You own the hosting. We guide the setup.
For clients who prefer to purchase and control their own hosting account while receiving LACASIO guidance during the website launch.
How Guided Hosting Setup works
1. You choose and purchase
You purchase the hosting plan directly from the provider. The hosting account, billing relationship and ownership remain yours.
2. LACASIO guides setup
Within the agreed launch scope, we guide the hosting connection and website setup steps needed for the project.
3. You keep control
Renewals, billing, plan changes and provider terms stay between you and your hosting provider.
Third-party hosting charges are not included in your LACASIO launch package.
Hosting, domain, business email, premium software, plugins, transaction fees and other provider costs are paid separately unless a written scope explicitly says otherwise.
Guided Setup vs. Managed Hosting
Guided Hosting Setup
Best if you want to purchase and manage hosting directly. You control provider billing and renewals; LACASIO guides the relevant launch setup.
Managed Hosting — C$899.99 / 12 months
Managed Hosting is available for eligible projects within its published scope. Guided Setup remains available for customer-owned hosting.
Technical maintenance and requested content changes are different.
Managed Hosting is C$899.99 for 12 months and Care Plan is C$94.99/month. Larger website additions continue to follow the request-first add-on process.
Common questions
Does LACASIO own my hosting account?
No. With Guided Hosting Setup, you purchase and own the account directly.
Who pays the hosting provider?
You do. Provider charges are separate from LACASIO service fees.
Will LACASIO renew the plan for me?
No. Because the account is client-owned, renewal and billing remain your responsibility.
Does Guided Hosting Setup include ongoing website maintenance?
No. Guided Setup covers the agreed launch setup only. Care Plan is a separate optional C$94.99/month service for up to approximately 30 minutes of minor website-update work per month.
Can I switch to Managed Hosting later?
Yes. A later switch to Managed Hosting is subject to compatibility, migration requirements, the current Managed Hosting scope, and the approved written terms at that time.
Use Guided Setup for current projects
Guided Setup keeps the hosting relationship directly in your hands. Managed Hosting and Care Plan are separate optional services available within their published scope.
