“A cheap website is the most expensive mistake you’ll make online.”
— Faeb Web Services
Many businesses start with a low-cost website — but behind that price tag are hidden problems: no support, outdated plugins, missing backups, and slow performance. In this guide, we explain the real costs of choosing a cheap website, why they often fail, and how Faeb’s managed approach protects your digital presence from day one.
🚨 1. Cheap Today, Expensive Tomorrow
At first glance, ₹3,000–₹10,000 for a “complete website” sounds like a good deal.
But these sites often lack:
- Any security (SSL, firewall, malware scans)
- Backups or recovery tools
- SEO structure or mobile optimization
- Real support when things go wrong
“It worked when it launched — but six months later, the site broke, and the developer was gone.”
— A real client story Faeb sees often.
Hidden Cost: Rebuilding the site later, usually from scratch, costs 3x more.
⚠️ 2. No Support = High Risk
Cheap developers or DIY platforms rarely include ongoing support.
- A plugin crashes your homepage? You’re stuck.
- Google flags your site for malware? No one helps.
- You forget to renew your domain? No one notices until it’s too late.
With Faeb’s managed service, you get:
✅ Uptime monitoring
✅ Real-time support
✅ Secure infrastructure
✅ Hands-off peace of mind
🔐 3. Security Is Always an Afterthought
“61% of SMBs hit by cyberattacks in 2023 didn’t recover fully.”
— Ponemon Institute
Cheap websites often:
- Skip SSL (or rely on free ones without auto-renewal)
- Use pirated or outdated plugins/themes
- Have no login protection or firewalls
One weak point = compromised site = lost trust + possible legal issues.
With Faeb:
We include free SSL, managed updates, firewalls, and scheduled malware scans in every plan.
📉 4. Poor Performance Kills SEO and Conversions
Slow websites = lost customers.
“A 1-second delay reduces conversions by 7%.”
— Neil Patel
Cheap websites typically:
- Load in 5–10 seconds
- Score poorly on Google PageSpeed
- Fail Core Web Vitals tests
At Faeb, all sites are:
- Optimized with caching, minification, and CDN
- Mobile-responsive
- Lighthouse-audited and SEO-ready
❌ 5. Bad Code = No Future Upgrades
Many low-cost developers:
- Use bloated templates or page builders
- Leave unused code
- Skip documentation
So when you need changes later:
- New developers can’t understand the site
- You have to start over
Faeb’s Build Standards:
- Clean, modular code
- Documented and version-controlled
- Easy to scale, upgrade, or redesign
📉 6. No Backups = Total Data Loss
“If you don’t have a backup, you don’t have a website.”
— Tech proverb
Cheap sites rarely come with backups. A single crash, hack, or misstep — and your entire digital presence vanishes.
Faeb Includes:
- Daily automated backups
- Secure offsite storage
- 1-click recovery in case of emergencies
🔍 7. Zero SEO = Invisible to Customers
You can have a beautiful site… but no one will find it if:
- It lacks structured data
- It doesn’t pass Core Web Vitals
- Meta tags are missing
- Pages aren’t indexed or linked properly
Faeb-built websites are:
- Structured for AI + search engines
- Connected to Google tools (Search Console, Analytics)
- Keyword-optimized, schema-tagged, and cleanly indexed
