Pros and cons
easyname
Pros
- The .com renewal costs €2.25, which helps long term budgeting for names you keep
- .com registration costs €0.89, below Krystal Hosting at £11.99
- Web Hosting intro pricing runs €0.99 to €1.99 with Web Hosting renewals at €4.40 to €21.50 for clear cycle comparison
Cons
- Free WHOIS privacy is no, so privacy handling adds friction even with choice across 480
- .com transfer costs €26.90, which makes inbound moves costly if you consolidate names here
- Free plan is no, so evaluation rests on paid plans backed by a refund window of 30 days
Site123
Pros
- No transaction fee, the lowest in the 1 rank of 78 on that measure
- Entry price of $10.80 sits below the €7.89 median for website builders
- A free plan exists, so testing and a small store can start at no cost
Cons
- The paid entry point starts at $10.80, so a free plan cannot carry a full store indefinitely
- Support runs on chat, email and help centre, with no phone line listed for urgent store issues
- Pricing is listed for a free plan only, so the paid tiers are compared at $10.80 rather than per feature
Who each suits
easyname
Who it suits
- Beginners managing domains and hosting together rather than splitting between Krystal Hosting and separate tools
- Small business owners running several sites who prefer checkdomain style EU focus with 480 choice
Who should look elsewhere
- If you want bundled privacy by default, checkdomain may fit better since Free WHOIS privacy is no here
- If you move many .com names often, Krystal Hosting may fit better since transfer here costs €26.90
Site123
Who it suits
- Beginners who have never published a site or set up a store
- Small businesses that want a site, a store and a landing page in one place
- Shop owners who want no per-sale platform cut
Who should look elsewhere
- Shafrik if you want a lower entry point, since it starts at XOF 9,900
- Ko-fi if you are comparing the entry price only, since it starts at $12
- Mitienda Uruguay if you want a locally priced plan, listed at UYU 400

Questions about each
easyname
What does a .com cost at easyname for registration and renewal+
The .com registration costs €0.89 for the opening term and the renewal costs €2.25 each cycle. You should budget around the renewal figure for the years you keep the name, since that rate shapes the extended cost of ownership and renewal planning.
What does it cost to transfer a .com to easyname+
The .com transfer costs €26.90. You should weigh that charge before you move a name here, since it exceeds the opening registration at €0.89 and affects the math of consolidation across a larger portfolio of domains.
Site123
Is there a free plan for building a site or store?+
Yes. A free plan is offered, and the free plan is the listed way to start rather than a timed trial. Paid entry begins at $10.80, so a free plan covers a site or a small store at no cost before you move up.
What does a paid plan cost?+
Paid plans start at $10.80. The e-commerce plan is listed at $10.80, which is the figure to compare if the store matters more than the site. The entry price sits under the €7.89 median for website builders.
