New Pricing Plans by Ning

In July 2010, the provider of our Overtone Music Network Community software will roll-out three new pricing plans - Ning Mini, Ning Plus and Ning Pro - and begin phasing out their free service. Below you see the list of all three package. To continue the value of this Overtone Music Network and provide a music player on this network we recommend you to purchase for $ 19,95 an own subdomain website address for your profile (included with an own email address). Make your profile page to your second marketing website to promote your music on Overtone Music Network.

What is Ning Mini?
Ning Mini, priced at $2.95/month, is the simplest and fastest way to set up a social network for your classroom, small nonprofit or family group. Ning Mini provides a basic set of features, accommodates networks of up to 150 members, and includes ad-free or run your own ads. For $2.95/month or $19.95/year, Ning Mini is perfect for Network Creators with smaller networks and a limited budget.

What is Ning Pro?

Ning Pro, priced at $49.95/month, is the ideal solution for Creators building a comprehensive social experience who need additional features, integration and support. Ning Pro includes all current Ning features, as well as run your own ads, use your own domain, no Ning promotion links, additional storage and bandwidth and premium support — a 33% discount off of what this package costs under our current pricing model, and a 46% discount if you pay the annual price of $499.95. Ning Pro customers will also have the option in the near future to upgrade to get API access and HD video.

What is Ning Plus?

Ning Plus, priced at $19.95/month, provides the robust set of tools and features you need to build and grow a highly-engaged, branded social network – at an incredible value. Ning Plus includes all current Ning features except for video and music uploads and branded players. This plan also includes run your own ads, use your own domain, and remove Ning promotion links.
