Setup Fee
Learn what set-up fees are as well as what their role in the hosting community is.
Despite of the fact that an average shared web hosting account is generally set up automatically, there are still small configuration duties which are done manually by the web hosting provider. The set up of a virtual or a dedicated server usually requires even additional efforts since a considerable amount of time is spent to install and configure the hardware and software setting, then test the machine so as to ensure its correct operation prior to it being given to the customer. To be able to cover the amount of time spent on that, many companies have a set-up fee that you are required to pay at the time you order your new web hosting plan. In many cases, that particular charge won't appear prior to reaching the payment page and you will not notice it before that on the main page next to the website hosting plan features. In the general case, this cost is one-time and it will vary from a little to a significant amount of money depending on the provider.

If you buy an account, we'll process your payment right away and then the account will be created and activated from our system straight away.

Setup Fee in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our
semi-dedicated server packages do not have any setup charges, so if you get your new account, your total fee for the first month is identical for the future renewals. Considering the fact that it takes us several min to create and activate your new semi-dedicated account, we think that it wouldn't be justified to charge you anything for that. You will see the very same amount on our main page, on your payment page and also on your bank or PayPal statement and you will not ever be required to pay any additional charges. If you already have an ordinary shared web hosting account with our company and you want a more powerful solution, we can even relocate all your content to the new semi-dedicated account free of cost.

Setup Fee in VPS Servers
Our
VPS server plans don't have setup fees as well as any hidden fees of any sort. In case you purchase such a plan, we will assemble the server, install its OS, web server software, MySQL, etcetera, and we will give you a completely functional device without any additional expenses. All you'll have to pay is the standard monthly cost for the plan you've chosen and that price is exactly the same for the following months as well. It's our belief that charging you additional money for a process that's almost fully automatic is very unreasonable, that's why the amount you can find on our home page will be identical to the one that will show up on your bank statement. That is valid even when we move one or more sites from a shared hosting account to your brand new virtual server.

Setup Fee in Dedicated Servers
When you purchase a
dedicated server from our company, we'll set up your machine free of charge. The fee that you can find and pay is identical on our site, on the payment page as well as on your bank statement, plus the amount you'll pay during the signup is the same as the one you'll pay to renew your package in the future. We will give you a ready-to-use server, which is assembled and tested, and which includes all the required software in advance - OS, web server, MySQL, FTP, plus website hosting Control Panel when you have selected one through the signup, still all these tasks are done free of charge. We will even move your info without additional charge if you acquire the dedicated server with the Hepsia Control Panel and you already have an ordinary shared hosting plan from our company.
