We'll compare on the 3-year cost, so an intro offer can't flatter a deal.

  4. Move your domain, if it's registered there

Frequently asked questions

How much does DreamHost hosting cost after the intro price?

On DreamHost's Web Hosting Launch plan, the published intro price was £2.89/mo and the renewal price was £10.99/mo, as published on 2026-09-25. [1] Prices change often, so check the host's page before you renew.

Where do I find my EPP code at DreamHost?

Unlock the domain on the Manage Domains page, then go to Transfer Domains and choose Reveal Auth Code under transferring away from DreamHost. [2]

What about .uk and .co.uk domains?

.uk domains don't use an EPP code. You move them by changing the domain's IPS tag to your new registrar's tag, usually from your current registrar's control panel. [4] See .uk domains.

Can I leave DreamHost before my plan renews?

Yes, you can move at any time. Your current host may not refund a term you've already paid for, so many people move shortly before their renewal date. Check your host's cancellation terms first.

Will my website go down while I switch?

No. We copy your site to your new host while your current one keeps running, and only switch your domain over once you've approved the new version.

Is the move really free?

Yes. When you switch to a host we recommend and buy it through our link, we cover the Serverlinx migration fee, worth up to £100. The host confirms your purchase to us automatically, so there's nothing to claim. Your quote shows exactly what's covered before you book.
