Why a website rental service ?

After working for many years in the web industry (North America and Europe), I saw the same thing happening over and over again. Client struggling to pay for a professional website for thousands of $. Many of them were starting a new business and did not always have all the founds required for a website, the advertisement, the marketing...the whole lot.

So I decided to create a "rent a website" service, a more strategic and cost effective solution.

For many small businesses, this means having a professional website, and not one done by the cousin of the neighbors in his garage.
For small and medium businesses, renting a website also means that you can preserve your cash flow; and this is an important part.

Not spending thousands on your website, especially at the beginning of your business when you might not even have clients yet, can be a real saver. You can now invest more of your money in things that are usually overlooked, like marketing and advertisement. If nobody knows about you, it doesn't matter that you offer the best product in your domain...

We defined our prices on the web development market and divided that for a duration of 2 years. Which means that in the first 2 years of renting your website, you will be under budget compared to the option of buying a website. The idea behind this is that the web technologies are moving so fast that most businesses should redo their website every 2 to 3 years. Therefore, it only makes sense to rent a website.

Even when you own a website, you still need to pay for things like hosting, maintenance and support.

Still not convinced ? Have a look at our website at www.RentWebsite.com to see more on website rentals.
