AI website builders can suggest layouts, text or images from a short brief. Before choosing one, decide what the site must do, who maintains it and what ongoing costs or platform limits you can accept.

Write the brief first

Describe the audience, main action, pages, visual direction and information that must be accurate. Prepare your own contact, privacy and business details; a generated page cannot supply missing real-world information for you.

Compare ownership and cost

Check the official plan for domain charges, hosting, renewal prices, export options, analytics, ads, form handling and whether you can move the site later. “Free to publish” may include platform branding, feature limits or a paid custom domain.

Review every generated page

Check mobile layout, accessibility, links, spelling, legal statements and load speed. Replace generic paragraphs with original material that genuinely helps a visitor. Keep a backup of the content and know how to update it.

Try this: Generate only a one-page draft first. Test it on a phone, click each action and ask someone unfamiliar with the project what they think the site offers.

A note on accuracy and privacy

Do not publish fabricated reviews, business credentials or policies. Review platform terms and any privacy obligations that apply to the data collected on your site.
