ZeroWeb · why we build first
01 / 06
Why is itfree?
The website is free, always: design, logo, email, changes, a yearly redesign. You pay for two things only: the domain, once you've seen the site and like it, and after two months, a yearly package that keeps it online. Here is the whole thing, plainly.
The honest reason
02 / 06
Why free? Here's the honest answer.
We've been building websites for more than 16 years, as codewebmedia.com. This is our new side project, for shops and local businesses.
Most website makers ask for money first. You pay, you wait, and too often you get a slow, half-done website. We do it the other way round: we build you a top-class website first, and you pay nothing until you've seen it and liked it.
We keep our profit small. Design, logo, email and changes cost you nothing, ever. The yearly package keeps your site running and leaves us a small, fair profit.
What we really want is a relationship that lasts. If your website works for you, you'll stay with us, you'll tell other shop owners, and when you need more, you'll come back to us. That's worth more to us than a big bill today.
That's the whole reason. No catch. Don't like the site? Say no, and you owe nothing.

No advance. No catch.

Where our money comes from
04 / 06
So how do
we earn?
Fair question. Here is every rupee, and where it goes.
The domain02
Your domain name
Only if you like the site. A domain costs money every year; it isn't ours. We buy it at market price and pass on just that cost, no profit on it.

The plan03
This is how we earn
After the two months free, if the site is bringing you something, you pick a yearly package that keeps it online. 1 to 6 years. Every plan includes the domain's first year: what you paid for it comes off your first plan payment. The 6-year plan covers the domain for the first 2 years.

If the site doesn't bring you calls, you won't pick a plan, and we don't earn. That keeps us honest. It's in our interest to make a website that works for you.

You don't like the site.
Tell us. We part as friends. You don't pay anything, and you don't owe us an explanation.

After the domain
You change your mind.
The domain is bought for your website, so its fee can't be refunded once it's bought. Tell us and we stop there. You owe nothing more.

After 2 months free
You don't pick a plan.
The site goes offline. That's all. No bill, no reminders that won't stop.

Q.01Is there a hidden charge?
No. The domain (market price, from about ₹699 a year) and, after 2 months, one yearly package on the rate list are all of it. Your first package payment has the domain you paid taken off. Design, changes and email are never charged. We confirm the domain price before we buy; premium names cost more.
Q.02What do I pay after 2 months?
Two months is enough to see whether the site brings you calls and enquiries. After that, one yearly package keeps it online (hosting), from ₹2,999. The website work itself stays free.
Q.03Does the plan include the domain?
Every plan includes the domain's first year: what you paid for it comes off your first plan payment. The 6-year plan covers the domain for the first 2 years. 1 year ₹2,999 − domain you already paid (.in ₹899) = you pay ₹2,100. After those years, the renewal is paid yearly at market price (e.g. .in about ₹899). We remind you before it's due.
Q.04Why do you buy the domain?
So you don't have to deal with it. We buy it once you like the website and set it up. You pay its market price: .co.in about ₹699 · .in about ₹899 · .com about ₹1,199 · .org about ₹1,299 · .net about ₹1,399 a year. We remind you before each renewal.
Q.05Do I have to sign anything?
No contract. You tell us about your business in the form, and we start. Our terms are short and in plain words.
Q.06Why should I trust you?
You don't have to. That's the point of building first. You see the finished website before you pay anything.
