Your site. Your host. Your data. Your choice.
Self-hosting means the website runs on compatible hosting you select instead of living inside a platform that controls every exit. Freehold CMS gives you one system for the tools you install while leaving the domain, hosting decision, content and business rules in your hands.
Take the parts that matter with you
Your independently created articles, pages, product information and customer records remain part of the site you operate. Keep a real backup and you can move the Freehold CMS installation when the host no longer fits.
Know what remains separate
The Freehold CMS software is licensed. Hosting, domains, payment accounts, email delivery and other providers keep their own terms and charges. We state that plainly so a lower software cost is not confused with a promise that every outside service is free.
Practical control means
- Choosing compatible hosting.
- Selecting only the modules the site uses.
- Keeping current file and database backups.
- Controlling the theme, content and business rules.
- Being able to hire qualified help.
- Having a documented way to move the site.
