BEST PLACE TO BUY A DOMAIN NAME?

When venturing online, whether it be for business, hobbies or entertainment, the process of building a website can seem challenging. But before you begin that, you have to get a domain name for that site.

Do you know where to buy a domain name?

There are plenty option on the internet offering domain names for sale.  But which one do you choose – GoDaddy, Name Cheap, Host Gator. It can get confusing, because you can’t choose just any site. Not all sites have your best interest in mind.

WHY NAMECHEAP IS MY #1 RECOMMENDATION

GoDaddy and NameCheap are the most widely known, so naturally they’re the most popular choices. Usually GoDaddy becomes the option for the majority of people, mainly because of the mass advertising and initial cheap domain costs. For the first year, you can purchase your domain name in most cases for as little as $0.99. Sign me up! No one can beat that right?

Wrong…

You should take into consideration what’s included in that initial price and the cost of renewal after that first year.

WHAT’S INCLUDED IN NAMECHEAP?

When you purchase your new domain name, you will get the included things::

  • Free email address with domain purchase
  • Free WHOIS guard for LIFE
  • Ability to transfer the DNS at time of purchase
  • No price increase when renewing

WHOIS guard is something you’re going really want to have when getting your domain name. It protects your private information (name, address, email) from being open to the public. The included email is pretty cool as well. If you’d like to transfer your domain name to your preferred hosting company, that can be done in no time.

I’ve bought plenty of domains from NameCheap and transfer them instantly to my hosting company. The change usually happens within a couple minutes for me.

When renewal time comes around, you won’t be surprised by any outrageous price. That’s because NameCheap doesn’t change your pricing. Whatever you’d paid initially is what you will pay year after year. Unlike GoDaddy, who tend to up-charge you after renewal.

GODADDY IS NOTORIOUS FOR UPSELLS AND UPCHARGING

GoDaddy may offer relatively cheap domain prices initially for the first year, but you will get hit with up-sells for things like privacy protection and email. All of which will end up costing you more money, and honestly you can get better..simpler service elsewhere if you’re going to pay more.

Plus if you plan on renewing your domain, you will be charged more, sometimes as much as $30+. I know this because it’s happen to me before (See image above). But I learned my lesson after that, which Is why I’m attempting to prevent this from happening to you. Also, GoDaddy’s interface in my opinion is not user-friendly, in addition to them always changing it..glitches run rampant.

I believe it could be a tactic to have the customer contact their support services, where they can “fix” the problem and attempt to up-sell you on something you don’t need.

Overall, I think the best place to buy a domain name is NameCheap. They’re straightforward and simple to navigate. Whenever someone asks, I always recommend them to purchase their domain from them as my first choice. Take a look at their Domain Prices.

Why I Stopped Building Landing Pages the Hard Way

If you've ever sat down to build a landing page and immediately felt overwhelmed by the blank screen staring back at you, you're not alone. For a long time, I was in that same spot. Drag-and-drop builders help, but they still take time. And when you're running a solo online business, time is the one thing you don't have enough of.

That's why I started experimenting with using Claude AI to build my landing pages for me. And what I found changed how I approach the whole thing. In this post, I'm going to walk you through exactly how I do it, step by step, so you can start doing the same.

What You Need Before You Start

You don't need to be a developer for this. You don't need to know HTML. You just need two things: a Claude AI account (the free version works for basic pages) and a Systeme.io account (also free to start).

That's it. If you have both of those, you're ready to go.

 

Step One: Writing the Right Prompt for Claude

This is where most people get stuck. They open Claude, type something vague, and get back something that doesn't really work. The fix is being specific.

Your prompt needs to include your product name, what the offer is, your brand colors, and what you want the page to do. For example, you might tell Claude: 'Build me a Systeme.io-compatible landing page for a digital product called [Product Name]. The offer is [what it includes and what it costs]. Use a dark navy background with red accent colors. Include a headline, features section, countdown timer, and a buy button.'

That level of detail gives Claude enough to work with. The more specific you are, the better the output.

Step Two: Getting the HTML From Claude

Once you submit your prompt, Claude is going to generate a block of HTML code. This usually takes about one to two minutes. When it's done, you'll see a full page of code on your screen.

Don't panic. You don't need to read it or understand it. All you need to do is hit the copy button and move on to the next step.

 

Step Three: Importing the Code Into Systeme.io

Now you'll head over to your Systeme.io dashboard. Create a new blank page and give it a name. Once you're inside the page editor, look for the HTML element in the sidebar and drag it onto your blank canvas.

Click on that HTML element, go to 'Edit Code,' delete the placeholder text that's already in there, and paste in the code you copied from Claude. Hit save.

At this point, you'll see your page take shape. It might not look perfect yet, but the structure is there.

 

Step Four: Fixing the Padding Issues

Here's something that trips up a lot of people. Systeme.io adds default padding to every element on the page. So when you paste in your HTML, you might notice a white bar at the top or gaps where there shouldn't be any.

The fix is simple. Click on the section that's causing the issue. Look for the padding settings, usually labeled in the element options. Drop the top and bottom padding down to zero. Do this at both the section level and the row level. Once you save, those gaps should clear up.

 

Step Five: Checking the Mobile View

After your desktop version looks clean, always check the mobile view. Claude does a solid job with mobile-friendly code, but the font sizes can sometimes come out a little large on smaller screens.

If that's the case, just go back to Claude and ask it to adjust the font sizes for mobile. Something like: 'Can you update the HTML so the heading text is smaller on mobile screens?' Claude will spit out a revised version of the code. Copy it, paste it back into Systeme.io, and you're done.

 

The Hybrid Approach: AI Plus Drag-and-Drop

One thing I want to be clear about. When you build a page this way, you can't use Systeme's drag-and-drop tools to edit text or buttons directly. Because the entire page is HTML, those elements don't work the same way. Every change has to go through Claude.

That's why I recommend what I call a hybrid approach. Use Claude to build the sections that are design-heavy, like your hero banner or feature blocks. Then use Systeme's native tools for the simpler pieces that you'll want to tweak often, like your opt-in form or your footer.

This gives you the speed of AI and the flexibility of the builder. Best of both worlds.

How Fast Is This Really?

Here's my honest answer. From opening Claude to having a live page preview in Systeme.io, I've done it in under 10 minutes. The prompting takes about 30 seconds. The code generation takes about two minutes. The import and padding fixes take another five minutes or so.

Compare that to spending 30 to 60 minutes building a page from scratch, and this method isn't even close. It's faster every single time.

 

Final Thoughts on Using AI to Build Landing Pages

If you've been putting off building your funnel because the tech feels like too much, this is your sign to just start. You don't need design skills. You don't need to hire a developer. You just need to know how to write a decent prompt.

Claude handles the code. Systeme.io hosts the page. You just put the pieces together. That's the whole thing.
