After you buy

What happens after you buy

Payment goes through and the site is yours. Here is the whole path, in order, with nothing left to guess.

Buying is done. Your receipt and your license key are already on the way from Lemon Squeezy, the merchant of record. Nothing else is owed and nothing renews.

1. The email

Two things arrive in your inbox: a receipt, and a download link with your license key. That key is the Serial of your copy, printed in the site’s own manifest. Keep the email.

If it is not there in a few minutes, look in the spam folder, then write to the forge and it will be sent again.

2. The download

One archive with the whole site in it: every page, the pictures, the owner toolbar, the style presets, and the guides. Unzip it somewhere you will find it again.

3. The guide in the box

Open README first. It is written for someone who has never touched a website before, one step at a time: put the files online, point your own address at them, change the words, swap the pictures, set your email.

4. Your own name on it

The site ships under your business, not the forge’s. The owner toolbar changes the words, the colours and the pictures on the front page from the page itself, and publishes what you change.

5. The AI, if you want it

Your copy can answer your own customers day and night, in your own words, once you paste in a key from an AI provider. That is one box in your hosting dashboard and it is written out step by step in the guide. Leave it empty and the site works exactly as it does without it.

What is not included

Hosting and your domain name are yours, bought from whoever you like. The guide names the free and cheap ways to do both. The forge does not resell either, so nothing is marked up.

The fine print, said plainly

One site, one business, yours to change however you like: the whole of it is on the license page. Sold as-is, and all sales are final, which is why the demo is there to walk first, see the terms of sale.

Something wrong, or something missing

Write to the forge at fireforgesite@gmail.com or through the contact page, with your license key in the message.

Ask

The front desk

Ask anything about these sites: what comes in the box, what it costs, what it takes to run one. Answers are drawn from this site's own words.

Your question is sent to the AI service this site is connected to, so it can be answered. It is not stored here and it is not used to identify you. Rather talk to a person?
