People pay ₴100–300 a month for hosting out of habit. Here is what that money actually buys, and when it buys nothing at all.
A static site costs $0 a month. The pages are built in advance, so the server has nothing to compute — it just hands over ready files. WordPress does need hosting, and that is from ₴1,200 a year.
The only thing left to pay for is the domain — about $8 a year, billed to you directly by the registrar with nothing added by us.
Classic hosting is a rented slice of a server standing by around the clock. It holds a database, runs code every time a page opens, and keeps the system patched. A WordPress site genuinely needs all of that: every page is assembled from scratch the moment someone opens it.
If the pages are built in advance, the server has nothing to compute — it just hands over finished files. Content delivery networks do that, and the big ones do it for free: Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, GitHub Pages. The free tiers cover a small business site many times over.
Zero a month is not a promotion or a trial. It is simply a different technology, one with nothing to charge for.
The domain — about $8 a year for .com, a little more for .ua. Email on your own domain — from nothing to a few dollars a month. That is all, and those invoices come to you from the registrar directly, not from us with a margin on top.
If you need user accounts, a catalogue of thousands of items filtered from a database, or payments taken on the site, you need a server, and ₴100–300 a month is a fair price for it. Most service websites simply do not need it and pay anyway.
The test is simple: if nothing on your site changes without you, you are renting an empty room.
| Kind of site | Hosting per year | What else is paid |
|---|---|---|
| Static site (ours) | $0 | Domain ~$8/year |
| WordPress site | from ₴1,200 | Domain + updates or support |
| Shop or client area | ₴1,200 – 3,600 | Domain, updates, sometimes a server |
Hosting depends on what the site is built with. If you need an editing panel, we costed it here.
One caveat: ₴0 applies to hand-coded sites. A WordPress site needs regular hosting with a database — the host bills you directly, with no markup from us.
