cPanel rises price for 5th year in a row

[C.Grigg]

The years of a cheap $20/month cpanel license is in the past, and with the 5th year in a row of price increases, this will continue to hurt the smaller web host businesses out there.

Ever since cPanel ownership changed hands, things are not very pleasant for small hosting companies. I wonder why no one forked a FOSS panel and built a reliable free option yet.

By paying $20 per month, how many cpanel accounts can you sell along with your hosting plans? Even though cpanel prices are increasing, my hosting company has not increased my hosting fees, I have been paying the same amount for the last 3 years. maybe this time they will ioncrease the fees.

Not exactly sure which way you're asking. If you are referring to USHost247's plans at approximately $20/month spent, then you would be able to get the Medium plan which could hold up to 50 accounts. From a business standpoint, if a customer were to order the medium plan and then actually get 50 accounts under it, we wouldn't make any profit on that client due to the cPanel per cpanel account cost being $0.40 beginning in January.
