RGK🌹 (@rgk_degen) reported1 prompt. Claude builds a $2,000/week website from scratch. Here’s the exact system, step by step. Most people build sites the wrong way. They hire a developer for $3,000–8,000. Wait 3–6 weeks. Get something generic. Then pay another $500/month to maintain it. The new way: 1 prompt. 45 minutes. Launch-ready. WHAT YOU’RE BUILDING A niche service landing page conversion-optimized, Stripe-integrated, SEO-structured that targets a local or vertical market with $200–500 average order value. Target: $2,000/week minimum by week 4. THE PROMPT ARCHITECTURE Your 1 prompt has 4 layers: → Layer 1 Business context “I’m building a [niche] service site targeting [city/audience]. Average order: $[X]. Primary CTA: book a call / buy now.” → Layer 2 Stack spec “Build in HTML/CSS/JS, Stripe Checkout embedded, Calendly widget for booking, Google Analytics 4 ready.” → Layer 3 Content skeleton “Homepage: hero with pain point + 3 benefits + social proof section + FAQ + CTA. No blog. No filler.” → Layer 4 Conversion rules “Above the fold: 1 headline, 1 subheadline, 1 button. No nav clutter. Mobile-first. Load under 2 seconds.” Paste all 4 layers into Claude as 1 message. Hit send. WHAT CLAUDE DELIVERS IN 45 MINUTES → Full HTML file, production-ready → Stripe Checkout flow embedded → Mobile layout done → Meta tags + OG data for social sharing → Contact form wired to Formspree (free tier) You copy the output. Drop into Netlify or Vercel. Live in 8 minutes. Domain: $12/year on Namecheap. Hosting: $0. Total launch cost: $12. REALISTIC REVENUE PROGRESSION Week 1 Site live. Run $50 in Meta ads to local audience. 3 conversions at $150 = $450. Week 2 Add Google Business Profile. 2 organic calls. 1 closes. $200. Week 3 Raise price 20%. Run retargeting on the 60 visitors who didn’t convert. $600. Week 4 Email the 3 week-1 buyers. Ask for referrals. 2 referrals at $250 = $500 + repeat. Total week: $2,100+. The site didn’t change. The traffic system compounded.

Christina Panina (@ChristinaPanin1) reported@justdevopsguy @Namecheap We dug deeper: a network hiccup occurred on ~0.005% of accounts, including yours, causing a longer 20 min delay. You saw a temporary migration lock to maintain account integrity. The lock lifted automatically afterward. Our team is also fixing load spikes that may cause slowness.

Carla Alvarez - Raised to Walk (@RaisedtoWalk) reported@YouTube @Restreamio @Namecheap One of the other things snaking MCN owners can do is enforced "content standardization" on videos in their network ... even if they HIJACKED the channel into it and even if the video is uploaded to another account. Which they have obviously done on this video

Jay (@Cyberlane) reported@diegohaz Already did that a while ago. I really disliked namecheap, their support was poor and the inability to simply change a username was crazy to me. Everything is on Cloudflare now and couldn’t be happier!

WICK (@lhilwick) reported@anupamrjp I'd probably stick with Namecheap. They've been reliable for me and the support is solid.
-
Signius (@SigniusNetworks) reported@Namecheap Oh FFS so it's caused by Right Clicking to Copy the password. If you just double click & "ctrl c" it does not add "Refresh" to the pasted text. I have never ever encountered this bloody nonsense before & so not understand why any developer would think this is acceptable.
-
Johnny Picante (@JohnnyPic51) reported@CertainLogicAI @buildwithmaya @Namecheap Agreed for the validation phase — cheapest thing that ships wins. Where a geo-TLD earns its keep is after you've got signal and want the URL itself doing some work (local SEO, word-of-mouth memorability) instead of just hosting code.

Jamie Zoch (@DotWeekly) reportedThe expired domain market is not built for affiliate marketing but it should be because the tools offered on DotWeekly, ExpiredDomains and more are very helpful and drive a lot of sales! The following do not offer affiliate programs for expired domain auctions: Dropcatch Snapnames/NameJet NameCheap GoDaddy (with exception but is TERRIBLE & broken) That is the majority, by far. Dynadot Does, Sedo Does The following are the click stats by marketplace on DotWeekly. GoDaddy commission was $32.93, via 1 sale and earning by far the most clicks over the past 30 days. DotWeekly is skewed to show/highlight GoDaddy/Dynadot inventory more because of the affiliate programs, to note. Overall, very little reason to keep DotWeekly up IMO with all the sources currently offered as I get zero benefit. If it switches to only highlight Dynadot inventory, that is why.
