Setup Fee
Learn what set-up charges are and just what their purpose in the hosting world is.
Despite of the fact that a regular shared hosting account is generally set up automatically, there are always smaller configuration jobs that are handled manually by the website hosting provider. Setting up a virtual or a dedicated server needs even additional efforts since a lot of time is spent to install and configure the hardware and software setting, then test the server to ensure its correct operation before it's handed over to the customer. To be able to cover the time spent on that, a number of providers have a set-up fee that you need to pay when you obtain your brand new hosting package. In some cases, that particular charge won't show up prior to reaching the payment page and you will not notice it before that on your main page next to the web hosting plan characteristics. In the general case, this cost is one-time and it will range from a little to a significant amount of money depending on the provider.

Setup Fee in Shared Hosting
When you get a
shared hosting plan via us, the end price that you'll have to pay during the checkout is exactly the same as the price you have already found on our home page and on every other page on our site. The processing of your payment and the account creation on our powerful cloud hosting platform are almost fully automatic, so we think that charging you any kind of installation costs will be very unreasonable. Even when you acquire a couple of accounts at one time, you won't have to spend any money for the setup or for any other hidden fees for that matter. It is our principle that being honest with each customer from the very beginning is much more important than acquiring a few more dollars.

Setup Fee in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you get a
semi-dedicated server package from our company, your first payment will be identical to all renewal payments for the next months. We don't have any kind of installation costs, or any concealed charges of any sort, for that matter. We appreciate a business partnership based on mutual trust a lot more than a few extra dollars, which means that even if you already have a shared web hosting plan here and you wish to move all of your data to a new semi-dedicated server, in order to have a more powerful hosting solution, we can do everything for you at no additional cost apart from the regular monthly cost for your new plan. The set up of a semi-dedicated account is almost entirely automated, and we consider that charging you something for that would not be justified.

Setup Fee in VPS Servers
If you decide to order a new Virtual Private Server from us, the total price that you will have to pay upon registration is identical both on our main page as well as on your bank statement. We don't charge any kind of setup fees or some other concealed fees over the VPS regular monthly rate. Although the setup takes a while, it is virtually fully automatic, so we think there is no reason to ask you for anything extra for a few more clicks on our end. In case you already have a shared website hosting account through us and you obtain a virtual server with the Hepsia Control Panel, we will transfer all of your info and even in this situation, we will never require that you pay a dime on top of the standard monthly fee for the
VPS server package.

Setup Fee in Dedicated Servers
If you order a
dedicated server through our company, all you'll need to pay is the standard monthly price for the package. We'll assemble the hardware configuration that you have chosen during the signup, we will install an OS, web server, web hosting Control Panel plus all other software that is included with our packages, then test your machine, but we will never ask you to pay anything extra for that. The price of the dedicated server you pick is always identical - on our main page, on the order page and throughout your payment process, and there will be no hidden costs of any sort. If you acquire a dedicated server using the Hepsia control panel and you already have a shared hosting account from us, we can transfer all of your data - again free of charge.
