Intro price vs renewal: how not to overpay

Compare renewal for 12–24 months — not “from $2.99” — plus backups, panel and traffic. A $3 shared plan often becomes $10–14 in year two; a cheap VPS may throttle CPU under load. Ask support for renewal pricing in writing and whether migration / money-back covers the first 14–30 days. Watch inode caps and “unlimited” fine print. Drop the plans you’re considering — we’ll estimate real yearly cost.
