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

OVHcloud

Europe's infrastructure workhorse. Domain pricing is fair and European TLDs are strong, but the domain UX is clearly a side quest next to the cloud business.

Where it wins

  • Strong European ccTLD pricing
  • Serious infrastructure behind it

Where it costs you

  • Clunky domain management UX
  • Support optimized for cloud, not domains

On the 312 extensions both sell, DreamHost renews cheaper on 180, OVHcloud on 132. Across the 12 most registered of them, a year of renewals adds up to $315.64 at DreamHost and $304.98 at OVHcloud. On the first year alone, DreamHost is cheaper on 101 and OVHcloud on 211: a first-year discount says little about the years after it.
Do DreamHost and OVHcloud include WHOIS privacy?
DreamHost: free on eligible TLDs. OVHcloud: free on eligible TLDs. Registry rules can make privacy unavailable on a particular extension at either.
How do I move a domain from OVHcloud to DreamHost?
Unlock the domain at OVHcloud, 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.
