Web hosting withno renewal price increase.
HostPanel's renewal price is the intro price, on every product. No £0.99 teaser that renews at £9.99, no usage-based surprises on app plans, and every price is quoted with VAT included. Web hosting from £4/month - and £4/month is also what you pay at every renewal.

The UK hosting renewal trap
The pattern is well documented: sign up at £0.99 to £2.49 a month, renew at £8 to £10 or more. The intro price is a marketing cost; the renewal price is the business model. Here is what our comparison research found in published UK pricing.
9x
IONOS renewal multiple
Intro deals from £0.99/month have renewed at around £9/month - roughly nine times the price you signed up at.
7x
SiteGround renewal multiple
Heavily discounted first terms have renewed at around seven times the intro rate once the initial period ends.
~3.5x
123 Reg renewal multiple
Intro pricing has renewed at roughly three and a half times the sign-up rate - gentler, but still a jump you only discover at renewal.

The HostPanel pricing pledge
One number per plan. It includes VAT, it includes the basics, and it does not change at renewal.
Renewal Price = Intro Price
The price you sign up at is the price you renew at, on every product and every tier. There is no intro discount to expire because there is no inflated 'normal' price behind it.
VAT-Inclusive Quoting
Every price on this site includes VAT. The number you see is the number on your invoice - not a smaller number that grows 20% at checkout.
No Usage-Based Billing on Apps
App hosting plans are flat monthly prices. No per-request charges, no bandwidth overage, no surprise bill because a post went viral.
Free SSL, Included
SSL certificates are included on every plan - not a £30/year line item that appears after the first term, as they are at several large UK hosts.
DDoS Protection, Included
DDoS protection is part of the platform on every plan, not a paid security add-on bolted onto your renewal invoice.
Free Migration, Included
We move your site over at no cost. Leaving a renewal-trap host should not cost you money on the way out and the way in.
Every product, intro and renewal
The second column is the point. On every HostPanel product, it matches the first.

|---|---|---|
| Web hosting | £4/mo | £4/mo |
| Managed CMS | £6/mo | £6/mo |
| App hosting | £5/mo | £5/mo |
| Game servers | £5/mo (£2.50/GB) | £5/mo (£2.50/GB) |
| Managed databases | £5/mo | £5/mo |
| Reseller hosting | £12/mo | £12/mo |
