Setup Fee
Learn what set-up fees are and just what their purpose within the web hosting world is.
Every time you acquire a brand new website hosting account, your monthly payment is processed, your account is made and as automated as the whole process can be, there are always little things which are done personally. For your virtual or a dedicated server there're even more tasks to be done as these kinds of website hosting often need a manual setup, software installation and configuration, testing the server environment in order to ensure that all things are working fine, and so on. To fund the cost for the time and efforts all these duties take, most companies collect a one-time set-up charge to be paid by their clients on top of the price for the shared hosting. The fee in most cases applies to every new hosting account being purchased and it is hardly ever listed on the company’s website, however it shows up on your checkout page.
