Introduction
Enjoy the convenience of being able to switch between Comcast's Business, Commerce and Professional plans whenever you want.
Comcast's web hosting packages offer flexibility and convenience to help you market to and serve your customers online. Whether you choose the Starter (included at no extra charge with your Comcast Business Internet service), Business, Commerce, or Professional plan, you will benefit from using a comprehensive e-commerce solution. And as your business grows you can upgrade or change your plan any time.
Should you ever decide to move to a lower tiered plan, your website content will remain as is until it is edited. For instance, if you switch from 30GB of disk space to 20MB you will not lose any of your content, even if it is over 20MB. However, you will not be able to manage or make changes to your website until you reduce your content to meet the memory requirements of the new data plan.
