What This Skill Has Paid Me

Screenshots from my own Upwork account. This is what building websites for paying clients has looked like for me.

Bryan Collins’ verified Upwork profile: $50K+ total earnings, 4 jobs, 1,290 total hours, $50/hr

Upwork transaction history showing recurring weekly payments of $1,080 after Upwork’s 10% fee ($1,200 billed)
Recurring Weekly Income: $1,200 ($1,080 after Upwork’s fee)

These are my personal results from client work. They are not typical and not a promise of what you will earn.

The problem

Anybody Can Get A Website Up Now. Getting Paid For One Is Different.

AI can build a website in minutes, so a website on its own isn’t worth much anymore. What businesses pay for is a site that brings them customers. Here’s where most people get stuck:

  • The site looks great, but google it and you can’t find it.
  • They pick keywords nobody searches for, or ones they can never win.
  • The pages don’t hang together, so Google can’t tell what the site is about.
  • Nothing shows Google there’s a real business behind it.
  • The odd lead that does come in gets lost in an inbox.

Most people are focused on building the website.

I’m focused on building the business behind it.

The Claude Code Microsite Blueprint by Bryan Collins

Where every online business starts

Every Make-Money-Online Plan Starts The Same Way: A Funnel And A List.

I’ve been in the online world since 2004. Every course, every guru, every plan I’ve seen says the same thing: build a funnel, build a list. Here’s the part they skip. A funnel is just a series of pages on a website: an opt-in page, a thank-you page, a sales page, the pages after it. If you can’t build those pages yourself, you rent them from a funnel builder, every month. And the list is the people who give you their email on those pages, so you can follow up with them for years.

No pages, no list. No list, no business. It all starts with being able to build the pages.

1The pagesYour funnel: opt-in page, sales page, thank-you and download pages. Claude Code builds every one, and the Blueprint shows you how. You own them; no monthly builder.In the Blueprint
2The captureEvery opt-in and every lead lands in your email list or CRM, never lost in an inbox. The Blueprint shows you how I wire it up.In the Blueprint
3The follow-upEmailing your list is its own skill, and it’s where the long-term money is. The Blueprint gets you to the starting line: pages that work and a list that grows.Your next step

This page is part of exactly that: an opt-in page, a video page, this sales page, the upgrade and download pages. I built every one with Claude Code, and every one feeds my list.

Where the money is

One Skill, Six Ways To Make Money Online

Once you can build a website with Claude Code, you can build almost any kind of site that earns. These are the ones I’ve built myself.

1Affiliate sitesReview and guide sites that send visitors to other people’s products and earn a commission on every sale or booking. My fishing-charter guides earn a share of each trip booked through them.
2Funnels for affiliate offersOpt-in pages, bridge pages and sales pages for the offers you promote with email or paid ads. No monthly page builder.
3Your own productSell something you made: the sales page, the upsells and the download pages. The funnel this page is part of is one I built with Claude Code.
4E-commerce storesWant to sell physical products? Build a headless store: Shopify runs the products, cart and checkout behind the scenes, and the storefront people see is your own fast site, built with Claude Code instead of a Shopify theme. That’s how I built The Flag Guys’ store for a real family business.
5Sites for local businessesContractors, car services, shops. They pay for a site that brings in calls, and many keep paying monthly to keep it working. This is my Upwork work.
6Lead-gen micrositesSmall sites that bring a business leads from towns where it has no office. The business pays for the site or for the leads.

The Blueprint walks you through the build step by step, from picking what to build to catching every lead. The same process carries over to every site on this list.

What you earn depends on your market, your clients and your work. No income is promised.

No page builder required

You Don’t Need To Pay Monthly For A Page Builder.

Every other offer sells you a tool. This teaches you the skill.

Go through almost any funnel in this space and it ends the same way: a pitch for a page builder, or an “AI funnel” tool that builds pages for you, every month, forever. Then comes the SEO tool for your keyword research: Semrush or Ahrefs, another $129 to $139 a month. Claude Code already builds the pages, and the keyword data costs cents a search when you plug it straight in. What’s missing is knowing how to put it all together. That’s what the Blueprint is.

