* The first three months are payable; after that, you can stop whenever you like, at the end of the month. The site becomes yours after 12 months’ subscription: if you leave earlier, you keep your domain name but not the site. ** Turnaround for changes is a guide, in working days, and may be longer for larger requests. Nothing to pay until you have seen your site: the first month is paid when it goes live. *** Payment goes to your bank account, through your bank’s system: WebSeed takes nothing from your sales, only your bank’s fees apply. VAT not applicable (French micro-business scheme).
What a website costs over three years
Market price ranges, taken from our article on what a tradesperson’s website costs (in French), brought to three years with hosting and maintenance included.
| Option | Over three years | Left to you |
|---|---|---|
| WebSeed, Présence plan | $1,044 | Nothing: copy, changes, hosting and domain included |
| WebSeed, Visibilité plan | $1,764 | Nothing, and your Google Business Profile kept up to date |
| Freelancer or small studio | $600 to $4,750 | Hosting and maintenance, billed separately |
| Local agency | $3,000 to $10,250 | Hosting and maintenance, billed separately |
A subscription is the option where you pay nothing upfront, where copy and changes are included, and where the site becomes yours after a year.
Questions
Commitment, ownership, options
Why a subscription rather than a build price?
So you have nothing to pay upfront: you see your site before paying anything, and the first month is paid when it goes live. In return, the first three months are payable. After that, you stop whenever you like, at the end of the month.
Do I own the site?
The domain name, yes, from day one: it is registered in your name. The site is handed over to you after twelve months’ subscription; you then leave with its files, ready to be hosted elsewhere. If you leave earlier, you keep the domain but not the site, unless you pay the remaining months.
Can I change plans?
To a higher plan, at any time: the new price applies from the following month. To a lower plan, after the first year.
What about an extra page, or a version in another language?
Two options, for every plan: an extra page for $5 a month, a bilingual site for $15 a month, translation included.
Are there hidden costs?
No. Hosting, security certificate, backups, domain name and its renewal are included. A redesign or a new feature gets a quote, which you are free to accept or not. VAT not applicable.
