Stop paying for Linktree: the real cost of owning your link-in-bio

Run the numbers with me. A creator selling on Instagram typically pays:

• Linktree Pro: ~$9/month to remove their branding and see analytics.
• Bitly (or another shortener): ~$10/month for trackable links.
• A capture tool (Mailchimp, ConvertKit…): $13+/month.

That’s $350+ per year — for tools that keep YOUR data on THEIR servers. Cancel, and you lose everything: click history, list, pages.

The alternative that used to be too expensive (until 2025)

You could always build this custom. The problem: a developer would charge $1,000+ for the project. The math didn’t work.

What changed: AI agents like Claude Code write the code for you. You command in plain language, it builds. I know because that is exactly how this site was born.

What aryrabelo.com does (and your site could do)

• Self-hosted link-in-bio at /l/[slug] — sections, themes, click analytics.
• Trackable shortener at /r/[slug] — I know which post drove each click, with UTM and campaign attribution.
• Capture pages at /g/[keyword] — Instagram’s “COMMENT X” funnel lands here and becomes an email on my list.
• Hosting cost: $0/month on Cloudflare’s free tier.

”But I can’t code”

I didn’t write most of this site’s code — Claude did. My job was to say what I wanted, review, and approve. It’s a new skill, closer to delegation than to programming.

I’m building a course that teaches exactly this process, from zero to a live site: Your Funnel Site with Claude Code. To get notified about the pre-sale (with a discount), join the waitlist.

No subscription wasted. No click lost.