Page builders and website platforms crossed out: you don't need a monthly page builder

Renting a page builder

What most people get sold

  • Another monthly fee, on top of everything else
  • Plus an SEO tool for keyword research: $129 to $139 a month, whether you build anything or not
  • Your pages live on their platform. On most of them, stop paying and they stop working
  • Templates that look like everybody else’s
  • Only the SEO settings they decide to give you
  • Their limits on what you can build

Claude Code + the Blueprint

What I do instead

  • No page-builder subscription
  • No SEO subscription: keyword and competitor data for cents a search (Bonus 3)
  • You own every file. Move it anywhere, any time
  • Any design you can describe, not a template
  • Full control of titles, structure and markup Google reads
  • Sales pages, lead pages, whole sites: if you can describe it, Claude Code can build it
  • You’ll still pay for your Claude plan, a domain, hosting and the keyword data you look up (usually cents). Just not a page builder or an SEO tool on top.

Do the math

Two Monthly Bills You Never Pay Again. And A Skill Nobody Can Switch Off.

Here’s how most people start a website business. They buy a funnel builder. Then they find out you can’t build a site that gets found without keyword research, so they buy an SEO tool too. Both bill every month, whether you build anything or not.

Funnel builder (ClickFunnels starts at)$97 a month
SEO tool for keyword research (Semrush starts at)$139 a month
Before you’ve built a single site$236 a month · $2,832 a year
The Blueprint, and the way I work$17 once, then cents a search

Prices from clickfunnels.com and semrush.com, checked 24 October 2026. Kajabi runs $179 to $499 a month, Kartra $59 to $549 (kartra.com, 24 October 2026), and Ahrefs starts at $129. You’ll still pay for your Claude plan, a domain, hosting and the keyword data you look up, usually cents a search.

1No page builderClaude Code builds the pages: sales pages, lead pages, whole sites. You own every file, and no platform can raise the price, lock your pages or switch them off.
2No SEO subscriptionYou still need keyword research. Every site starts with it. Bonus 3 shows you how I get the same kind of keyword and competitor data the big tools sell, straight into Claude Code, for cents a search.
3A skill you can sellLocal businesses pay for sites that get found, and many keep paying monthly. You can build funnels for your own offers, or sell your own product. The only software you depend on is Claude Code.
You’re looking at the proof.

This sales page, the video page before it, the upgrade pages after it, the download pages and the email capture: I built every page of this funnel with Claude Code, the way the Blueprint teaches. No page builder. No funnel software. That’s the skill you’re getting.

What you earn depends on your market, your clients and your work. No income is promised.

The two things that stop people

“I’m Not Technical.” “What If I Break It?” Here’s The Truth.

I didn’t code for a living either. For years WordPress was my go-to, with OptimizePress on top because it was quick. And I lived on the treadmill: plugins to buy, plugins to update, security patches, over and over. It felt like Windows updates that never end. I’ve taken over client WordPress sites that were infected because nobody kept the plugins updated. I’ve been building with Claude Code for about a year now, and that treadmill is gone.

1You just talk to itTell Claude Code what you want in plain English. Type it, or pick up a microphone and say it: make this bigger, I don’t like that, fix this. It writes the code. The Blueprint tells you what to ask for, and in what order.
2Nothing you can’t undoEvery change is saved. Claude Code can rewind its last change, GitHub keeps every version of every file, and Replit keeps your publish history. Make a mess on day 12, roll back to day 11.
3No plugin treadmillNo plugins to buy or keep updated, no database to get infected, no WordPress login for bots to hammer. You set the security up once at launch, and the Blueprint shows you how without blocking your forms or videos.

It looks hard from the outside. It isn’t. Get the Blueprint, open Claude Code, and start talking to it.

The part most people skip, and clients pay for

Why Clients Keep Paying: Their Site Actually Gets Found.

Most AI website tutorials stop the moment the site is live. That’s exactly when Google starts asking a different question: is there a real business behind this?

If nothing outside your site backs it up, a beautiful site can sit on page five forever. The Blueprint shows you the part that answers Google’s question, the same way I do it on client sites.

1
One business, described the same everywhereSame name, same details, on the site and everywhere else it appears.
2
Profiles that point back to the siteWhich ones I set up first, and how they tie together.
3
Markup that connects the dotsSo Google can see the site and the profiles are one business.
4
What to expect in the first weeksThe dip that scares people, and why I don’t touch the site during it.

