DOTMOOSE

Starter Shared Hosting

C$2.94/month effective for the first 36-month term. C$105.84 is due up front before tax with MOOSE294. The introductory price applies to the first term only; renewal uses the then-current three-year Starter rate. Today’s normal three-year total is C$172.51.

The regular month-to-month Starter plan remains C$5.99/month. 1 website · 10 GB storage · 5 email accounts · 2 databases · free SSL.

Eligible launch orders can include one standard, non-premium .com or .ca registration at C$0 for year one while the domain bonus is active. Checkout confirms current availability; normal domain renewal pricing applies after year one.

DotMoose publishes prices and invoices in CAD, hosts the shared workload in Canada, and uses Virtualmin GPL for standard Shared Hosting.

Decision points

The plans expose different kinds of limits.

Published resource allocations

FullHost publishes CPU, RAM and transfer allocations on Elastic Hosting Starter. DotMoose's public Shared Hosting plan focuses on website, storage, mailbox and database limits instead. If CPU or RAM guarantees are a buying requirement, verify the exact service boundary before ordering.

Price and promotion structure

DotMoose is shown with its current prepaid 36-month Starter launch offer, with the regular month-to-month plan still available separately. FullHost currently shows a regular monthly amount plus a first-invoice discount. Compare the ongoing price and the billing term, not only the lowest number on the page.

IP and caching features

FullHost publishes a dedicated IP and Redis object cache on its Starter plan. DotMoose Shared Hosting should be evaluated against the features on its current plan page; do not infer VPS-style dedicated addressing or a particular caching layer from the shared-hosting price alone.

Canadian hosting

Both providers publicly position these hosting products in Canada. If residency is a formal requirement, include DNS, payment, analytics, external email, CDN and other third-party services in the review.

Switching providers

Record files, databases, mailboxes, DNS, domains, cron jobs, redirects, certificates and application requirements. Keep the source service live until the destination has passed the checks that matter to your site.
