in this video I'm going to show you seven different free AI tools you can use to help you get your new website created and launched fast you'll see how to use each one and how they fit

together in creating your brand new site and I'll even show you the best AI website builder I've found so you can just start there and then customize it with your own stuff but first we need to

talk about what kind of site your business needs and why it's probably going to take more than one AI tool to get it for you the best way to explain it is when you buy a new photo frame at

the store it's a nice frame and a perfectly nice looking photo inside it but you wouldn't hanging on the wall like this right the photo it came with doesn't mean anything and there are a

ton of one-step AI website Builders out there that are just going to spit out a website that's going to have just about as much of a connection to you as this photo does and sure the site may look

clean and professional at first glance but it's missing the bigger picture a great website isn't great just because it looks like a website it's the Strategic blend of the right Pages

sections and words that turns visitors into clients so rather than relying on one tool that's going to give you something that you'll just have to

replace here are the seven that you can use together to get the whole picture so the first step here is figuring out the pages you need and the sections that

should go on each of them so reloom AI website builder is great for helping helping you figure all of this out so you're just going to start by giving it all the basics about your business but

get as detailed as you can here the more you can tell it about what you offer the more specific your end result is going to be then it really quickly starts

putting together your sit map a site map is just the most basic structure of the pages and the sections that go on those pages and this is using AI to figure all

of it out so it may not be 100% what you need and that's okay you can reorder sections delete them add a new section whatever you need then when you've got

it where you think you need it just click the wireframes tab and here it actually creates the initial layout and words for every section on the page if

you don't like one or you would just rather see other options just click on replace component and you can choose another layout this tool does give you a great AI starting point that you can

tweak and customize until it's just right but to be honest it's writing really isn't the best but don't worry there's a better tool you can use for that now this tool will come as a

surprise to absolutely nobody it's the most obvious one on the list but honestly it's here because it does a great job of helping you write even when you don't really know what you want to

say so what I'd recommend you do here is just go Section by section following your wireframe then ask Chad gbt to write each each section one at a time start by telling it as much as possible

about your business you know everything that you offer what sets you apart who your customers are the problems they have all that good stuff then you just

want to tell it to write the first section describing what components are needed like write a hero header section I need a headline a short description

underneath and a call to action button you can then specify the tone that you want it to use like how casual or professional is it do you want it to sound like a certain brand you like just

say so and if you want more guidance on how to use chat GPT to write your whole site for you I do have a whole video about that and I'm going to leave a link to that video in the description below

okay so once you've got the overall layout and the words for your site let's talk design cuz it's got to look good too right now the first thing that I like to nail down in any website design

is the color scheme and aol.co is my new favorite way of generating custom colors and it's super easy to use so when you get here the first thing I

recommend doing is switching The View over from this you know dashboard looking screen over to the landing page example from here you can browse color palettes that other people have

generated under the new or top tabs but the even cooler thing is you can enter in a prompt to have it make something just for you so I'd give it some descriptive words you like people to

feel about your brand you know things like trustworthy or quirky or playful you can mention the overall Vibe you want like Hightech or subdued and if you

have any colors you like or colors you don't like say that here too then just click on generate and see what you get and don't worry if it's not right you can just try again until you get

something you do like now what I love about this generator is that it doesn't just give you a bunch of colors it actually shows you how to use them like this should be the background this

should be the primary color this is the accent so you can actually use your colors the way a pro designer would now it's time to bring the real visual

personality to the party with custom images that are going to help you tell your story your way so used to be you'd have to you know pay for stock images or

limit or be limited by the free ones that are floating around that pretty much everyone else is using then when AI image generation came around most were kind of hard to use like mid Journey

others you have to pay for like the pro version of chat GPT but this one called idiogram is completely free for up to 25 prompts per day it makes absolutely

beautiful images and it's super easy to use just tell it what you want an image of like a happy couple eating ice cream in the park you can say what style you

want and if you want it to be vertical square or horizontal and it's going to give you four options to choose from so if you don't like your first options just either refine your prompt or keep

clicking generate until it's just how you want it then you would just do that for all the images you need on your whole site and you're legally allowed to use them and it didn't cost you a cent now of course no website's complete

without your most important branding piece which is your logo so maybe you have one that's outdated or maybe you're new and you don't have one at all well

brandmark doio is going to take care of all all that for you in just a few minutes first you're just going to pop in your brand name some keywords this is where I would include your industry or

Niche words as well as any words that describe your brand again are you trying to convey trust fun quirkiness professionalism you know that kind of thing next you'll choose the style and

you can also choose a primary color so since you have your color palette now it might be good to choose based on that then it'll generate all kinds of initial concepts for you I would just find one

that you like for any reason whether it's the font the colors or the icon then click on ideas underneath it from there you can change all the parts that you don't like until you get to the

winning combination so what if you wanted to add a tailor made feature to your WordPress site but you don't know how to code and if you're like me you don't even want to know that is where

code WP comes in so it's perfect for businesses wanting to add a unique touch to their website without any of the coding hassle let's say you're running a landscaping business and you want to

offer a custom pricing tool on your site well with code WP you can easily create any kind of an interactive form that's going to calculate Landscaping project

costs based on user inputs like yard size and services required you simply describe what you need using words just like using chat GPT and then code WP

generates all the code for you then you just download the code import it into your word press dashboard and now you've got a sophisticated feature that really enhances user engagement and makes you

look like the professional business that you are so I've played around with a lot of AI website Builders over this past year and most of them are just kind of

meh you know and to be clear when they say they're using AI they're pretty much just writing really barebones AI content and they're slotting it into the same

couple allpurpose templates that they just give to everybody so to call it AI is being pretty generous here but durable is definitely the best version

of this that I've seen yet so all you're going to do is you're going to start by filling in the basics about your business then it generates your whole homepage section by section including

all the images and all the written content and from there you can then just edit everything as you need to so I recommend taking the wireframes that you got earlier and just making sure sure

that you add each section you need if it's not already here so you would do that by just clicking add section where you want it then pick out the section block type that serves your content the

best and of course you can change every image and text block just by clicking on it and replacing it and you can easily change your color scheme and your fonts

too but of course these are all really just tools that you can use to help you get to your goal and if that goal is more clients in your business then you really need to start with the right

strategy luckily I've got you covered there with my free on demand masterclass training the clients on demand website blueprint so I'm going to show you every

important page your website needs what should go on those pages and what you better leave out if you don't want to scare them off so click right here to save your seat in the training and I'm

going to send you your access as soon as you do that so I'll see you inside
