I have my own gite website, designed with great help from this forum.
As I understand little or nothing about the whole process I have stuck with the original recommended hosting company.
I'm coming up for renewal and it seems to me I'm paying a lot for something I barely use - the website just sits there with a few tweaks from time to time and I rarely if ever use their support.
I'm with siteground and have a .com domain in France. I'm paying 275.88€ for a year's hosting to Growbig hosting and one year's domain of 15.99€.
I am wondering how these prices compare with other companies'. Also how complicated / difficult is it to swap hosting companies?
I'd be grateful for thoughts/suggestions. Thanks Sue
Thinking about moving hosting provider
They have a very cheap "introductory offer" which then becomes very expensive after a year. You could of course that with them and create a new account every year and close the old account but it seems a lot of hassle. Even the basic one is very expensive after a year.
I would avoid this type of company and choose a company that has sensible "regular" prices. I use Krystal but there are lots of web hosts out there that don't use this cheap price to entice, then hope you won't switch...
