Hosted Website Plans - FAQ's (Launched Feb 2021)
IS THERE A SET UP FEE?
No, there is no setup fee.
CAN I CHOOSE MY DOMAIN NAME?
Yes, you use whatever domain name you want! Once you are ready to publish your site to your custom domain name (rather than the temporary url we provide you) you can! Instructions will pop up in the website editor dashboard when you select this option, and you’ll just follow the instructions. You’ll need access to your domain settings in GoDaddy and make an update. Don’t know what your doing – no worries! You can request a one time courtesy domain pointing from us and can assist you.
IS IDX INCLUDED? CAN I ADD IT IN THE FUTURE?
Our new sites do not come with idx included. After much feedback from our clients, we’ve found that many like the OPTION of having a lower price site and the CHOICE to add idx at a later time IF they want the additional cost; therefore we have unbundled it from our subscription price thus lowering dramatically the price point of this product. You can EASILY add idx to your new site, but you will just need to signup with an idx provider separately (the idx provider will charge for idx separately). We can recommend a few and pass on our preferred partner savings as well – just send us an email!
Our preferred partner for these new sites is Idxbroker! We tested their product on our new sites and love the way it displays.
Should you choose to signup with idxbroker, please use our partner link as you will enjoy "no setup fee" incentive with them by using our partner link: https://signup.idxbroker.com/d/AGENTCRATE
Here is an example page of one of our hosted sites w/ sample idx search box and featured listings to give you an idea of the display. https://testing-site-ac.multiscreensite.com/example-page-w/-idx
**IMPORTANT** Should you decide to sign up with an alternative idx provider, ensure their product is for NON wordpress sites.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET MY WEBSITE ONLINE?
Once you complete your checkout, our team will send you a link to your new site in the BASE TEMPLATE that you selected! This email will arrive within 1 business day. Once you receive the link, you can log in to your new site and start customizing it yourself with the easy to use editor! Our clients love these new sites – as they have the ability to make changes to their sites themselves, add SEO keywords, add pages and so much more!
IS HOSTING INCLUDED?
Yes, hosting is included.
CAN I ADD BLOG POSTS TO THE SITE?
Yes! You will have the ability to add blog posts to your site!
CAN I ADD POP UPS OR LEAD CAPTURE FORMS?
You can add elements, such as pop-ups and email capture forms to your site!
ARE THERE ANY ADDITIONAL FEES?
Only if you choose to install a “paid” app to your site. For example, the site may offer some optional apps preloaded that may offer a free trial. If you choose to add one of those apps to the site, once the free trial is over the charge for the paid app you select will be invoiced to you. Additionally, if you sign up with an idx provider to obtain idx — that idx provider will bill you separately.
IS THERE A LONG TERM COMMITMENT?
We offer a month-to-month service where you can cancel anytime to prevent future billings! However, for even more value savings, we do offer longer term, annual, memberships as well.
