up at a temporary Vercel address.
- Check. You look it over and send one round of corrections.
- Go live. Your domain is pointed at the new site. The old site stays up until the new one is confirmed working.
- Handover. A 30-minute session where you make a change through Claude or ChatGPT while I watch.
- Your site. Fourteen days of email questions, then it is yours to grow.
After handover
You pay your providers directly. I take no margin on any of it.
- Vercel Pro hosting
- US$20 per month, one seat
- Paid to Vercel
- Claude or ChatGPT subscription
- Your existing plan
- Paid to Anthropic or OpenAI
- Domain renewal
- Unchanged
- Paid to Your domain registrar
- GitHub
- Free
- Paid to GitHub
Vercel's free plan is limited to personal, non-commercial use, so business sites need Pro (Vercel fair use guidelines).
Once you start editing, the site is yours to run. GitHub keeps every version, so any change you regret can be rolled back.
