FAQ

Common questions about the SacBiz.Net hosting platform

How much does it cost?

$500 per year — flat rate, billed annually. That covers your website, hosting, SSL certificate, Cloudflare enterprise protection, and a custom QR code for your business cards. No setup fee. No domain registration fee. No hidden charges.

How long does it take to go live?

Same day. Once you complete enrollment and your payment is confirmed, we build and publish your website. In most cases your site is live before the end of the business day. You'll receive a confirmation email with your live URL and QR code.

Can I customize my page?

Yes — within the template. You choose one of six curated color palettes (Black & White, Blue, Red, Green, Yellow, or Orange) and provide all the content: your business name, description, services, hours, service area, address, phone, email, social links, logo, and a profile photo. The page structure is standardized — that's what keeps costs low — but the content and look is entirely yours.

Why a standard template? Custom web design typically costs $2,000–$10,000+. By using a professional template we've built and refined for Sacramento businesses, we can offer the same clean, credible web presence for $500/year.

Are there any hidden fees?

No. $500/year is the full price. What's included:

Your business website at yourbusiness.sacbiz.net
SSL certificate (HTTPS)
Enterprise-grade Cloudflare hosting and DDoS protection
Custom QR code
No domain registration required — your subdomain is included

What's not included: ongoing content changes, custom development, email hosting, SEO services, or marketing. The site is published once from the information you provide at enrollment.

What about SEO?

Your page is built with clean, semantic HTML that search engines can read and index. It includes your business name, address, phone number, services, and hours — the information Google uses for local search. Your site is accessible via HTTPS, loads fast on Cloudflare's global network, and is mobile-friendly.
