How we write this
Who wrote this sentence?
  • It is built from a template: the two strongest pluses, the two strongest minuses, then who it suits.
  • Every bullet comes from a single data field; if the field is unknown, the bullet is not written at all.
  • An editor only fixes the language — they cannot add or remove a bullet.

What you will pay

How we calculate
How we compute the real cost
  • The first term total plus the renewal price for the remaining months.
  • Coupon codes are excluded; treating a discount as permanent makes the cost look lower than it is.
  • Every line carries its capture date; if the renewal price is unknown we leave the figure blank rather than guess.

Provider website availability

not part of the score

Our network has been probing the company’s corporate site from 4 points for 18 days; status page: 2 incidents in the last 30 days. No percentage is published — this is not a hosting-quality measurement.

This measures the provider’s own website. It does NOT measure the server your site would run on, and it does not feed the score.

Measurement of this plan starts once we buy it with our own money and put a test page on it; the 30-day window in the methodology refers to that measurement.

Frequently asked

derived from data
What do I pay first for Plus?
The provider bills the annual term upfront: the first payment is $15.92, which works out at $1.33 a month.
What happens when the term ends?
Renewal is $11.94 a month, 9.0 times the first-term price. We took that figure from the provider’s pricing page on 5 Sep 2026.
Why is this plan's data confidence 54/100?
54 out of 100: renewal transparency 25/25, renewal terms 2/25, price position 13/20, spec completeness 10/15, term flexibility 4/15. It measures how complete our record is, not how good the plan is; speed and availability measurements do NOT feed it.

Instead of Plus
