The intro price and the renewal price
Hostinger's plans are paid up front, and the low monthly figures are what you get by dividing a 48-month payment by 48. Premium is $143.52 for four years, which works out at $2.99 a month, and then renews at $10.99 a month. Unlimited is $191.52 for four years, then $16.99 a month. Cloud Startup is $383.52, then $25.99 a month.
The four-year prepayment is cheap, and there is a 30-day money-back guarantee. Just make the decision knowing the renewal price, because that is what you will pay from year five, and it is the number to compare with other builders.
