Figures are in USD, before tax and without special coupons. The deal price is the lowest monthly price for the plan across 1 to 4 year terms; the renewal is the price for the same term after it ends.
How we collect the numbers
-
1
We take every price from the host’s own website or checkout, in USD, before tax and without special coupons.
-
2
The deal price is the lowest monthly price for the plan across 1 to 4 year terms. The renewal price is the monthly price the host lists for the same term after it ends.
-
3
Increase = (renewal price ÷ deal price) − 1. Extra per year = the monthly difference × 12.
-
4
We check prices on the hosts’ sites, and every plan shows its last-checked date. We only list prices checked in the last 30 days. Plans whose host does not publish a renewal price are listed but left out of the summary figures.

Frequently asked questions
Why does hosting cost more at renewal?
The deal price is a discount to win new customers for the first term only. After that the host charges its regular price. So compare the renewal price before you choose, not just the deal price.
How do I pay less over time?
Buy the longest term you can afford at the deal price, because the discounted rate holds for the whole term. Before renewal, compare new offers and move your site if one is cheaper. Check the first payment for each term in the cost calculator.
Can I publish figures from the index?
Yes, under CC BY 4.0 with a link to this page. The link code and the CSV file are in the “Use this data” section.
