Why Do You Have to Pay Annual Fees?
A website has an annual fee due to the costs associated with its maintenance and operation. This ensures that the website continues to function smoothly and securely. The annual fee typically covers the following
1.Domain Name Fee
A domain name, such as www.example.com, needs to be registered and renewed annually.
Cost: Approximately 300-1,000 THB per year, depending on the type and extension of the domain, such as .com, .org, or .th.
2.Web Hosting Fee
A website requires server space to store data such as images, text, and databases.
3.Website Maintenance
To update software, security systems, and improve the performance of the website.
Cost: May include:
- CMS updates (e.g., WordPress)
- Bug fixes
- Annual website health checks or maintenance audits
4.Security Certificate (SSL Certificate)
SSL encrypts data to protect against data theft and is essential for online transactions
Cost: Available in both free (e.g., Let's Encrypt) and paid versions (ranging from 300-3,000 THB per year)
