Fast Start Guide

Your first site in 5 minutes

WebBuilder generates a complete professional website from a short description of your business. This guide walks you from sign-up to a live, hosted site.

What you need

  • An email address (for your free account)
  • Your business name and a one-sentence description
  • A rough idea of your industry and the tone you want (professional, friendly, bold, etc.)

No credit card required for the free tier.

1

Create your account

Go to app.webbuilder.agency and enter your email address. We'll send you a magic link — no password to set. Click the link in the email to sign in. The whole thing takes about 30 seconds.

Magic links — check your junk folder if the email doesn't arrive within a minute. The link expires after 10 minutes, but you can always request a new one.

Fill in the brief

After signing in, click Generate a site. You'll see a short form with five fields:

Business name

Your trading name. E.g. Sutherland & Sons Plumbing

Industry

Pick the closest match from the list — this shapes the copy style, section layout, and images WebBuilder generates.

Services

A comma-separated list of what you offer. Three to five is ideal. E.g. emergency callouts, boiler installation, bathroom fitting

Tone

How you want the copy to feel: professional, friendly, bold, premium, approachable. When in doubt, professional works for most businesses.

Description

One to three sentences about your business. Include what makes you different, who you serve, and where you're based. The more specific you are, the better the generated copy.

Generate

Click Generate site. WebBuilder will:

  1. Research industry patterns for your category
  2. Write copy specific to your business (not generic filler)
  3. Select a colour palette and typography matched to your tone
  4. Generate professional images (Pro and Agency tiers)
  5. Score the output for quality and flag any gaps

This takes about 60–90 seconds. A progress bar shows each stage as it completes.

Review and refine

A preview of the full site loads when generation is complete. Scroll through it and check the copy, layout, and design.

Happy with a section? No action needed — it's saved.

Want to change a section? Rate it with a thumbs down and it will regenerate automatically with a revised brief.

Want a different feel? Use a wishlist prompt — type something like “make it feel more premium” and WebBuilder will adjust the visual direction.

Publish

When you're happy, click Publish. Your site goes live on a your-name.webbuilder.digital subdomain within a few seconds.

Tips for better results

  • Be specific in your description. “Family-run plumber serving East London, 24-hour callouts, 10+ years experience” beats “a plumbing company”.
  • List real services, not categories. “boiler installation, power flushing, leak detection” gives the AI better material to write from than “plumbing services”.
  • Regenerate freely. Free tier gets 3 generations per month. Each one can be meaningfully different if you adjust the brief or tone.
  • Use section regeneration. If one section is off but the rest is good, thumbs-down that section only — the rest of the site stays intact.
