Lowest On Price
4 December, 2023
It never has been an outright ambition of ours to provide the cheapest website hosting services. Instead, as we don’t run a Customer Contact Centre full of agents to service customer issues, we work very hard not to create problems. We put Reliable and High Performing Hosting above Gimmicky Pricing. That being said, this Working Smart philosophy has enabled us to provide extremely competitive prices – especially when compared to many of the more well known Hosting Services Providers.
Having made the early decision that our time was better spent developing websites than answering technical support questions we decided to take ownership of the technical aspects of website configuration. By giving our clients less to do, we figured this would lead to us needing to support them less. As a result, our hosting prices can be up to 55% cheaper than the lowest priced comparable offerings you may find available elsewhere.
Elsewhere in The Wild West of Website Hosting
We first put this post up after losing a customer in 2023 who moved away to a Hosting plan offering a promotional rate of £1.99 per month for the first year. Even with VAT added £16.80 a year appeared to offer a great deal to them.
Unfortunately the free domain offered wasn’t actually free as transferring existing domains didn’t qualify as free domains. Transferring the domain added £14.40 to the price. The hosting plan also didn’t include an SSL certificate which was priced separately at £72. So by now even on the promotional rate offered for the first year, the plan was more expensive than what the client was already paying.
This new plan’s price is set to double next year when their promotional rate ends. We will be waiting for their call!
Please make such considerations very carefully and feel free to ask us any questions. We will always welcome past customers back onto our hosting. However we would need to charge for rebuilding their hosting service, reconnecting their domain name and reinstalling the website. Hopefully though this is a charge that nobody will never have to pay.
