DreamHost

A long-running independent host that also sells domains, with a plainly published price table in three currencies. Registration promos are common and the renewal is usually well above them — the gap is printed right next to the offer, which is more than most manage.

Where it wins

  • Price table published openly in USD, EUR and GBP
  • Free WHOIS privacy
  • Established host with real support

Where it costs you

  • Renewals sit above the discounters
  • First-year promos widen the step-up
  • Domains are a side business next to hosting

Hover

Hover charges more and hides nothing: no upsells, no teaser pricing, famously clean checkout. You pay a convenience premium for calm.

Where it wins

  • Cleanest checkout in the industry
  • Honest flat pricing

Where it costs you

  • Premium prices at every horizon
  • Few promos

Prices fetched from each shop's own published list — DreamHost's on 1 Nov 2026, Hover's on 1 Nov 2026 — in US dollars before tax; the currency switcher converts them. How prices are read

Do DreamHost and Hover include WHOIS privacy?
DreamHost: free on eligible TLDs. Hover: free on eligible TLDs. Registry rules can make privacy unavailable on a particular extension at either.
How do I move a domain from Hover to DreamHost?
Unlock the domain at Hover, ask it for the transfer (auth) code, and start a transfer at DreamHost with that code. A transfer usually adds a year to the registration and is paid at the new shop's transfer price. A domain registered or transferred in the last 60 days usually cannot move yet.
