2022/23 Annual Renewals


September 1 2022, marks the beginning of our 2022/23 billing cycle and much like every other industry, we're getting hit with inflation driven price increases. At the same time, we've been able to mitigate that better than most thanks to locking in a good annual rate for one of our most costly expenses, hosting. We'll see where things land next year but for now, it's helping a great deal by keeping increases to only three percent.

While 1/2 percent more than our annual average, we're very happy to keep it capped at such a comparatively small increase.

We routinely manage to keep any increases far below industry standard rate increases thanks to our economy of scale business model and extensive legacy cost controls. And from what we're seeing from our competitors, all of which are raising prices at larger increases, we continue to reach that goal.

What Once Was Paid, Is Now Free


The effective price increase for Artist and Standard plan users is only three percent when you factor in our decision to turn the three most common paid add-ons into default functionality: Advanced Forms, Advanced Social Share, and the Post Customizer.

If you're a Standard plan user utilizing all three (and that's most of you), it meant you paid $2,142 for your annual license fee + $175 for those add-ons, or a total of $2,317. A three percent increase is only $2,376 and your invoice is that much more straightforward.

2022/23 Rates


Beginning September 1 2022, the annual license fee rates will change as follows (note; we do round to even dollar amounts so as to avoid odd-ball "...and thirty-four cents" type rates):
  • Artist Plan: $85/mo ($1,020/yr)
  • Standard Plan: $198/mo ($2,376/yr)
  • Pro Plan: $441/mo ($5,292/yr)

Now Is The Perfect Time To Review Your Plan


Annual renewals are the ideal time to take a step back and examine your existing account configuration and explore options to improve and enhance. 

To that end, we would love to set aside some time to learn about the challenges we might be able to address and suggest any improvements.
  • Review existing add-ons to see if there's something new that can better serve your needs (and perhaps even help you control costs!). 
  • Get up to speed on all the standard features and functionality that may improve your content management process.
  • Note: if you're in the process of changing any third-party providers, you absolutely need to be in touch with us in order to see if any options you're considering may require some fee based custom programming or development in order to adequately integrate that service with your website. Doing so ahead of time can help you properly budget and save money.
