Lease a website — pay monthly
No big investment up front? Lease your website from Forkbyte. A low setup fee for the custom build, then a fixed monthly price that covers everything: hosting, domain, SSL, maintenance, updates and small changes. We build and manage — you pay monthly and stay up to date. Works for a simple site, a webshop and a full web app.
Low setup, fixed monthly
Website
A professional custom website for freelancers and small businesses.
Webshop
More pages or a webshop with products and payments (iDEAL/Stripe).
Web app
A custom web app or portal on subscription — accounts, data, logic.
Market: all-in subscription € 50–€ 99/mo · setup € 250–€ 500. We price below that.
How does leasing a website work?
What does leasing a website cost per month?
With us a leased website starts at € 195 setup + € 39 per month. A webshop is € 395 + € 79/mo and a custom web app € 750 + € 149/mo. Comparable Dutch all-in subscriptions run € 50–€ 99 per month with € 250–€ 500 setup — we deliberately price below that. All prices are fixed: no surprises.
What is included in the monthly price?
Hosting, your domain name, SSL certificate, technical updates, backups, monitoring and support. The Website and Webshop tiers also include small text and image changes. You do not have to worry about anything — we keep it all running and current.
Am I locked into a long contract?
We work with a minimum term of 12 months to cover the setup, then cancel monthly. No fine print that locks you in for years.
Is the website mine?
As long as you have the subscription, the site is fully yours and online under your own domain. Want to take the site over and host it yourself later? That is possible with a one-time buyout — you are never locked in.
Lease or buy — which is smarter?
Buying is cheaper long term if you have the budget up front. Leasing is ideal if you want to start low, protect your cash flow and always have maintenance and updates handled. Not sure? Request a free project scan and we will work out both options for you.
