Every platform in my digital ecosystem has a specific job. There is no single best website builder. There is only the best one for the outcome you want. As I have built projects, tested ideas, and refined the Build a Peak system, four platforms have proven themselves over and over again.
Each one supports a different part of my workflow. Together they give me speed, flexibility, and structure without unnecessary complexity.
Shopify
Shopify is my default choice for anything involving ecommerce. When the goal is to sell a product, I want stability, simple management, and a checkout experience I can trust.
Why I use Shopify
• Fast and reliable checkout
• Stable inventory and product management
• Built in conversion focused design
• Scales without heavy customization
• A strong ecosystem of apps and integrations
Any time I launch a product line or create a dedicated store, Shopify is the platform that keeps the operation running without friction.
Beehiiv
Beehiiv is the home for my personal storytelling. This is where I share what I am building, what I am learning, and the real thinking behind my projects. It is the most direct connection point in my ecosystem.
Why I use Beehiiv
• Clean and distraction free writing space
• Strong deliverability
• Simple audience growth tools
• Easy publishing workflow
• Ideal for narrative content and updates
The newsletter is one of my strongest channels because it carries the voice of the journey. Beehiiv makes it effortless to focus on the message instead of the mechanics.
WordPress
WordPress powers my main site at buildapeak.com. This is my hub for SEO, service pages, evergreen content, and long term authority building.
Why I use WordPress
• Reliable SEO foundation
• Full control over site structure and hierarchy
• Easy creation of topic clusters and resource hubs
• Flexible enough for any type of content
• Built for long term scalability
WordPress is the discoverability engine. While Beehiiv speaks to people already following the story, WordPress helps new people find me.
Canva
Canva has become one of my most efficient tools for quick pages and visual concepts. With Canva Forms now available, it is even stronger for simple lead capture and landing pages.
Why I use Canva
• Fast creation of clean landing pages
• Zero development required
• Consistent visual quality
• Easy duplication for experiments
• Instant share links for rapid testing
When I want to validate a concept or launch a lightweight one page experience, Canva gives me speed without sacrificing clarity.
