Want to tweak the text before you go live?

Easy. Open your HTML file in a plain text editor and use Find & Replace to swap any words you want.

  • Mac: Open in TextEdit → Format → Make Plain Text → Edit → Find → Find & Replace
  • Windows: Open in Notepad → Edit → Find & Replace (or Ctrl+H)
  • Make your changes, save the file, then follow one of the paths below.

Choose your path

Don’t overthink it. Any of these will get you live. Just pick one and go.

A
Hand it to a web developer Recommended
Best result. Least effort on your end.

Download your HTML file. Email it to a developer and say:
“Use this as the content and structure for my website.”
They’ll know exactly what to do — and you’ll get a professionally built site without any tech headaches.

  • 1
    Download your HTML file using the button in your delivery email.
  • 2
    Email it to a developer with the message above. No developer? Try Upwork, Fiverr, or ask in your local business network.
  • 3
    Budget $500–$2,000 for a developer to build from this brief. Way cheaper than starting from scratch — they have all the structure already.
⏱ Your effort: about 10 minutes. Then hand it over.
B
Upload to WordPress If you already have it
Works great if your site is already running on WordPress.

Already on WordPress? You can paste your HTML directly into a new page. No plugins, no fuss.

  • 1
    Log in to your WordPress admin Usually at yoursite.com/wp-admin
  • 2
    Go to Pages → Add New
  • 3
    Click the three dots (top right) → Code Editor This switches the editor to raw HTML mode.
  • 4
    Open your HTML file in TextEdit or Notepad, select all, and paste it in.
  • 5
    Click Publish. Done.
⏱ Estimated time: 15–30 minutes if you’re comfortable in WordPress.
C
Start from scratch No website yet
You’ll need a domain, hosting, and WordPress — then follow Option B above.

No website at all yet? Here’s the simplest path from zero to live.

  • 1
    Get a domain name — go to Namecheap or GoDaddy and register yourBusinessName.com.au Expect around $20/year.
  • 2
    Get hosting — sign up at SiteGround or Crazy Domains. ~$10–$15/month. They’ll walk you through connecting your domain.
  • 3
    Install WordPress — most hosts have a one-click install. Click it.
  • 4
    Follow Option B above to upload your page.
⏱ Estimated time: 2–3 hours if you’ve never done this. Or skip it and go Option A.
