IONOS-alternatief?
Geen 14x renewal-val.
IONOS (the rebranded 1&1) is famous for €1/mo deals that quietly become €14/mo on renewal. One mailbox per plan, auto-renew on domains, aggressive upsells. Pulshost: €0,89/mo flat, unlimited mailboxes, Dutch support.

What changes when you leave IONOS
No 14x renewal trap
IONOS' €1 promo becomes €14 in year 2 — a 14x jump. Pulshost is €0,89 in year 1 and year 5. Same price, same plan.
Unlimited mailboxes, not one
IONOS gives you a single mailbox per hosting plan. Pulshost gives you unlimited mailboxes on your domain, free.
No surprise domain renewals
IONOS is famous for auto-renewing domains without a clear warning. Pulshost emails you 30 days before any renewal. You decide.
