What happens, and when#
- Sign in with Google
No password to remember. Google asks which account to use. New owners choose a site name next; returning owners open their dashboard.
- Claim your name
Type the name you want. If it’s free, claim it and open your new dashboard.
- Build your site, free
Add your photo, a short bio and your work. Visitors can’t see it yet. You have 21 days from claiming your name to pay.
- Pay to publish
Press Publish and pay $30 for your first year: by bank transfer, or with a voucher code if we gave you one.
- We review it
A real person looks at every new site, usually within 1 business day. You can keep building.
- Publish
Once approved, one click puts your site live for everyone.

What each number means
Common questions#
Is there a monthly fee?
No monthly bill. You pay once a year: $30 for the first year ($2.50/month, billed yearly), then $15 a year ($1.25/month, billed yearly). Nothing is charged automatically; we remind you before each renewal. See Billing and renewals.
Can I build before I pay?
Yes. You can edit, design and preview your site for free. You pay $30 when you want to publish it. Unpaid sites are deleted 21 days after claiming a name.
Can I build before my site is approved?
Yes. You can edit everything while you wait. Only the Publish button stays locked until approval.
Do I need a password?
Not with Google: new owners sign in with it, so there is no password. Existing accounts that have a password can still sign in with their username or email and password.
Is the app in Arabic?
Yes. The app and this help centre are in English and Arabic. Your site can be in either language too.
