The cost of the service is from $200 per month (up to 100 clients on the server)
and from $300 per month (more than 100 clients on the server).
If necessary, it is possible to order services to perform work on a one-time basis: technical works on the server, administrative and other tasks on the site, hosted both on the server and on the hosting / reselling user account, as well as other works that are not included in the base package of services ordered.
In this case, the cost of work will be charged at intervals of 1 hour.:
The cost of 1 hour of work of a technical administrator is $40.
It is also possible to create an individual tariff plan for server administration.
