Entry shared-hosting plans.

GreenGeeks details come from its current Shared Hosting page and current support comparison. DotMoose is not affiliated with or endorsed by GreenGeeks. The reviewed GreenGeeks source displays dollar prices without labeling that dollar currency in the extracted plan text, so verify the cart currency before purchase.

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.

GREENGEEKS

Lite

GreenGeeks currently displays $2.95/month for Lite, prepaid for 12 months, and says it renews at $13.95/month.

1 website · 25 GB web space · unmetered traffic · first-year domain · free SSL. GreenGeeks' current support comparison also lists 50 email accounts and unlimited MySQL databases for Lite.

GreenGeeks differentiates its service partly through its environmental/renewable-energy positioning. Treat that as a separate buying criterion from hosting location, term and resource limits.

Decision points

Compare term, renewal and included resources.

Similar headline numbers, different prepaid terms

DotMoose's current Starter launch is C$2.94/month effective for 36 months. GreenGeeks displays $2.95/month for Lite on a 12-month prepayment; the reviewed source does not establish the dollar currency. Compare total cash due, renewal and included resources rather than treating the one-cent headline difference as like-for-like.

Renewal is materially higher than the introductory rate

GreenGeeks explicitly publishes a $13.95/month renewal for the observed Lite promotion. If you intend to keep the account beyond year one, include the renewal period in the comparison.

Lite publishes a larger storage and email allowance

GreenGeeks Lite publishes 25 GB and its support table lists 50 email accounts. DotMoose Starter publishes 10 GB and five email accounts. DotMoose's differentiators instead include CAD billing and Canadian-hosted shared infrastructure.

WordPress uses the same GreenGeeks Lite price structure

GreenGeeks' current WordPress page presents Lite at the same observed introductory and renewal prices. DotMoose has a separate Managed WordPress product starting at C$7.99/month, with WordPress pre-installation, core security updates and daily infrastructure backups.
