Questions to ask before signing any website contract
- Is the domain registered in my name?
- What does hosting cost after the first year?
- Are updates and backups included?
- How are small text or image changes billed?
- Is there a minimum term?
- Which external services have their own subscription?
Check ownership and lock-in
A cheap starting price can become costly if domain access, content or technical credentials are difficult to transfer later.
Is Website Care mandatory?+
No. It is optional and can be cancelled at any time.
Do I need monthly SEO?+
Not always. Some businesses need a strong technical/content foundation and periodic improvements; highly competitive markets may justify ongoing work.
