Common questions
How does the domain preference system work? +
When you subscribe, you submit 3–5 domain preferences in order of priority. Our team checks availability and registers and connects the best available option within 48 hours.
Do I need to know how to code? +
Not at all. The Portfolio Builder is entirely no-code. Fill in your content through the dashboard, and 4LABS handles design, hosting, SEO, and going live.
Can I upgrade my plan later? +
Yes. You can upgrade at any time. You'll only pay the prorated difference for the remaining subscription period.
What happens when my subscription ends? +
Your site stays live for a 30-day grace period. If you don't renew, the site is taken offline. Your content is always exportable from the dashboard.
Can I order add-ons before my site is live? +
Yes. Add-ons are queued alongside your initial site setup.
