Why is there a one-time price and a monthly price?
The one-time price covers concept, design, technical build, documentation and go-live. The monthly price covers managed business hosting, CDN, SSL, backups, security, Microsoft Exchange, technical maintenance and the Contentoren System.
Are the prices net?
Yes. All listed prices are net prices plus statutory VAT and are aimed at businesses.
Are small text and image changes included?
The monthly management includes technical maintenance, hosting, security, backups and the AI editor at your booked system level. Content agency work is billed by effort at 95 euros net per hour or via a maintenance package.
What contract term applies to hosting and maintenance?
For the standard offer we recommend a minimum term of 12 months so that hosting, maintenance, the Contentoren System, security and management can be planned reliably.
What is the Contentoren System?
The Contentoren System bundles the technical operation of your homepage: hosting, Microsoft Exchange, SSL, domain/DNS, Security Guards, backups, updates, SEO/GEO base, PageSpeed optimization, AI editor and optional integrations like Google Drive, OneDrive or WhatsApp/Telegram Leadreply.
Is Microsoft Exchange included?
Yes. The website packages include Microsoft Exchange as a professional mail server solution with 3, 5 or 10 mailboxes depending on the package. Additional mailboxes, Microsoft 365/Office licenses, archiving or larger mail migrations are billed separately.
Can hosting be booked on its own?
Yes, after a technical review. This makes sense especially when the website should run fast, secure and without unmanaged mass web space. For existing systems we clarify effort, risks and migration needs in advance.
Why does operation cost more than regular web hosting?
Regular shared hosting mainly covers web space, domain, SSL and simple email. Our monthly operation also bundles Microsoft Exchange, technical accountability, security control, backups, updates, system features, a performance base and support. That's why we don't compare ourselves to plain web space, but to managed website operation.
What do social media and ongoing marketing cost at Contentoren?
Professional social media management starts at 790 euros net per month. For SMEs we recommend Social Growth from 1,490 euros net per month. SEO, ads, content and automation can be added modularly or booked as a Growth Bundle.
What does Agentic Search with RAG cost at Contentoren?
The entry point starts with RAG Pilot from 690 euros net per month plus 2,900 euros setup. For production SME systems we recommend RAG Business from 1,790 euros net per month plus 4,900 euros setup, because it includes connectors, evaluation, guardrails and ongoing quality control.
Why is Agentic RAG more than a normal AI chatbot?
A normal chatbot often answers based only on a prompt. Agentic RAG combines planned search steps, hybrid search, verified sources, role permissions, answer boundaries, evaluation and ongoing improvement. That makes it better suited for website search, support, sales and internal knowledge bases.
Is the ad budget included in the ads prices?
No. The listed ads prices cover strategy, setup, campaign management, optimization and reporting. The ad budget for Google, Meta or LinkedIn is paid separately directly to the respective platform.
