Costs appear when you try to finish
After using the website I created for free for several years, I am thinking of moving it to another site. However, when I requested cancellation, Fee for remaining contract periodis charged, Data transfer costThe answer is that it is separate. It obviously cost zero to make, but it costs money to finish.
This scene is not visible when the proposal is received. This is because the largest text in the proposal is “Production Cost: 0 Won,” and the rest are included in small letters in the contract.
In a free offer, it is the commitment, not the production cost, that sets the price. The production cost is an amount that is not paid once, and the contract is a line that determines how many times it will be multiplied in the future.
One line from the proposal and four lines from the contract.
When you place two documents side by side, you can immediately see what hasn't been written yet. The four lines below are headings commonly used in contracts, and are not text from a specific company.
| line of contract | What is decided here |
|---|---|
| monthly fee | Amount paid each month |
| contract period | Number of months to determine the total amount |
| automatic extension | What happens if I don't notify you separately? |
| Early termination | How to calculate the remaining period |
Multiply the monthly fee by the contract months.
If you switch places and calculate it, you can see the size. As we already noted in the case study Web builder usage fee of 30,000 won per month becomes 1.08 million won in 3 yearsno see.
| monthly fee | × months | 3 year total |
|---|---|---|
| 30,000 won | 36 | 1.08 million won |
| 90,000 won | 36 | 3.24 million won |
| 150,000 won | 36 | 5.4 million won |
| 300,000 won | 36 | 10.8 million won |
This table is Assumed value with only multiplicationno see. Since this is not a market price survey, please do not quote it as is, but calculate it yourself based on the usage fee and number of months of the contract you have.
What's left after 3 years?
There is something you need to look at before the total amount. When the contract ends What can you bring with you?no see.
| leaving behind | |
|---|---|
| Domain registered in your name | A screen that only rotates within it |
| Original content set aside | Source code and database |
| Handover items written in the contract | Administrator account and settings |
If you can't move it Creating again, not beforeThis happens. So, in our case study, we wrote down a line in the contract that said, “When the contract ends, we will hand over all source code, DB, and account information within 30 days.”
However, please do not misunderstand. The absence of this sentence does not immediately mean that you have no rights. Rights relationships depend on the entire contract and actual transaction details. If it's not written down, it means you'll fight at the end.
We also produce for free
This article is not about turning down free offers. BlueCanvas also operates free website creation as a partner program. No production costs, Only hosting and domain costs are directly managed by the partner.I wrote it down on the information page as a condition.
The problem is not the word “free” itself, but the empty space next to it. For any offer, please read the conditions first before making your decision.
Write three lines next to “Free” today.
- Total contract amount — Monthly fee × contract months. Just multiply it once.
- Early termination conditions — Check to see if it says how to settle the remaining period.
- Scope of handover after termination — See what domain names, sources, and data you can receive.
Once all three lines are filled, you'll see not whether it's free or not, but how much it is. The cancellation statement and contract shown in this video are all reproduction screens and are not documents from a specific company.
