VONUC is one of the largest free WordPress resource websites for beginners. One question we are asked quite often is why we provide so much content for free. Many people also wonder how we earn money while keeping our resources available at no cost.
We created this page to answer those questions. You’ll learn how VONUC is funded and why that benefits you as a reader.
Why is WPBeginner Free?
When you’re just starting a website or running a small business, it’s not always possible to spend a lot of money on tools or training. However, having the right resources and knowledge is essential for success.
We launched VONUC with one simple goal: to create easy-to-follow WordPress tutorials that anyone can understand and keep them completely free.
Unlike many websites that simply rewrite content from others, our team has real hands-on experience with WordPress. We have skilled developers, writers, editors, and content creators with years of experience in WordPress, web hosting, eCommerce, SEO, and digital marketing.
For more information, take a look at the VONUC Editorial Process to see how we research, write, review, and keep our content accurate and up to date.
Our mission is to help beginners and small businesses build successful websites and compete with larger companies.
In simple words, we created VONUC to provide the resources we wish we had when we first started.
How Is VONUC Funded?
We have always believed in being open and transparent with our readers. We think honesty is the best way to build trust and create a strong community.
Running a website like VONUC, which helps thousands of readers every month, requires a significant investment. This includes hosting and server costs, along with the time and effort needed to create and maintain high-quality content.
Our team regularly publishes and updates thousands of free WordPress tutorials, as well as a large collection of free video guides.
Keeping all of these resources available for free is not possible without generating revenue. Below are the main ways that help support and fund VONUC.
Our Products
Over the years, we have developed a range of premium WordPress plugins to help website owners improve their sites and grow their businesses.
When you purchase one of our premium WordPress plugins, you directly support VONUC and help us continue creating free WordPress tutorials and resources.
We sincerely appreciate everyone in the VONUC community who uses and supports our plugins. Thank you for being part of our journey.

Referral Fees
We may earn a commission when you purchase a product or service through one of our recommended links.
We only recommend products and services that we have carefully tested, used, or genuinely believe will be helpful to our readers. Our recommendations are based on our own experience and research, and we never accept payment in exchange for positive reviews.
This way of earning money is called affiliate marketing. Many of the world’s biggest companies, including Amazon, eBay, Google, and many others, offer affiliate programs. Website owners can earn a commission when visitors purchase products or services through their referral links.
Affiliate marketing is one of the most common ways websites generate revenue and cover the costs of running and maintaining their content. Many of the websites you visit every day use affiliate marketing to support their business and continue offering free resources.
The difference is that not every website openly explains how it makes money. We believe in being honest and transparent with our readers, so we clearly disclose when we use affiliate links and how they help support our work.
From time to time, you may also see banner advertisements on our website, like the example shown below:
At other times, you may notice a special referral link that is unique to our website, such as:
https://vonuc.com/refer/hostgator/
When you click one of these links, a small tracking cookie is stored in your browser. This cookie lets the company know that you visited through our website. If you later purchase the product or service, the company may pay us a referral commission at no extra cost to you.
The commission amount depends on the product or service. For example, we might earn a small commission of around $1 for a book purchased through an online marketplace, while a premium WordPress theme, plugin, or hosting service may earn us a higher referral fee, such as $10 or more. The exact amount varies from one company to another.
Question #1 – Will it Cost Me More Money?
No, absolutely not. In most cases, using our referral links can actually help you save money.
Because VONUC is a trusted WordPress resource, many companies provide our readers with exclusive discounts and special offers that are not always available to the general public.
For example, the regular price of managed WordPress hosting from WP Engine is $29 per month. However, if you purchase your plan through our referral link, you’ll receive 50% off during your first three months.
If you’re looking for more savings, be sure to visit our Deals section, where we regularly share exclusive discounts and special offers from our partners.
Question #2 – Do You See My Personal Details?
No. We do not receive or have access to your personal information, such as your name, email address, home address, or credit card details.
The only information shared with us is limited and anonymous. We can see that a purchase was made through one of our referral links, along with the date and time of the purchase and the product or service that was purchased. We cannot identify who made the purchase or view any personal or payment information.
How Can You Help Us?
Running a website like VONUC requires a significant investment. From hosting and infrastructure to content creation and maintenance, the costs can be substantial.
We have a dedicated team of professional developers, writers, editors, and content creators who work hard to produce and maintain high-quality WordPress resources.
If you would like to support VONUC, here are a few simple ways you can help:
- Purchase one of our premium WordPress plugins.
- If you’re planning to buy a product or service that we recommend, use a VONUC referral link.
- If you’ve used a product we recommend, consider sharing your experience in the comments to help other readers make informed decisions.
- Help us reach more people by sharing VONUC tutorials with your friends, family, and colleagues on platforms like X (Twitter), Facebook, and LinkedIn.
Your support helps us continue creating free WordPress tutorials, guides, and resources for everyone.
Why Should You Help Us?
Some websites and so-called WordPress experts charge hundreds of dollars for training courses, even though much of the same information is available for free on VONUC.
You’ll also find websites that publish overly positive reviews without properly testing the products or services they recommend, simply to earn affiliate commissions.
At VONUC, we put people first. We care deeply about both our team and our readers, and your best interests always come first.
That’s why all of our WordPress tutorials are available completely free of charge. Our mission is to give beginners and small businesses access to the knowledge and resources they need to build successful websites and compete with larger companies.
If VONUC has helped you along your WordPress journey, we hope you’ll consider supporting us. Your support allows us to continue creating free, high-quality tutorials and work toward our mission of helping more people succeed online.
Thank you for your continued support.
