Ce que « 0 $ comptant » signifie vraiment (et pourquoi ce n'est pas un piège)

It Sounds Like a Subscription — But It Isn't

When people hear "$0 down and $100 a month," they immediately line it up next to Wix, Squarespace, or Shopify. Same monthly number. Totally different product.

A website builder subscription rents you a template on their platform. Our model covers a custom, hand-coded website built specifically for your business — plus hosting, unlimited edits, support, and ongoing maintenance.

What You're Actually Paying For

Your monthly payment covers real work, not just server space:

  • Custom design and development — every line of HTML and CSS is written by hand for your business, not dragged out of a template library.
  • Fast global hosting — your site is deployed on modern infrastructure built for speed.
  • Unlimited edits — need to update your hours, swap a photo, or add a paragraph? Send it over. We handle it.
  • 24/7 support — when something breaks or you have a question, you talk to a real person who built your site.
  • Lifetime updates — as browsers, standards, and best practices change, your site stays current.

That's a lot more than "$100 for hosting."

Why $0 Down Exists

Most small businesses don't have $3,000–$5,000 sitting ready for a lump-sum web design invoice — especially when they're also managing payroll, inventory, rent, and a hundred other costs.

$0 down removes the biggest barrier to getting a professional site online. Instead of writing a big cheque before you've seen a single page, you spread the investment across a 12-month agreement at $100/month.

For a standard 5-page small business site, that's predictable, manageable, and won't wreck your cash flow.

What's Included in a Standard Site

A typical Fennec Fox site includes up to 5 pages — home, about, services, contact, and one additional page of your choice. Every site is:

  • Mobile-first and fully responsive
  • Optimized for Google PageSpeed (we routinely hit 95–100)
  • Built with clean semantic HTML for better SEO
  • Delivered with no WordPress, no page builders, no plugin bloat

Need more pages or custom functionality? We quote that separately based on scope — but the starting point stays accessible.

The 12-Month Agreement

The monthly model works because web design isn't a one-and-done purchase. Websites need hosting, security updates, content changes, and occasional redesigns as your business grows.

A 12-month minimum gives us the runway to build something excellent without demanding a massive upfront payment — and it gives you a partner for the first year instead of an invoice and a handshake.

After the initial term, you can continue month-to-month. Your site stays live, supported, and maintained.

How It Compares

DIY builders ($16–$50/month): Cheaper on paper, but you're doing all the work. Most business owners spend weekends fighting templates instead of running their business — and the results often look DIY.

Lump-sum agencies ($3,000–$15,000+): Beautiful work, but the upfront cost blocks most small businesses. Maintenance and edits often cost extra.

$0 down / $100 month: Professional custom code, no upfront barrier, edits and support included. You focus on your business; we keep your site fast, current, and working.

The Bottom Line

$0 down isn't a trick. It's a deliberate choice to make professional web design accessible to small businesses that need a real site — not a rented template — without the sticker shock of traditional agency pricing.

If you've been putting off a new website because the numbers didn't make sense, this is what the numbers actually look like.
