WEBSITE AGREEMENT

WEB SERVICES DESCRIPTION

Web Services. Web Services by Dreams allows you to showcase your business and services online with a high-performance, professional-looking website created and managed by experts. Compared to traditional web development services, this is the most cost-effective way to establish an online presence for your business. Instead of paying a large upfront cost for a fully functional and professional website, Dreams offers a similar service for a small one-time setup fee and a small monthly fee to keep the site running as long as you need it. This solution allows you to quickly establish an online presence for your business at an affordable price, with a guaranteed professional design and the latest coding techniques.

Web Assistant Pro. Web Assistant Pro is a bonus service that provides assistance with updating text content, adding photos, and URLs, adding testimonials, replacement of banners or images, link troubleshooting, contact form validation, and adding content to your website. Additionally, you can request a fresh Home page design upgrade once a year to update the look of your website and maximize your online branding. This will ensure that your site stays modern and functions properly every year. You can make this request after your first year of service. Web Assistant Pro (Business) is typically priced at $199 per month, but it is being included as part of your contract at no additional cost as long as you are up to date with your payments.

Web Hosting and SSL. Dreams will provide fast, secure & robust web hosting and ssl as part of your agreement at no additional cost, saving you the typical $350 per year. This service is typically priced separately, but it is being provided free of charge as part of your contract.
This contract for Web Services includes: website, domain (optional), web assistant pro and web hosting services.

Use of Web Services. The Client acknowledges that he/she has been granted exclusive permission to use the Web Services only for the duration of this Website Agreement. The Client understands that the Web Services are the sole property of Dreams and cannot be used on another server, modified, or sold by the Client during the term of this agreement and after its termination. If the Client wishes to continue using the Web Services after the commitment period, will be required to continue paying the monthly fee. The commitment period specified in this web development contract is designed to ensure that both parties acknowledge and agree that the development of the website represents a significant investment of time, effort, and resources. The commitment period is intended to cover a portion of the website’s total value, and to protect the interests of both parties by mitigating the opportunity cost associated with the development process. By entering into this agreement, both parties acknowledge and agree to bear this investment upfront, in order to ensure the successful completion of the project and the realization of its full potential value. Upon the completion of the commitment period, the Client may choose to continue paying the monthly fee in order to continue using the Web Services or terminate their use of the Web Services without incurring a termination fee, however, the Web Services will be disconnected.
