Or pay monthly
about $31.67 a month
for 12 months with a $200 site, starting in month 1. That spreads your website and a year of hosting into 12 small monthly payments, at no extra cost. The monthly plan has no free months.
Example: a $200 launch promo site
$200 + $180 = $380 over 12 months, or about $31.67 a month.
After that, hosting and services is $15 a month.
Example: a $350 site
$350 + $180 = $530 over 12 months, or about $44.17 a month.
After that, hosting and services is $15 a month.
After 12 monthly payments, the website is yours.
