Hi Folks.

I'm busy evaluating Actnic for a client and I noticed that if I buy it via 4 sure hosting I get it for £299 including free hosting, yet if I go through the actnic site its £379...

Is there a difference between the 2 products?

I'm trying to work out how mucit will cost for a years hosting and for the product itself so I can complete a proposal for the client.

Great forums btw, how did we ever manage without forums???

it is the same product.

Actinic sell at RRP.

Actinic also sells to resellers at a discounted price, resellers can then choose what price to sell at

Jo's right - box shifter pricing is why it can be bundled with a FREE hosting account at a discount rate - I don't think many businesses attempt such a thing - I know we won't, although we have bundles - discounting one item and making the other free is a SERIOUSLY budget thing to do... I'd be wary - as we've been doing this a while - so have many others - those long-lived in the industry generally aren't the discount box-shifters.

The actinic is a constant in both your scenarios - a free hosting account is a free hosting account - what comes in a cheap package is often a cheap imitation of the good stuff... having said that, there are lots of expensive rip-offs too...

I recommend you find an Actinic partner who has been doing it for a long time - the longer the better!

In the end, it's your money - your choice...
