The ridiculously sort of simple website builder. SPA, or Multi-Page Sites with Stripe Payments.
Your own public page: set its name and look here, and point domains you own at it.
The name, contact details and starting look shown on your own public page.
Hire someone to build your page without giving them your own account. Give each person their own name and their own password here, and they sign in at login.html with your company address, that name, and that password.
A person added here can build your page -- its pages, sections, words, pictures and look. They cannot see or change your domains, your email settings, your contact email, your company password, or this list of people.
The password you sign in with yourself at login.html, using your company address and no name. Set a new one here any time. This is yours alone -- never give it to someone you hired, because it reaches everything on this page, including your domains and your email settings.
A real payment made on your page goes straight into your own, completely separate Stripe account. This service never connects to your Stripe account, never holds your money, and takes no fee.
Make your own Stripe account at stripe.com if you don't have one yet, then create a Restricted key there (Developers → API keys → Create restricted key, with Checkout Sessions set to Write and everything else set to None) and paste it in below. The full step-by-step guide is here.
Where your products show depends on your site type, and both really work. On a one-page site, add an "Everything you have for sale" element and a "Cart and checkout" element to any section in Build your page. On a multi-page site, add the Product Listing, Cart and Checkout pages there instead.
A webhook makes Stripe tell your site about every payment and refund, so an order is still recorded when a buyer closes the page before coming back, and a refunded e-book can no longer be downloaded. The Sell E-books guide shows each click.
Pictures and videos you upload are kept in your own storage on Amazon, in your own account, under your own name. They stay yours, you can see them any time, and if you ever leave they go with you.
This has to be set up before you can upload a picture or a logo. This is the same arrangement as taking payments above: your own Amazon account, not ours. The full step-by-step guide is here. It takes about twenty minutes, and your site carries on working the whole time.
E-books you sell are kept in a second bucket in your own Amazon account that nobody can open without paying, and each buyer gets a download link that works for 15 minutes at a time. The Sell E-books guide walks through making it.
Every real, completed sale made on your page, whichever site type it is.
Point domains you own at this page -- an address and its www version can both work. Set each one’s DNS A record to 44.195.131.140 first, then add it here, and a real, free HTTPS certificate is issued automatically, within about 5 minutes.
Each address picks its own HTTPS certificate below: the free one we get and renew for you, a certificate you bought for that address, or a wildcard certificate you bought that covers it. Upload your own in the next section first, and it appears here on every address it really covers.
After adding a domain, its real secure address (https) takes about 5 minutes to start working while this service sets up its certificate. Visiting it before then can show a security warning in the browser -- that is expected, and it clears on its own.
Every address you point at this page gets a real, free HTTPS certificate from us, renewed for you, and most people never need anything else. If you already bought a certificate, you can run that instead, and each address picks its own.
A certificate issued for an address works for the exact addresses written into it. A wildcard certificate carries a name like *.mybusiness.com and works for every address one level under it, including ones you add later. One important difference: nothing renews a certificate you bought yourself, so the date below is yours to watch.
When this service emails something about your account -- right now, your own password-reset link -- it goes out from your own email account below instead of this platform's, once you save one here. Leave this whole section blank to keep using this platform's own email.
Your page already has a real sitemap and robots.txt, automatically, with nothing to set up -- see them at sitemap.xml and robots.txt. Every address your page answers at gets its own correct pair of those two files.
Your page can be reached at its address here and at any domain you have pointed at it, and all of them keep working whichever you pick. This only tells a search engine which one to treat as the real address, so the others stop competing with it. Your own domain is usually the better choice, because you own it and it keeps whatever standing it earns even if you leave this service.
Which of your real pages are in your sitemap -- every page is in by default; uncheck one to leave it out.
Prove you own this page to Google. Either type in just the real filename Google gave you, or paste the real file's own content if Google asked for something other than the plain filename method.
