How Site Builder works
From a 5-minute wizard to a working website. Here's exactly what happens, what you get, and what it costs.
What Site Builder is
Site Builder is one of our 25 AI agents. Its job is to take a description of your business and turn it into a live, mobile-friendly website in 5 to 10 minutes. It writes the code, picks the photos, lays out the pages, and publishes the result for you to review and approve.
Site Builder itself is a one-time purchase ($299-$1,499 depending on tier), not a monthly subscription. You pay once, you get a website. After launch, the customer typically chooses one of two paths: keep hosting with us at $19/month on a custom domain (yourbusiness.com), or download the source code and host it anywhere. Either way, the agents you subscribe to keep working - via the dashboard if hosted with us, or via our API if hosted elsewhere.
How it works, step by step
- You fill out the wizard. Business name, what you do, where you serve, your services, your phone, your colors and theme preference. Takes 5 minutes.
- You pay through Stripe. One-time charge. Card never stored on our servers - Stripe handles billing.
- The build kicks off automatically. No admin gating, no waiting in a queue. The Site Builder agent receives your inputs and starts generating pages immediately.
- The agent writes your site. One page at a time. Hero, about, services, contact, plus product or blog pages depending on tier. Each page is validated against quality rules before being saved.
- Trade-relevant photography. Pexels API picks photos that match your industry. A plumber doesn't get electrician photos.
- Live preview link emailed to you. Once the build finishes (5-10 min for most tiers), you get a link to your customer order page. Open it and you see your site as a live preview.
- You approve or request a revision. If you love it, click Approve and it goes live on your subdomain (or your own domain if you bought one through us). If something needs changing, click Request Revision and tell us what.
- You're live. Your customers can find you within hours of you placing the order.
The four tiers
Each tier builds a different scope of website. Pick based on what your business actually needs.
| Tier | Price | Pages | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Web Presence | $299 one-time | 1 landing page | Tradespeople who just need a "we exist" page |
| Business Website | $599 one-time | 4 pages (home, about, services, contact) | Most local small businesses |
| Blog Website | $899 one-time | Business + blog scaffold | Service businesses building authority via content |
| Ecommerce Website | $1,499 one-time | Business + Stripe-ready product pages | Small e-commerce shops getting started |

Hosting and your domain
Hosting on BuzFind is $19/month. Your site runs on a custom domain you own - yourbusiness.com, not a BuzFind subdomain. Two paths:
- Buy your domain through us. We register it for you and wire DNS automatically. Annual registrar fee is passed through at cost (typically $12-$25/year depending on the TLD).
- Bring a domain you already own. Point its DNS to us via two records we give you in the dashboard. We handle SSL automatically.
Prefer to host elsewhere? We also deliver the full Next.js source code as a download. Take it to Vercel, Netlify, your own VPS - whatever you like. The agents you subscribe to keep working via our API (see API for self-hosted customers).
Revisions during the build
While we build your site, you preview it before approving. Revisions during this window are unlimited and included in the Site Builder price. Tell us what to change - copy, layout, photos, color tone - and the agent rebuilds the affected pages. Once you approve, the build phase ends and the site goes live on your domain.
Changes after launch
After your site is live, there are two scenarios:
- You have hosting with us, or any agent subscription, or both. All ongoing changes are unlimited and free. Edit copy, swap images, add a service area, add a brand-new page - just ask the agents from your dashboard chat. They handle it, every change is backed up first so you can roll it back, no per-change fees ever. The dashboard has an Add a page button that runs the relevant agent (Authority Content Creator for content, Site Builder for new pages) and publishes after your approval.
- You bought Site Builder once and have no ongoing subscription. You took the source code and walked away. We are not on payroll for your site any more, so changes you cannot do yourself become a consulting service - hourly rate, scoped per request. Most customers in this bucket either edit the code themselves (it is standard Next.js) or come back and add a small subscription so changes go through the dashboard for free. We never bill you for a change without a written quote you accepted first.
Will the site rank in Google?
The site is built SEO-ready (clean code, fast load, schema markup, mobile-first). But ranking in Google takes time and depends on your competition + the work you do AFTER launch (Google Business Profile, content, links). Site Builder gets you to a strong starting line. To accelerate ranking, pair it with one of our monthly SEO plans.
