How I Built 8 Niche Tool Sites in 4 Months With Zero Coding Experience

I'm a 28-year-old from rural China. No coding experience. No English skills. $100K in debt.

Four months ago, I quit my sales job and decided to try something crazy: build online tool websites using only AI.

What I Built

8 niche tool sites, all written by AI:

• LivePhotoKit — HEIC/WebP converter
• FreeTDEE — calorie calculator
• iWorkViewer — Apple file viewer info
• InvoicePad — free invoice generator
• PlantingCalendar — planting schedule tool
• ZonePlan — hardiness zone lookup
• BabyPercent — baby growth percentile
• PupVax — puppy vaccination tracker

The Tech Stack

• AI (Claude/ChatGPT) writes all the code
• Cloudflare Pages handles hosting (free)
• Google AdSense for monetization
• Zero manual coding — I describe what I want, AI builds it

Where I'm At Now

• All 8 sites verified in Google Search Console
• AdSense review submitted for all 8
• Still waiting for the first dollar
• 3 digital products for sale on Payhip

What I Learned

1. You don't need to code. AI is good enough now.
2. Google SEO is fair — it doesn't randomly ban you like Chinese platforms
3. The hardest part isn't building — it's waiting for Google to index you
4. Consistency beats brilliance

My Products

I packaged everything I learned:

• 50 AI Prompts for Creators ($12)
• AI Website Builder Playbook ($29)
• 50 AI Prompts for Sales & Closing Deals ($14.99)
