Setup Fee
What are set-up fees and what role do they play in the world of website hosting?
When you acquire a new website hosting account, your payment is processed, the account is created and as automated as the whole process may seem, there are always some things that are handled manually. For every virtual or a dedicated server there're even more jobs to be done as these forms of web hosting often require a manual setup, software installation and configuration, checking the server platform so as to ensure that everything's working the way it should, etcetera. To pay for the cost for the time and efforts these duties take, many companies require a one-time set-up cost to be paid by their clients in addition to the charge for the shared web hosting. The charge often applies to every new web hosting account being acquired and it is very rarely given on the company’s web site, yet it appears on the checkout page.

Setup Fee in Shared Web Hosting
We never charge anything on top of the cost of the
shared web hosting that you pick, thus you won't be required to pay any installation charges or any kind of fees different from what you have already seen on the main page. We think that being honest with our customers is of key importance for establishing a long-term business relationship, that's why we'll never expect you to pay obscured charges of any type, particularly for something that's almost entirely automated and takes a few min to be performed by our system. You will not pay installation fees even if you get multiple accounts and they'll all be fully active straight away, so that you are able to start taking care of your sites. The total amount of money that you will need to pay for each of our plans is the same that you will find on our home page.

Setup Fee in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you buy a
semi-dedicated server plan through our company, you'll pay just the monthly fee that you can already see on the website. Your account will be set up on our servers and we'll activate it in a matter of minutes at no additional fee. This shall be valid for every monthly charge and whatever the total number of accounts that you buy. It's our principle that it is not reasonable to charge you extra money for an action that we have almost fully computerized, therefore you'll never find any setup charges or any other hidden charges. As a result, all of the rates that are listed on our main page, on your payment page as well as on your bank statement will always be exactly the same.

Setup Fee in VPS Servers
Our
VPS server packages don't have setup charges as well as any obscured fees of any sort. In case you obtain such a plan, we'll assemble your server, install its Operating System, web server software, MySQL, etc., and we shall give you an entirely functional machine at no additional cost. All you will have to pay will be the monthly price for the plan you've picked and that rate is the same for the subsequent months too. It's our belief that charging you additional money for a procedure that is almost totally automatic is very unreasonable, that's why the amount you see on our front page will be identical to the one that will show up on your bank statement. That is valid even if we move one or more sites from a shared hosting account to your new virtual server.

Setup Fee in Dedicated Servers
If you acquire a
dedicated server from us, all you'll need to pay will be the standard monthly fee for the plan. We'll assemble the hardware that you've picked throughout the signup, we'll set up an OS, web server, web hosting Control Panel as well as all other software that is featured with our plans, then test your machine, but we'll never ask you to pay anything extra for this. The price of the dedicated server you choose will always be identical - on the main page, on the order page and through your payment process, and there'll be no hidden charges of any type. When you obtain a dedicated server equipped with our Hepsia control panel and you already have a shared hosting account from us, we can transfer all of your data - again at no extra cost.