Inside the Blueprint

My Workflow, From Research To Launch

No more guessing what to do next. Five parts, in the order I actually do them. Nothing skipped, nothing padded.

1

Give Claude Code a memory

Out of the box, Claude Code forgets your rules every session. Here’s how I set up a project so it remembers them, builds the pages fast, and leaves you in full control of the website.

2

Pick a site worth building

How I find what people are actually searching for, check who already ranks, and decide whether a site is worth building before I spend a minute on it.

3

Prove there’s a real business behind it

One name everywhere, honest markup, and the matching profiles that tell Google a real business stands behind the site. Plus what the first month really looks like.

4

Build a site Google understands

The topic map I make before writing a word, why the homepage is the hub, and how every page lines up with what you want the site to be known for.

5

Launch it and catch every lead

Phone, form and chat wired into a CRM, the one test that proves leads are landing, my pre-launch checklist, and why I ship everything at once and then leave it alone.

Not theory. Not a recycled course. The actual process I use.

Also inside

The Stuff I Wish Someone Had Handed Me

The workflow is the core. These are what save you the weeks I lost figuring it out.

The traps list

The mistakes that cost me days, each with the symptom, the cause and the fix.

Copy-paste prompts

The instructions I give Claude Code at each step, ready to paste.

Templates

My memory file, profile kit and page plan, so you’re not starting from a blank page.

Checklists

Pre-launch and business-profile checklists I run before anything goes live.

Search results

What Google Search Console Shows On Client Sites

Straight from Search Console on sites I work on. Blue is clicks from Google, purple is how often the site showed up in search.

Google Search Console, last 12 months: 10.1K clicks and 2.82M impressions, rising steadily from spring 2026
Client site, last 12 months: 10.1K clicks, 2.82M impressions
Google Search Console, last 12 months: 1.45K clicks and 177K impressions, near zero until April 2026 then climbing
Client site, last 12 months: 1.45K clicks, 177K impressions
Google Search Console, last 16 months: 1.71K clicks and 157K impressions, stepping up sharply from late May 2026
Client site, last 16 months: 1.71K clicks, 157K impressions

Every site and market is different. These show what has happened on sites I work on, not what will happen on yours.

What Readers Say

“I've built over 500 websites since 2012, most for clients. AI has made this much easier, but too many people just go to an AI platform and "build a website" without any planning or blueprint... without knowing there's still a "right way and a wrong way".

Bryans' Claude Code Blueprint is the right way. It shows you how to use Claude Code and a repeatable process to create websites that are good looking, functional, and should rank... consistently.”

Is it for you?

Who This Is For, And Who It Isn’t

This isn’t push-button. That’s why it works.

This is for you if…

  • You promote affiliate offers and need somewhere to send the traffic. An opt-in page and a bridge page convert better than a bare affiliate link.
  • You run paid ads or email and want your own funnel pages without paying monthly for a page builder.
  • You want review and comparison sites that earn a commission on every sale or booking.
  • You want to sell your own digital product: the sales page, the upsells and the download pages.
  • You want to sell physical products, with a store that plugs into Shopify.
  • You want to get paid building websites for local businesses, as one-off jobs or monthly clients.
  • You want lead-gen sites that bring a business calls from towns where it has no office.
  • You want your sites found on Google, so the traffic keeps coming without paying for every click.
  • You want every lead and sale to land in your list or CRM, not get lost.
  • You’re tired of renting your pages and want to own every file you build.
  • You’ve seen AI build websites and want to turn that into income.
  • You’d rather follow a real process than guess.

This is not for you if…

  • You want a push-button, “three clicks and you’re rich” system. There’s real work involved.
  • You expect guaranteed rankings, traffic or income. Nobody honest can promise that.
  • You want results overnight. Google takes weeks to trust a new site, sometimes months.
  • You won’t set aside a few hours to follow the steps and build your first site.
  • You don’t want to pay for anything at all. You’ll need a Claude plan, a domain and hosting.
  • You want shortcuts like fake reviews, made-up addresses or copied sites. I don’t teach those.
  • You’re looking for software that does it all for you. This is a skill, not a tool.

