Waar moet je op letten?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cGratis WordPress-website\u201d is een uitdrukking die je overal tegenkomt, maar het loont de moeite om goed te kijken wat 'gratis' nu eigenlijk inhoudt. Sommige aanbiedingen zijn echt gratis, andere zijn alleen in het begin gratis, en weer andere verbergen hun kosten op plekken waar je ze misschien niet verwacht. Deze gids helpt je het verschil te zien, zodat je een optie kunt kiezen zonder onaangename verrassingen.<\/p>\n<h2>Waarom WordPress zelf gratis is<\/h2>\n<p>De WordPress-software is open source, wat betekent dat het gebruik ervan echt niets kost. Ook duizenden thema\u2019s en plug-ins zijn gratis. De software is dus nooit het dure onderdeel. De kosten, als die al ontstaan, komen voort uit alles wat met de software samenhangt: hosting, een domeinnaam, ontwerpwerk en premium-uitbreidingen.<\/p>\n<h2>De veelvoorkomende verborgen kosten<\/h2>\n<p>Als er bij een aanbieding \u201cgratis\u201d staat, controleer dan of een van de volgende punten nog van toepassing is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Hosting:<\/strong> Je website heeft een server nodig om op te draaien, en daar zitten meestal de echte kosten.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Domeinnaam:<\/strong> Een aangepast adres zoals yourbusiness.com is na het eerste jaar zelden gratis, als het al gratis is.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ontwerp en installatie:<\/strong> Een gratis thema moet nog steeds worden geconfigureerd, en een professioneel resultaat kost tijd of geld.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Premium-plug-ins of -thema\u2019s:<\/strong> Geavanceerde functies zijn vaak alleen beschikbaar via betaalde upgrades.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Merkopbouw en advertenties:<\/strong> Bij sommige gratis pakketten worden hun eigen merknamen of advertenties op je website weergegeven.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Echt gratis versus gratis proefversie<\/h2>\n<p>Het is belangrijk om een echt gratis optie te onderscheiden van een tijdelijke aanbieding. Een gratis proefperiode of introductieprijs lijkt gratis, maar gaat later over in een betaald tarief. Een echt gratis onderdeel, zoals een websiteontwerp dat zonder extra kosten is inbegrepen bij een abonnement dat je toch al van plan was aan te schaffen, wordt niet plotseling in rekening gebracht. Controleer altijd wat er na een eventuele introductieperiode gebeurt.<\/p>\n<h2>Vragen die je moet stellen voordat je een verbintenis aangaat<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Is hosting inbegrepen, of zijn daar extra kosten aan verbonden?<\/li>\n<li>Kan ik mijn eigen domeinnaam gebruiken, en wat kost het om deze te verlengen?<\/li>\n<li>Zullen er op mijn site opdringerige merkreferenties of advertenties verschijnen?<\/li>\n<li>Is het ontwerpwerk inbegrepen, of moet ik dat zelf doen?<\/li>\n<li>Verandert de prijs na de introductieperiode?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Hoe Disoh het echt gratis houdt<\/h2>\n<p>Bij Disoh is het ontwerp van de website zelf gratis wanneer je kiest voor het Business WordPress-hostingpakket. Er zijn geen aparte ontwerpkosten, de site is volledig bewerkbaar zodat je niet vastzit aan betaalde aanpassingen, en onze prijzen bevatten geen onverwachte verhogingen.
