HEROweb Pricing Overview
Website Monthly Costs
All websites are assigned a base monthly cost based on the size of the website.
The bigger a website is, the more work it is to maintain, expand, support, and troubleshoot. We have found that the number of products is a consistent and simple way to determine the resource and support needs of a site.
