“I had a portfolio from v0 but no idea how to get off localhost. The guide got me to a live URL in one weekend.”
“I'm not a developer — I used AI to build my site. Expert chat answered my hosting questions when the docs didn't.”
“Knowing website vs web app upfront saved me from setting up a database I didn't need.”
Not a certificate or a course — a real project on the internet.
This works best if you already have a simple website or app — even one you built with AI. We help you publish it online. We do not build your app for you or fix bugs in your code.
You absolutely can learn pieces for free. Many beginners still pay for LaunchGuide because deployment is a chain of small decisions — and free content rarely matches your exact project, stack, and year.
Not sure yet? Read our free guides first. Pay when you want the full walkthrough and a clear finish line.

Optional: 30-day expert chat
30 days of human expert chat support for hosting and deployment steps. Buy it anytime from your dashboard — support time starts when you pay.
Hosting platforms we use offer free tiers — you do not pay them for basic hosting. Your $9.99 guide fee covers our step-by-step instructions. Expert chat is an optional $49.99 add-on.
Guide and support have separate 7-day refund windows if unused. See our refund policy.
Yes — for individual concepts. LaunchGuide is for when you want one ordered path (not ten conflicting tutorials), steps that match your track, and optional human help when a dashboard changed or a build log scares you. Our free guides let you preview the approach before you pay.
You do not need to buy hardware. Many hosting platforms offer a free tier that acts as your server in the cloud. LaunchGuide walks you through signing up, connecting your code, and getting a live URL — step by step.
Many cloud platforms offer free tiers for small projects. The guide shows you how to use them. You pay LaunchGuide for the guide — expert chat is an optional add-on.
Yes. The guide assumes you are a beginner. You do not need to be a professional developer.
Buy the optional expert chat add-on from your dashboard. A real person helps with hosting and deployment steps — not debugging your application code. Support time starts when you pay, even if you bought the guide weeks earlier.
Guide access is valid for 12 months from when you pay. After that, renew the guide for $7.99 to get another 12 months and the latest edition. Expert chat is optional and capped at 3 purchases per guide cycle.
Yes — for small personal projects, a free-tier hosting account is usually enough to start. LaunchGuide helps you pick the right track (website or web app) and publish without switching platforms mid-course.
Store your code in an online repository, connect it to a hosting provider's free tier, and wait for a live status. The guide covers each step in plain language — no professional developer experience required.
Most beginners never buy a physical server. A free hosting tier on a cloud platform runs your site 24/7 (with fair-use limits). LaunchGuide teaches one consistent stack so you are not guessing which service to use.
Some platforms require a card even for free tiers; others do not. The guide explains what to expect at each step.
Yes. You can add support anytime while your guide is active and at least 30 days of guide access remain. Expert chat never extends past your 12-month guide end date. Buying another extension adds 30 days from your current support end date. During the grace period, a new purchase starts a fresh 30-day expert window.
If you bought expert chat, support ends after 30 days, then you get 7 extra days (grace period). After that, guide and chat lock until you renew. Guide access lasts 12 months from payment either way.
Store your code in an online repository, connect it to a hosting provider's static site option on the free tier, and wait for a live status. LaunchGuide walks through each click — see our free deploy overview in Guides.
Yes. Many beginners start with AI-generated code on localhost. LaunchGuide assumes no professional dev experience and covers code storage, cloud hosting, and optional database setup in plain language.
Store the AI-generated project in an online repository, connect free-tier cloud hosting, and deploy until you get a public URL. LaunchGuide walks beginners through each click — see our free guide on putting an AI-built project online, or buy the full step-by-step path.
Many cloud platforms offer free tiers that act as a free server for small sites and apps. You still need code storage plus hosting. LaunchGuide teaches one consistent free-tier stack so you are not guessing which provider to use — start with our free hosting comparison in Guides.
Code storage keeps your project files safe online. Hosting runs your site and gives you a public URL. You need both: storage holds the files, hosting serves them to visitors.
No. A portfolio, blog, or landing page usually only needs an online repository plus static site hosting. A database service is for web apps that save data or require login.
You keep the guide edition you purchased for your access period. If free-tier policies or setup steps change materially, we may publish a new edition. You can upgrade from your dashboard for $7.99 (same as renewal) — your access end date stays the same.
Expert chat requires at least 30 days of guide access remaining. Each purchase gives up to 30 days of chat, but chat always ends when your 12-month guide period ends — you cannot get a full 30-day window if fewer than 30 days remain.
If your guide access has expired, renew for $7.99 to get another 12 months and the latest edition. The mid-cycle edition upgrade ($7.99) is only available while your guide is still active.
