When you look up the price of WordPress hosting, you will find offers starting at one or two dollars a month. But the price in the ad is not always what you will actually pay. This article explains how much WordPress hosting costs, what determines the price, and the renewal trap many people fall into.
Shared WordPress hosting typically costs between $2 and $15 per month, depending on the number of websites, storage and resources. Managed WordPress hosting for larger sites, or cloud servers, usually starts at around $5 and can reach tens of dollars per month.
Many hosting companies offer a low promotional price for the first term only, and the price goes up on renewal, sometimes to two or three times the original. Before you buy, always look for the renewal price on the pricing page, and calculate the total cost over 3 years, not just the first month.
At Hyyat Host, the renewal price is the same as the signup price, so there are no surprises after your first term:
| Plan | Websites | Storage | RAM | Backups | Monthly price* | Renewal price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WordPress Single | 1 | 10GB | 1GB | Weekly | $2.86 | $2.86 |
| WordPress Basic | 3 | 20GB | 2GB | Weekly | $4.01 | $4.01 |
| WordPress Business | 100 | 50GB | 3GB | Daily, last 14 kept | $5.74 | $5.74 |
| WordPress Pro | 100 | 100GB | 4GB | Daily, last 14 kept | $13.79 | $13.79 |
* Prices for a 3-year term; 1-year and 2-year plans are also available. All plans run on cPanel with LiteSpeed servers and NVMe storage, with free SSL, and a free domain for 1 year on the Pro plan. See all WordPress hosting plans.
The low price at many global hosts requires paying 4 years upfront, then renewal costs 3 to 6 times more. Example with the WordPress Business plan: you pay us $550.91 over 8 years, versus about $973.44 at a global host with a $3.29 intro price and $16.99/month renewal (its published October 2026 prices). So they are cheaper for the first 4 years, and after that you pay us roughly a third of their price. See it for every plan.
