The Free Website Isn’t

Check out the Hosting Costs

Beware of the “Free Business Website” ads on TV and the Internet. Those folks have to make money somewhere, and the somewhere is usually hosting. It’s common to wind up paying in excess of $50 per month for all of the options you  want. You can find good hosting options to do it yourself (DIY) for under $5 per month. Double Dog offers managed hosting and we handle the details for you for $19 per month. The Free Website can cost you dearly each and every month.

You’re Locked In to Their System

And that’s not all. After you spend hours building your free website and after you’ve chosen your template, uploaded your photos, entered your web copy and adjusted everything to your liking, you’re locked into the provider you have chosen. It will be next to impossible to move your site to another location. If your domain name changes or the hosting charges get even more expensive, you’ll find yourself starting all over when you decide to make a change.

We Don’t Lock You In

We specialize in WordPress websites. WordPress is an open source content management system (CMS). It is licensed freely for commercial and non-commercial use. Most DIY hosting companies such as Host Gater or GoDaddy offer one click WordPress installation on your website. It is highly extensible, and you can change the look and feel of your site while keeping the content the same in minutes. You are never locked in. And if you host your site with us but decide to move it at a later date, we will be happy to help you with that process.

Let us help you keep your options open for the future of your business growth. You’ll get a unique website – not just the same cookie-cutter template chosen by hundreds of others. You’ll look like the professional you are.
