What Does Free Mean?

Understand what “Free” really means at Maad Dev. No monthly fees, full ownership, and no hidden costs.

What Does “Free” Mean?

Free in the Maad Dev Way

At Maad Dev, “Free” means: You can own and use your website forever without monthly fees.

No subscriptions.
No renewals.
No hidden costs.

What You Get for Free

  • Full website source code
  • Your own GitHub repository (free tier)
  • Cloudflare Pages hosting (free tier)
  • Real-time content editing
  • SEO & performance optimized setup

What Is Not Free

  • One-time website launch & setup service
  • Custom work beyond templates
  • Your own domain registration (e.g. .com), paid directly to a domain registrar, a few dollars per year — not a Maad Dev or Cloudflare cost

Simple summary:
Free forever. Pay only once at launch.

What "Free" Actually Covers (Important — Please Read)

Maad Dev's "free" runs within the free-tier limits of GitHub and Cloudflare — the two global providers that power your website's infrastructure. These limits aren't set by Maad Dev, so here's exactly what you get.

GitHub (Free)

  • ✅ Unlimited private repositories
  • ✅ Unlimited collaborators, at no extra cost
  • More than enough for one business website

Cloudflare Pages (Free)

  • ✅ Unlimited bandwidth and visitors — no extra cost no matter how much traffic you get
  • ✅ Connect your own custom domain for free
  • 500 builds per month (1 build = 1 time you save an edit to your website), more than enough for typical use

The figures above reflect GitHub's and Cloudflare's current free-tier plans, which either company may change independently of Maad Dev. Check the latest at GitHub Pricing and Cloudflare Plans.

When You Might Need to Upgrade

Most businesses never come close to these free limits. But if your business grows large enough (for example, your team saves edits hundreds of times a day), you can upgrade your own GitHub or Cloudflare plan directly — that's entirely your decision and has nothing to do with Maad Dev's fees.

Why We Can Offer This

Because we use:

  • Static sites
  • Serverless infrastructure
  • Zero-cost hosting at scale

Long-term cost = 0
So you shouldn’t pay monthly.
