Is a Free Website Really Free? Here Is Exactly What MyNinjaSite Costs
Yes, the website MyNinjaSite builds and hosts for you is genuinely free, with no trial, no credit card, and no forced subscription to keep it online. The only things that cost money are optional upgrades you choose, like a custom domain name, professional email at your domain, and premium add-ons. You are never charged for the site itself.
Whenever something is free, the smart question is what is the catch. With most free website builders, there is a real one. With MyNinjaSite, we will be straight with you about what is free and what is not, because the difference matters.
What is genuinely free
The website itself, start to finish, at no cost:
- A completely custom website built from your real business info, no template.
- Fast, secure hosting so your site stays online, free forever.
- A mobile-friendly design and a secure connection.
- The ability to edit your text and photos from a simple dashboard.
There is no trial clock, no credit card required to get your site, and no monthly fee to keep it live. If all you ever want is a professional website, you can have it for free and never pay a cent.
What costs money (and why)
We are generous, not crazy. A few optional upgrades have a real cost, and we charge fairly for them:
- A custom domain like yourbusiness.com. Domains have a genuine annual registration cost, so this is a paid add-on when you want your own web address instead of the free one we provide.
- Professional email at your domain, such as you@yourbusiness.com.
- Premium add-ons like online booking, advanced SEO, and other tools that go beyond the core site.
Every one of these is optional. You only pay if you decide you want it.
The one thing to know about the free site
Your free website carries a small, tasteful MyNinjaSite credit at the bottom. That is how we can afford to give the site away. If you would rather remove it, that is an inexpensive optional upgrade, but it is entirely your call and the site works perfectly with it in place.
How this compares to other free builders
Many free builders bury the catch: ads plastered on your site, a forced upgrade just to publish or connect a domain, or a site that vanishes the moment you stop paying. MyNinjaSite does not do any of that. Your free site has no ads, stays live, and remains yours.
The bottom line
Yes, a free website from MyNinjaSite is really free. You pay only for the extras you choose, like a domain, email, or premium features. The site that wins you customers costs you nothing to build or keep.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the website actually free, or is it a trial?
It is genuinely free, not a trial. There is no countdown and no credit card required to get and keep your site online.
What do I actually have to pay for?
Only optional upgrades you choose: a custom domain, professional email at your domain, and premium add-ons like online booking. The core website is free.
Why does a custom domain cost money?
Domain names carry a real annual registration cost from the registrar, so a custom web address is a paid add-on. You can also use the free address we provide.
Will my site disappear if I never pay for anything?
No. Your free website stays live and hosted for free. You only pay if you add optional extras.
