More people may be enticed to avail of Google Fiber in Kansas City as soon as the Internet giant officially announces the new plans. This will totally be a new offer from when it was first launched in town where potential subscribers are required to pay the construction fee only. No need to pay for the monthly access to the Internet because it’s already free. A lot of people took the offer and faster Internet connection is still being provided in its first official market.

The pay-for-installation-free-Internet deal may soon change as Google is set to offer new plans: a free one for underserved neighborhoods and Fiber 100 with a $50 monthly fee. The latter is the faster option compared to the one-time payment for the Fiber Internet. We’re still not sure about the pricing and the the plans but someone from Google already confirmed these developments.

We’re looking at these price change either as nothing but a regular move to expand the offer or as a way to get more customers because there aren’t many people signing up for Google Fiber. As you now, price changes usually indicate poor sales or another product or service is about to be revealed.

This can also just be related to the Fiber Phone service being launched after being in a beta testing program. The Google Fiber team has been exploring cities in Florida and Oklahoma, as well as, for possible expansion in Louisville, Kentucky and San Diego and Irvine, California. We know more cities will be added to the list but probably with better pricing and additional features.

Not all markets have the free Fiber after the $300 installment fee and this option may be removed in the near future. That’s good thing for those who’ve been eyeing the Fiber service but not so much with those areas enjoying the free Internet access.

We still have no idea how many subscribers are there spread all over the United States and in each city. We just know people want a much faster connection. Google promises 100MBPS download and upload speeds. That information alone is enough to make people jump into the bandwagon.
