---

It edits the site it built. Knowing the edge of that is the fastest way to stop fighting it.

## What it is

One job, done well.

- **It edits the site it built**, page by page, in plain English.
- **It changes words, images, sections and layouts.**
- **It publishes to your live site** when you tell it to.

## What it is not

Three things it will not become.

- **It is not a general code editor.** You cannot hand it an unrelated codebase.
- **It will not add a bespoke application** to your site - a booking engine of your own design, a customer database, a calculator with your business logic in it.
- **It is not a design tool** you drag boxes around in. You describe the outcome and it draws it.

## If you need something outside that

We will say so rather than take the plan money.

- **A custom build is the right lane** for anything bespoke.
- **Ask before you buy.** Email team@noboringsites.com and describe what you need.
- **Holding both is normal.** A build can be hosted and edited on a plan afterwards.

## Things people ask for that it does do

Worth checking before you assume it is out of scope.

- **A new page**, including one that did not exist in the first draft.
- **A contact form** that delivers to your address.
- **A section reordered**, resized or removed.
- **Every word on the site rewritten**, for free.
