IMPORTANT: Just like Google gives away a free gmail account, we reserve the right to cancel this free hosting service at any point. However, if we do decide to discontinue this free service we will provide you with a copy of your website to move to any other hosting company at no additional charge to you. You will have to pay the new hosting company for hosting though.
Our Purpose: Our purpose is to provide a fast, easy platform to create a website plus give customers and opportunity to test drive the basic editor prior to a purchase commitment. However, we also know there are those who would look to abuse this system using it to promote information contrary to our terms of service. For those who might think to try this: We’re watching you. This is NOT an automated service run by an artificial intelligence system. We will receive notification of your membership and we regularly review content to be sure the content, images and codes do not violate the terms of service.
Terms of Service in a Nutshell: Fast Free Websites is a family friendly website provider. For this reason, we will immediately shut off, without notification or explanation, ANY website we feel is being used in a manner other than those outlined in our terms of service. This includes, but is not limited to: hate speech, slander, images of a pornographic nature or excessive foul language. You want a website to have a profanity laden tirade on politicians: GoDaddy has a website waiting for ya. Additionally, because we offer a Free Trial, Demos showing what you will get, Examples of real sites we have done and verified Testimonials of our satisfied clients; we do not offer refunds.
You are agreeing to the fact that you also understand that this website is PRE-FILLED with service based content and images. Editing this content is my responsibility however, I understand content services and images can be provided at an additional charge.
You also understand this agreement requires a Modern Web Studios hosting/ support agreement at $19.95 per month and the end of the trial and is not eligible to be transferred to another hosting provider.
Ownership: You own any content or images that you upload and type, we own the content (images, graphics and text), the website editor, plugins and all of its magic that makes this such a great editor. As our licensed are for our server and use, this makes it possible for you to enjoy a high end website editing experience without the high price tag. However, if you need a website constructed with the mindset of moving it in the future, please let us know as the site will need to be specifically constructed with the proper licenses for your use on another server. Naturally additional charges will apply.
How can you offer all this for free or at such a low price compared to other professional web builders?
Quite simply we have streamlined the process so as to offer pre-crafted websites for our customers. Additionally, the plugins and editing platform utilizes shared license agreements that allow us to use the same programs on multiple sites; as long as they are hosting with us. This dramatically cuts down on the cost it takes to construct a website.
