How do I publish and run a site built with v0, Bolt, Lovable or Cursor without paying much?

Build the site in your AI tool as static files (a folder such as dist/ or out/ with index.html in it), then publish that folder with siteon deploy. Siteon paid plans include hosting, forms and owner editing from $4/month per site, so you don't need to keep a builder subscription just to keep the site online. Anything that needs a server, such as API routes, a database or server-side rendering, does not run on Siteon hosting.

Before you start: is your site static?

Siteon hosting serves files. It works when the build produces plain HTML, CSS, JavaScript and images.

Your projectWhat to do
Plain HTML, or a static site generator (Astro, Eleventy, Hugo and so on)Build it and publish the output folder
A Vite + React or Vue app (typical for Bolt and Lovable)Run npm run build and publish dist/. Pre-render each route as HTML if visitors open deep links directly (see the limits below)
Next.js (typical for v0)Use static export (output: 'export' in next.config), then publish out/
Needs a database, login, API routes or server-side renderingThose parts don't run on Siteon hosting. Keep them where they are, or keep using the builder's hosting

To get the code out of the tool, use its download or GitHub export, then build it on your machine. If you work in Cursor or Claude Code, you already have the code.

Steps

1. Build the static files

npm install
npm run build      # produces dist/ or out/

2. Create the site and publish

npx -y siteon-cli login               # first time only
siteon sites create hanaya --name "Hanaya"
siteon hosting enable --site hanaya          # first time only
siteon deploy ./dist --site hanaya           # published at https://hanaya.siteun.com/

Only changed files are uploaded, and the live site switches over once everything has arrived. Changes reach every page within 15 seconds.

3. Add what the site needs to keep running

4. Roll back if something breaks

siteon deploys --site hanaya     # list versions (* is live)
siteon rollback --site hanaya    # back to the previous version

You can hand all of this to the AI agent that built the site: it can run the same commands through the CLI or the MCP server.

The Free plan can publish too, at <name>.siteun.com, indexed by search engines, with a "Made with Siteon" badge in a corner of the page. Custom domains and badge removal start at $4. Going over the request limit never takes the site offline. For how this compares with the hosting offered by AI site builders, see AI site builders' hosting compared.
