Short answer
Shared web hosting starts at $5 a month, business hosting at $13 and higher-resource plans at $24. A domain name is billed separately once a year. The client portal always shows the price, the billing term and the renewal price before you pay.
What you can expect to pay
Hosting is priced per month, usually billed for a year at a time. At Ayuni Host the shared hosting range is $5, $13 and $24 a month, with the middle plan being the one most small businesses choose. A domain name is a separate yearly cost that depends on the extension you pick.
Everything is shown with the renewal price next to it in the client portal, so you know the second-year cost before you pay the first.
What makes hosting cost more
Price differences come down to resources and responsibility — how much room your site has, and how much of the maintenance somebody else does for you.
- Storage and monthly traffic allowance.
- How many websites and mailboxes the plan includes.
- Whether updates, security and backups are managed for you.
- Dedicated resources — VPS and cloud plans cost more than shared space.
Costs people forget to budget for
Hosting is rarely the only line on the bill. None of these are expensive, but it helps to know they exist before you start.
- Domain renewal, once a year.
- Business email, if you want mailboxes on your own domain.
- An SSL certificate beyond the free one, if you need extended validation.
- A premium WordPress theme or plugin, if your site needs one.
How to avoid overpaying
Start on the smallest plan that fits the site you have today, not the site you hope to have in three years. Upgrading later takes minutes and is prorated, so there is no reward for buying early. Pay annually if the cash flow suits you, and check the renewal price rather than only the first-term offer.
Compare plans and prices
Every plan shows its monthly price, its annual price and its renewal price in one place, so you can decide with the full picture.
