I'll build your website for free
Hey everyone,
I'm Louis, maker of Cabane, a mobile-first website builder.
I'm the kind of person that has one or two product ideas a day, maybe three when I'm on a roll.
Obviously, only a few make it to the drawing board. I simply don't have time to go through every one of them, let alone build them.
In fact, I DON'T WANT to spend time on ideas if the result may not be worth it.
It has happened to me so many times before. Buying a domain name, firing up the code editor, writing a few lines, which turn into hundreds then thousands. It never gets shipped.
But... I've learned my lesson: TEST YOUR IDEA before you code anything.
Since I bet many of you share the same boat and IH has gladly helped me, I figured I would take time to give back.
So here's the deal:
Comment below with:
- Your product or service name
- Your pitch in one or two sentences
- Who is your target audience
I'll make a web page for every comment, and post the result below said comment.
If you like it, DM me your email so I can transfer it to you.
GlowAndGrow
GlowAndGrow is reflective journaling made painless and practical. Take 30 seconds a day to record what you “glowed” at, and what you can “grow” at. 🌱
Target audience: Lazy people looking for a way to journal effectively.
(Btw, I’ve barely started this idea a couple weeks ago so the target audience is still a bit rusty. Lmk if you have better ideas)
Hey Brayden, cool idea you got there. I tried journaling for 6 month but eventually stopped after 3 months. Although I'd love to start again !
Here's my GrowAndGlow landing page: https://cabane.app/brayden
I took some pictures from the web to fit the topic, but you could easily replace them :)
Also, here's a screen recording of me doing it from my phone in 3min:

Thank you so much for the demo @dotlouis! Cabane looks pretty neat. One question, how does it look on desktop? I’m on my phone right now so I can’t test it.
Thanks ! It's pretty much the same on desktop as it limits the content's width. https://res.cloudinary.com/cabane/image/upload/v1612458191/divers public/cabane.app_brayden_iPad_Pro.png
Neat - thanks for sharing!
Top10theme
This is web template marketplace. Customer can find template or website free.
Target audience: Agency, web Designer or any individual who needs web template or snippet free.
Hi mohdnadim,
In the website industry eh ? 😏 Although you may want to target a smaller audience. There are many template marketplace out there. So try to find a differential factor for it.
Here's my take on Top10theme: https://cabane.app/mohdnadim
I took pictures from the web so probably want to replace them with your own.
And the recording of how I made it: https://youtu.be/FtNVPObr-Do
Hi dotlouis,
I appreciate your efforts.
profitlists
It's in beta stage right now but I eventually want to build it into a repository of actionable info and resources on building and marketing micro companies.
target audience is founders and builders
Hey Dara, beta stage or not, you definitely needs to build an audience 🤓
So I tried to make it personal with this landing page: https://cabane.app/profitlists2
Pro-tip: do not use basic stock pictures on your website, brand yourself ! That's why I added a picture of someone (supposed to be you 😁) to make it credible.
Here's how I did it: https://youtu.be/mzfFPjbnxjo
Fun fact: the person in the picture does not actually exists (see http://thispersondoesnotexist.com)
Hey Louis
I agree, all great suggestions,
I’m in the final stages of tinkering with the final product market fit before approaching an audience,
I have been a social media hermit in the past but I guess I will have to change that. 😁
excellent work on the page.
looking forward to your launch
👍👍
Dara
Moderno
Everyone wants to come work remote in Miami. We have short-term rental apartments so they can enjoy the city in a week.
Entrepreneurs, snow birds etc.
Hi benchi, It's a dreamy business you have here. I'd love to come by Miami someday.
So I made an appropriately cheerful landing page: https://cabane.app/moderno
Tell me what you think.

Family First Dads
Community for Dads who are passionate about their careers/business while prioritizing family first.
audience: same as above
Hello Joe,
I'm not a dad yet, but I sometimes wonder how it can be possible to juggle with a business AND a family !
However it was pretty hard to come up with a good value proposition for you. Because a community can be very tough to sell when starting out. There's few people in it. And I've never done marketing for a community. So I went with my guts.
https://cabane.app/familyfirstdads
The best thing to do is to put testimonials forward. It's the human side that'll tip people over.
Here the video of how I made it in 5min: https://youtu.be/K1Iyw9OaDwE
hey! product is called MyAgent. It is a link in bio tool designed specifically for real estate agents. beyond a link in bio tool, we have a robust form builder that allows for simple, subscription free paperless sign-in sheet for open houses.
target audience is real estate agents under the age of 50
Hey Kapman,
Linnk in bio tools can be very powerful, and I like the fact you're targeting specifically real estate agents. I wonder how it'll go.
I took a screenshot from your website to make the landing page: https://cabane.app/myagent
It took me only a few minutes to set it up: https://youtu.be/JwJLSgSGNDQ
thanks so much dotlouis! will keep cabane in mind moving forward.
also really like the idea of offering mock ups as a lead gen tool...we're gonna give that a try ourselves
Hi Louis!
Product is called Trolli
Trolli is a simple extension that allows you to save products from websites and manage them in one place. Trolli will notify you if there are price changes or discounts on previously saved items.
Frugal, non impulsive online shoppers
Hi Wag,
Love the name Trolli, it sounds fun, so I dug some colorful illustrations for the landing page: https://cabane.app/trolli.
Check out how I did it: https://youtu.be/BSmvRcm7h7w
Illustrations are from the web, you should replace them for real use
Cool Stuff - love that you did it from your phone! Amazing
Thanks ! Crazy what you can do with your phone nowadays !
