A Website Without the Subscription Trap
Most platforms charge you every month, forever — $16 to $159, climbing every time you need another feature. Ours is different: $799 to build + a flat $25/mo to keep it live (hosting, SSL, daily backups, uptime, real-human support). The fee never climbs. And because you own the site, you can cancel anytime and take your code and domain anywhere.
The honest 3-year math
Subscription pricing looks small monthly, then compounds as tiers climb. Here's what a typical DIY builder actually costs over three years — before you count your own 40–80 hours.
| Monthly / yearly | ★ The smart pick 3-year total | |
|---|---|---|
| Wix Business plan | $17–$159/mo, climbs with tiers | $612–$5,724+ |
| Squarespace Business | $16–$99/mo, climbs with tiers | $576–$3,564+ |
| Domain name | ~$15/yr | $45 |
| Typical app add-ons | $10–$40/mo | $360–$1,440 |
| 799web (build + hosting) | $799 once + $25/mo flat | $1,699 all-in |

You own it. Fully.
The $25/mo is flat forever, and because you own the site you can cancel any time and host it anywhere. We hand over the full codebase, the design files, and the domain access. Nothing is locked to a proprietary platform — move it to any standard web host, or another developer, in an afternoon.
That's the whole difference between a subscription and a real asset — one holds your site hostage, the other you own outright.
What the $25/mo covers
- Managed hosting on fast infrastructure
- SSL certificate + renewals
- Daily automated backups
- Uptime monitoring
- Real-human support for small edits
Flat forever — $25 today, $25 in year five. Cancel any time; you keep the code.
Ownership, cancellation, and the fine print.
Do I have to pay monthly?+
Yes — $25/mo keeps your site hosted, secure, backed up, and supported. It's flat forever. And because you own the site, you can cancel anytime, take the code, and host it anywhere you like.
What does the $25/mo cover?+
Managed hosting on fast infrastructure, an SSL certificate, daily backups, uptime monitoring, and real-human support. It's the same $25 in year one and year five — never tiered up, never gated behind an upgrade. You need it to keep the site live, and you're free to walk any time because you own the code.
Do I own my website?+
Fully. You own the design, the code, the content, and the domain. Unlike Wix or Squarespace, nothing is locked to a proprietary platform. If you ever want to move hosts or hand it to another developer, we hand over everything cleanly. No ransom, no export fees, no gotchas.
What if I want to cancel hosting?+
You keep the site — you just move it. We hand over the full codebase and help you migrate to any standard web host. You lose our managed hosting, backups, and support, but the website itself, the design, and the content remain yours. That's the whole point of owning your site.
Flat build. Flat hosting. No tiers, ever.
