# sitelaunch > sitelaunch makes a small business a real website where people can buy from it, book it and pay it, on the business's own domain. $39 a month, no setup fee, and sitelaunch takes 0% of sales. ## What it does - The owner tells sitelaunch about the business; sitelaunch picks a look and writes the first version of the words. Every line can then be edited beside a live preview. - Sell things delivered online or in person: downloadable files, services and appointments, and courses. Offers go live the moment they are saved. - Take bookings: services and opening hours on the site, and customers pick a time that lands on the owner's own calendar. A Calendly or GoHighLevel calendar can sit on the page instead. - Get paid: the owner connects their own Square or Stripe account, and money goes to that account without passing through sitelaunch. sitelaunch takes 0% of sales; the payment processor's own card fees still apply. - Own domain: every store works at yourname.sitelaunch.io straight away and can move to a domain the owner already has. - A link-in-bio page, an assistant on the site that answers customers from the owner's own words, sales numbers, and messages from customers in one list. - Works with the AI the owner already uses: Claude or ChatGPT can connect to the store over MCP and make changes the owner approves. - Teams and agencies: invite helpers with limited access, or run stores for clients from one console. ## Who it is for Solo owners and small teams who want a working site that sells and books without building one: salons and spas, trades and home services, fitness and coaching, consultants, and people selling what they know. ## What it costs $39 a month for the whole thing, with no setup fee and no cut of sales. Cancel any time from Billing. ## What it is not - Not for shipping physical products: there is no shipping or inventory for parcels. - Not a CRM or an email marketing tool: owners keep using their own tools for campaigns, and can export their customers. ## Links - [Home](https://www.sitelaunch.io/) - [Start a site](https://www.sitelaunch.io/store) - [Help center](https://www.sitelaunch.io/help) - [Terms](https://www.sitelaunch.io/terms) and [privacy](https://www.sitelaunch.io/privacy) sitelaunch is run by PostGrad, LLC.