Who’s behind this

Hi, I’m Bryan

I’m a regular guy who builds websites with Claude Code, for my own projects and for paying clients: local contractors, a car service, a headless Shopify store for a family flag business. I’ve been building affiliate sites since 2004, and these days I build my own funnels and my own email list too. This page and the funnel around it are ones I built myself.

I’ve been at this a long time. I got into building websites in the 90s, when I bought a wheatgrass website from a company I met at a conference in Poughkeepsie, and I’ve been in the online world since 2004. My first pages go back to the Netscape days. Then FrontPage, then Dreamweaver, then XSitePro, which I used to build niche sites for Google AdSense, years before WordPress took over. When iPods were the hot thing, I was building Amazon stores to sell them. Then WordPress, like everyone else. I’ve watched every generation of website tool come and go, and each one wanted another monthly fee. Claude Code is the first one where the only thing you need is the skill.

Building the site turned out to be the easy part. Getting it found, getting people onto a list and making sure every lead lands took me months to figure out. The Blueprint is that process, written down step by step, so you don’t have to figure it out the hard way. If a regular guy like me can get Claude Code to do this, you can too.

FAQ

Questions

I’ve bought courses before and they didn’t work. Why is this different?

It’s not a course and it’s not software. It’s one workflow, written down by a guy who uses it on real client sites. There’s nothing else you have to buy to use it.

Do I need to know how to code?

No coding background is needed to follow it. Claude Code writes the code; the Blueprint shows you what to ask it for and in what order. You will need your own Claude subscription that includes Claude Code.

What exactly do I get?

A digital PDF: my step-by-step workflow from research to launch, with the prompts, templates and checklists I use and the mistakes that cost me time. Plus four bonuses: the 45 Traps Cheat Sheet, the AI Search Check, the Replace Ahrefs & Semrush quick-start, and the Map Pack Grid & Google Business Profile audit.

What if it isn’t for me?

You’re covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee. Email me within 30 days and I’ll refund you in full. You don’t have to explain why.

Will my site rank?

I can’t promise that. Rankings depend on the niche, the competition and the work you put in. What I can give you is the same process I use.

Do I need a particular CRM?

No. The Blueprint shows how I make sure every lead lands somewhere you’ll see it, and the same idea works with whatever you already use.

How technical is it, really?

You’ll type instructions in plain English and run a few commands Claude Code tells you to run. No coding background needed, but it isn’t push-button. You do the thinking, Claude Code does the typing.

I’ve never used Claude Code. Can I still do this?

Yes. The first part of the Blueprint walks you through setting it up from scratch, and the prompts are written out for you to paste. Most people have Step 1 working in about 20 minutes.

What if I break something?

You can undo it. Claude Code can rewind its own last change, GitHub keeps every version of every file, and Replit keeps your publish history. The Blueprint sets this up in Part 1, before you build anything, so you can try things without worrying.

Do I have to keep updating plugins and security, like WordPress?

No. There are no plugins and no database. You set a short list of security settings once at launch (the Blueprint walks you through it, including how to keep them from blocking your forms and videos) and then leave them alone.

What does Claude cost?

You need a monthly Claude subscription that includes Claude Code. Anthropic sets the price, so check their pricing page for the current plans. That, a domain, hosting and the keyword data you look up (pay-as-you-go, usually cents a search) are the only running costs. No page builder, no SEO subscription.

How long until I see something?

You’ll have a page open in your own browser on day one. Getting found on Google takes longer: weeks, sometimes months, depending on the niche. The Blueprint shows what the first weeks really look like so the wait doesn’t throw you.

Do I need clients first?

No. Build your first site for yourself, a friend’s business or a test niche. Learn the process, then use it wherever you like.

How do I get it?

Instantly. After checkout you go straight to the download page, and you get an emailed receipt.

Is checkout secure?

Yes. Payment is handled by a secure third-party checkout, and your card details never touch this site.

P.S. Claude Code can build you a website. Knowing what to build, why you’re building it and how to put it all together is where the real opportunity is. That’s what the Blueprint gives you, for $17. One process, start to finish. Not another tool to learn.

P.P.S. Do the math one more time: a funnel builder at $97 a month plus an SEO tool at $139 is $2,832 a year, before you’ve built a thing. The Blueprint is $17, once. And the skill stays yours: build your own sites and funnels, or get paid to build them for others.
