GreenGeeks renewal price
GreenGeeks' lowest advertised price is $2.95 a month, for Lite on a 12-month term paid up front ($35.40). It then renews at $13.95 a month, 4.7× as much. Keeping one site for 3 years costs $370.20 at the least (Lite, 12 months). For one site it is joint 5th cheapest of the 18 hosts we price over 1 year, the 12th cheapest over 2 years and the 11th cheapest over 3 to 5 years.
GreenGeeks discounts only its 12-month term; its other terms are sold at its standard price, which is also what they renew at. Its WordPress hosting page sells the same plans at the same prices.
