WP hosting – Last straw now with SiteGround

Last straw now with SiteGround. Their plans on their page say its an offer of 5.99 per month. I’ve then charged a client that amount for 3 years, but when I have gone to purchase its charging me 8.99 per month. Nothing on their hosting plans pages say that the introductory rate is for 1 year only. Furious.

I need to get a webhosting that I can transfer about 15 sites across, with emails quickly without disruption to the clients. One that isn’t trying to milk every last penny out of me would be preferable.

 

Answers:

All hosting is like that – they always only show the introductory rates (key word: “starting at”) and usually don’t mention the regular real prices (sometimes it shows it crossed off – pay attention to that because that’s what you’ll be paying after renewing).

I found out the hard way, so now I always contact customer support to ask the real/renewal rates. Sometimes that’s the only way to find out. They all do this; it’s frustrating before you know what to look out for.
