IPVanish currently has a promotion offering its VPN at $53.88 USD ($72.02 CAD) a year while Surfshark has its VPN on sale for $65.88 CAD per year. Keep in mind that these prices are for the first year only.

NordVPN is the only of these three services to offer a dedicated IP option and business plans, and it’s compatible with more devices, so it’s the most robust of all the services.

However, NordVPN limits your number of devices to just six, has fewer server locations than many competitors and is one of the more expensive VPNs, so you have to balance cost with your needs to choose the right service for you.

Bottom Line

If you’re looking for an affordable way to add security to your internet activity at home, IPVanish likely has everything you need. It’s compatible with…

Shared hosting services are ideal for those who want to create and deploy their own website, but don’t anticipate a lot of web traffic and don’t want to spend the extra money for a dedicated service. Therefore, those looking for a shared service should consider affordability as a major factor when researching a service provider.

But affordability isn’t the only factor you need to consider when choosing a shared web host. Here’s what you need to know.

When you stack up all the features and categories of each web host, SiteGround is an attractive option—particularly when it comes to speed, security and customer support. There are also more features available that may attract the more advanced user.

But, with more features comes a greater price tag. New customers are introduced at a promotional rate and will auto-renew at the regular rate. Bluehost’s most basic plan is $12 CAD per month after introductory pricing while SiteGround’s most basic plan is more expensive at $17.99 USD ($24.08 CAD) per month.

The more expensive price tag is justified when you see that SiteGround offers more and outperforms in multiple areas of web hosting.

When to Pick Bluehost

Bluehost offers three categories of hosting: shared, virtual private server (VPS) and dedicated. Each of those categories has several plans ranging in price from $3.95 CAD to $187.54 CAD per month. When you commit to a full year, you get the best price per month compared to paying month-to-month or for a 36-month term.
