How I Cloned a $19,000/Month Website Using AI in 24 Hours

🎬 “How I Cloned a $19,000/Month Website Using AI in 24 Hours – No Coding!”

🔥I just cloned a website that’s making $19,000 a month... from a single page.

I’ve never built a website before, and here’s the crazy part—
I used AI to do it in under 24 hours.

🎯 The original site?

CompressJPEG.com—pulling 1.9 million visitors monthly.
With a basic ad RPM of $10, they’re raking in five figures using Google Ads alone.
And I replicated their entire model—with upgrades—without touching a line of code.
In this video, I’ll show you step-by-step how I built it, monetized it, and set up Stripe for premium plans.

⚠️ Problem Setup:Most people think you need a complex site, tons of pages, or flashy features to make money online.

That’s dead wrong.
Sometimes, the simplest websites are the most profitable.
CompressJPEG is literally one page, one function—image compression.
And it’s earning over $600 a day.
So here’s how I cloned it… and how you can do the same.

🛠️ Step 1: Initial Setup –

First, I used AI to spin up a minimal web app interface.
No design fluff—just a clean drag-and-drop uploader for JPEG files.
The prompt included multi-file upload, previews, and validation to block non-JPEGs.
Within minutes, I had a working front-end with upload capability and placeholder previews.
It wasn’t pretty—but it worked.

🧪 Step 2: Debugging Upload & Download – 

But of course, it broke immediately.
Previews weren’t showing, and downloads didn’t work.
I told the AI exactly what was broken, and it rewired the logic.
Now, images preview instantly, and compressed files are downloadable in one click.
All without touching raw code.

📦 Step 3: Smarter Uploader – 

Next, I needed this thing to handle big batches of images.
I prompted the AI to support drag-and-drop, manual selection, and file size limits.
The result? A smooth, cross-browser uploader that even works on weak networks.
Users can drop in 20+ images and keep moving.

🔧 Step 4: Real Image Compression – 

Up next: compression itself.
The AI implemented a JPEG compression algorithm and added a quality slider.
Now users can control file size vs. quality, with options like “Best Quality” or “Web Optimized.”
It even shows the original vs. compressed file size—satisfying and useful.

⏳ Step 5: Batch Processing Fix – 

The app choked on large batches at first—freezing up or crashing entirely.
So I had the AI implement asynchronous batch processing with a queue system.
Now it compresses images one at a time, shows progress bars, and handles failures smoothly.
Way more scalable, especially for real users.

🖼️ Step 6: Visual Comparison Tools – 

Then came the fun part—visual feedback.
I asked the AI to let users compare original vs. compressed images.
It built a drag-to-compare slider, toggle buttons, and visual stats like % size reduction.
This made the tool interactive and sticky, boosting engagement.

🧱 Step 7: UI, UX & User Accounts – 

With the core working, I moved on to user experience.
I had the AI generate a landing page with a hero section, tagline, and description.
Then I prompted it to add user authentication—signup, login, and basic user tracking.
All styled clean, minimal, and mobile-friendly.

💰 Step 8: Google Ads for Monetization – 

Time to make money.
I asked the AI to embed Google AdSense in the sidebar and footer—but only after compression.
Why? Because it avoids cluttering the UI while still capturing value from free users.
With 100k+ monthly users, this model can earn $3K–$10K/month from ads alone.

💳 Step 9: Stripe for Premium Plans – 

Finally, I wanted recurring revenue.
I prompted the AI to integrate Stripe, and it built a checkout system for premium users.
Subscriptions unlock unlimited compression and faster processing.
Users get email receipts and their accounts are upgraded instantly.
All with zero manual setup.

🔁 Wrap-Up Recap – 

In less than a day, I went from idea to launch.
The app now supports:

• Drag-and-drop image uploads

• Batch JPEG compression with adjustable quality

• Visual comparisons and stats

• User accounts and subscriptions

• Google AdSense monetization

• And it’s all powered by AI—no coding required.

🧠 Final Takeaway – 

This proves that you don’t need experience, a dev team, or weeks of time.
With the right AI prompts, you can build money-making tools that solve real problems—fast.
Simplicity + traffic = income.
And the best part? You can start today.
