About the hosting provider

Bluehost is an independent third-party hosting provider. Hosting is supplied by Bluehost, not by Inland Web Services.

  • You purchase hosting directly from Bluehost
  • You own the hosting account and the domain
  • You provide payment information directly to Bluehost
  • You select and register the domain through your own account
  • You are responsible for renewal fees after the first year
  • Bluehost controls pricing, renewals, uptime, support, features, refunds, and availability
  • Domain availability is not guaranteed
  • Ongoing domain management is not included unless stated in writing
  • We can help guide you through account setup and connect the domain to your finished website
  • Purchasing hosting does not include ongoing Inland Web Services website care

Month-to-month hosting currently starts at approximately $8.99 per month, and that option includes a free domain name for the first year. Promotional pricing as low as approximately $1.99 per month requires a prepaid 36-month term and is not a month-to-month rate. Inland Web Services does not collect your hosting payment. Bluehost controls its prices, promotions, features, taxes, and renewal rates, which may change. Confirm current details during checkout.

Final pricing depends on how competitive your market is, the number of locations and service areas, the size of the website, and how much content and technical work each month requires. Search rankings, traffic, leads, calls, and revenue are not guaranteed.
How much does AI automation cost?
AI Automation starts at $299 for initial setup and starts at $99 per month for ongoing service. Both are starting prices.

Custom website projects start at $499. That starting price covers a small, straightforward project. Larger multi-page builds, e-commerce, membership websites, customer portals, and advanced integrations cost more, and every project is scoped and quoted in writing before any work begins.
Why are there two different hosting starting prices?
Bluehost prices hosting by billing term. Month-to-month currently starts at approximately $8.99 per month with no long-term commitment and includes a free domain name for the first year. The lowest advertised rate, approximately $1.99 per month, requires a prepaid 36-month term. Current pricing, total due at checkout, renewal pricing, included features, and availability are displayed by Bluehost and may change.
Does the $1.99 rate require a prepaid 36-month term?
Yes. The approximately $1.99 per month rate requires a prepaid 36-month term, and the full term may be charged at checkout. It is not a month-to-month price. Review the current total, plan details, and renewal pricing directly with Bluehost before purchasing.
Is the full hosting term charged at checkout?
Bluehost may charge the full promotional term at checkout for multi-year plans. The exact amount due is displayed by Bluehost before the purchase is completed.
What happens when the introductory hosting term ends?
The hosting plan renews according to Bluehost’s then-current renewal pricing and terms unless the customer cancels or changes the plan according to Bluehost’s policies.
Does hosting include a free domain?
Eligible Bluehost hosting plans may include one qualifying domain registration for the first year. Eligibility depends on the selected plan, billing term, domain extension, and current Bluehost offer. Premium domains may not qualify, and the domain renews at the provider’s regular annual rate after the first year.
Who owns the domain?
You do. The domain and hosting account are created in your name using your own contact and billing information. Inland Web Services may help connect the domain to your website, but ownership remains with you.
Do I own my hosting account?
Yes. You create and control the Bluehost account using your own login and billing information. Inland Web Services does not own your hosting account.
Do I have to use Bluehost?
The Free Starter Website is designed around the recommended Bluehost setup, and hosting requirements are confirmed during your consultation. Customers should always review the provider’s current plans and terms before purchasing.
Why does Inland Web Services recommend Bluehost?
Bluehost offers hosting options suitable for many starter websites, and the account can be created and owned directly by the client. Plan features, pricing, renewals, and availability are controlled by Bluehost.
Does Inland Web Services receive a commission?
Inland Web Services may receive a referral commission when hosting is purchased through our Bluehost link. This does not add a separate charge to your purchase. Bluehost supplies the hosting service and controls its plans, pricing, renewals, and policies. See the Affiliate Disclosure.
Does Inland Web Services collect my hosting payment?
No. You pay Bluehost directly using your own billing information. Inland Web Services does not provide, resell, bundle, invoice, or collect payment for hosting, and the hosting account stays in your name.
Is ongoing website maintenance included?
No. Ongoing edits, monitoring, maintenance, technical support, and future updates are separate unless included in a written Website Care Plan, which starts at $49 per month. A care plan does not include hosting or domain registration.
How many pages are included?
The Free Starter Website includes one webpage. Additional pages are a Custom Website Project, which starts at $499 and is quoted in writing after the scope is reviewed.
Can I request revisions?
The starter offer includes one reasonable revision round based on the agreed scope. Additional revisions or major scope changes may require a separate quote.
Can I add pages later?
Yes. Additional pages and features are added as a Custom Website Project, starting at $499 and quoted in writing after the scope is reviewed.
How long does the build take?
Timing depends on project fit, content readiness, client response time, and current availability. A projected timeline will be provided after the project is reviewed.
Is every business eligible?
Applications are reviewed, so acceptance is not guaranteed. The Free Starter Website is an ongoing application-based offer, not a limited-quantity promotion, and it is subject to project fit, scope, content readiness, and acceptance by Inland Web Services.
What happens if I need advanced features?
Advanced forms, integrations, scheduling systems, e-commerce, custom functionality, additional pages, extensive copywriting, and automation fall under our optional paid services or a Custom Website Project. Each one publishes a starting price and is quoted in writing based on the actual scope.
Are SEO results guaranteed?
No. Basic on-page SEO foundations may be included, but search rankings, traffic, leads, calls, revenue, and other results cannot be guaranteed.

Project scope, revisions, care-plan coverage, and cancellation terms are set out in your written agreement. See the Privacy Policy and Affiliate Disclosure, or contact us with a question before you apply.
