How I built my site with Claude.
The exact path from a paid Wix subscription to a GitHub-hosted, fully analytics-instrumented, search-indexed, mobile-polished, SSL-secured stack — for three live brand sites. Hosting now costs me almost nothing. Second edition: three months on, the sites have grown a tools layer, a blog, and a maintenance problem. All three are in here now.
How I Built My Site With Claude
A step-by-step playbook for media personalities, creators, and multi-brand humans who want to leave Wix behind.
Three things you'll walk away with.
A working stack
GitHub Pages, custom domain, HTTPS, mobile-first design, security headers — the same setup running three of my live sites today.
A discovery engine
SEO tags, sitemap, JSON-LD schema, Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster, plus four free analytics tools layered for different questions.
A way to work with Claude
How I treat Claude as a co-pilot — what to delegate, what to keep, and how the same approach can be applied to almost anything you build.
Thirteen phases, all
built on what shipped.
Every chapter is from something I actually built — not theorized about. No filler. Three chapters are new or rewritten in this edition.

This playbook is an account of what I did on my own sites. It is not professional advice, and it is not a guarantee that any of it will work the same way on yours. Use it at your own discretion, and take the proper precautions.
That means: back up anything you can't afford to lose before you change it. Don't practice on a live site people depend on. Read what an AI co-pilot writes before you ship it — especially anything touching security headers, privacy language, consent, or analytics. Third-party tools and interfaces change constantly, so check the current documentation rather than trusting a screenshot from September 2026. And if your site is business-critical, handles payments, or sits under a compliance obligation, get someone qualified involved.
