Due to a one sided contract change from SitePro, we will no longer be able to offer the SitePro website builder on InfinityFree. Most people will not be affected by this, as only a small percentage of all InfinityFree users have access to the SitePro website builder.
If you still have SitePro websites right now, you will have received this email. Please read it and take action immediately.
Dear webmaster,
We are sending you this message because, according to our systems, you are currently using SitePro to manage one or more websites hosted with us.
We need to let you know that SitePro will be removed from InfinityFree on July 25, and you must take action immediately to keep your website running after that date.
What is happening with SitePro?
In last April, we announced that we would remove SitePro from InfinityFree. Following your feedback, we decided to keep SitePro available for existing users for a little while longer, with the intention of reassessing the decision at a later time (likely by the end of the year).
Unfortunately, SitePro announced a new pricing system earlier this month. This new system will become active for all hosting providers on July 25. Existing contracts will not be grandfathered. Under this new pricing structure it is impossible for us to offer SitePro with free hosting anymore.
What will happen to my website on July 25?
On July 25, SitePro access will be disabled for everyone. After that date, you will no longer be able to access the website builder and make changes to your websites.
It’s unclear at this time what will happen with websites which have been published already. Maybe these websites will keep working, but it’s possible SitePro will block them. Because of that, it’s very important that you take action before July 25 to keep your website online.
What should I do with my SitePro websites?
This is a very good time to migrate your website to a platform which will be supported by InfinityFree. Here are some recommendations:
- Kopage is a another free drag-and-drop website builder with a large selection of templates and widgets. You can find it in your control panel
- WordPress is a very popular blog and CMS system with a huge selection of themes and plugins available for it. WordPress can be far more powerful than SitePro while still being fairly easy to use, especially if you add a drag-and-drop editing plugin like Visual Composer to it.
- Desktop Website Builders are software which you can install on your own computer, like MobiRise, to build websites and upload them to your free hosting accounts.
You are of course free to migrate your website to any website platform you want. Softaculous offers hundreds of different softwares for various purposes, and you are free to bring your own software as well.
What should I do if I need to keep using SitePro after July 25?
After July 25, SitePro will no longer be available through InfinityFree. After that, you could migrate to another hosting provider which still offers SitePro.
You can also migrate your website to SitePro directly, using their For Website Owners program. SitePro has already offered to help you migrate your website from InfinityFree to their service. You can find more details on SitePro’s website.
Final words
We’re very sorry to have to notify you on such a short notice about this. We know that a week is a very short time to migrate a website, and we’re not proud of having to give you so little time. SitePro only notified us of the changes earlier this month. We tried to make a deal which would let us keep SitePro available, but that did not succeed. So we’re very sorry of having you go through this trouble.
Thank you for using our services,
