COSTS & RESPONSIBILITIES
Know what
you are paying for.
Website design, the domain and hosting are separate parts of the solution. You choose and arrange domain registration, domain connection and hosting directly with your providers. Their fees and renewals are paid separately from the website service.
Website & price ↗- Website
- You pay me the agreed website price: a one-off $699 USD. You pay 100% after completion and approval, before the agreed files and guide are handed over. No advance payment is required.
- Domain
- You pay registration and renewals directly with the domain provider from the first year. The domain is registered in your name or your business name.
- Hosting
- You pay for the selected hosting solution. The price depends on the provider and service. You clarify both the initial and ongoing cost with your hosting provider.
SETUP & INSTALLATION
From a name online
to a complete website.
You or your chosen provider arrange the technical setup: domain registration, hosting, file upload and domain connection. Your agreed website files are supplied for handover.
- 01
Choose your domain.
Find an available name, register it with your provider and keep your account details safe.
- 02
Choose hosting.
You choose and set up hosting with a provider yourself. If you already have hosting, ask your provider whether it supports the website.
- 03
Publish your website.
You or your hosting provider publish the website files. You or your provider are responsible for hosting setup and management.
- 04
Connect the address.
Set the domain’s DNS records to the hosting provider’s instructions. This connects the name to the website.
- 05
Prepare for visitors.
HTTPS provides an encrypted connection. We review the presentation and contact options before launch.
No app required.
You and your customers open the website directly in a browser on desktop, iPad or mobile. Visitors generally do not need to install anything. Setup takes place with your domain and hosting providers.
Already have a domain?
Keep your existing domain if it suits your business. Your domain and hosting providers can advise on connecting it to your hosting. You retain ownership and control of those accounts. Do not send passwords by email.
OPTIONAL HELP AFTER LAUNCH
Content that grows
with your business.
Your website costs a one-off $699 USD. If you need ongoing content changes, you can add up to 5 small content updates per month for $19 USD/month, payable in advance on the 1st of each calendar month. Email me new offers, discounts, your address, opening hours or contact details and I will return the updated website files. You or your hosting provider publish the changes. Domain and hosting are paid separately.
You can cancel the optional update service by emailing mailakshaydk@gmail.com.
Email about the update service ↗What is DNS?
DNS settings connect a domain name with the service it should display. Your hosting provider supplies the correct values.
Can I use separate domain and hosting providers?
Yes. You or your provider connect them through the domain settings using your hosting provider’s instructions.
Do I automatically get email on my domain?
Email on your own domain is a separate part of the setup and depends on the provider and subscription. We discuss this if you would like business email.
Is the $19 USD/month required?
No. The website costs a one-off $699 USD. You only add updates if you want ongoing content support.
Who arranges the domain and hosting?
You arrange domain registration, renewals, domain connection and hosting directly with your providers. They can help with the technical setup. The website service covers the agreed design and development work.
