The SiteGround renewal price is $17.99 a month for StartUp, $29.99 for GrowBig and $44.99 for GoGeek on a 12-month term. That means one invoice of $215.88, $359.88 or $539.88 a year, about six times the first-year price of $2.99, $4.99 and $7.99 a month. A 24-month renewal lowers the rate to $14.99, $24.99 and $39.99 a month. Prices were checked on November 5, 2026 on SiteGround’s US web hosting page and its knowledge base rates article (last updated October 12, 2026). All prices exclude sales tax.

SiteGround renewal prices by term
SiteGround’s rates article lists a regular price for each prepaid period. The longer the term, the lower the monthly rate. These are the prices your plan renews at once the first term ends.
| Plan | 1 month | 12 months | 24 months |
|---|---|---|---|
| StartUp | $24.99/mo | $17.99/mo ($215.88) | $14.99/mo ($359.76) |
| GrowBig | $34.99/mo | $29.99/mo ($359.88) | $24.99/mo ($599.76) |
| GoGeek | $49.99/mo | $44.99/mo ($539.88) | $39.99/mo ($959.76) |
Paying month to month costs $299.88 a year on StartUp, $84.00 more than a 12-month renewal. On GrowBig and GoGeek the monthly term costs $60.00 a year more. A 24-month renewal saves $72.00 on StartUp and $120.00 on GrowBig and GoGeek compared with two 12-month renewals. GoGeek also lists a 3-month term at $49.99 a month, the same as monthly. The rates article lists no 36-month renewal price.
When SiteGround charges the renewal
- It renews automatically. SiteGround’s knowledge base says all shared and cloud hosting plans are set on automatic recurring billing.
- The charge comes early. Plans with a renewal period of 12 months or more renew 15 days before the expiration date. Monthly plans renew 5 days before.
- It repeats your first term. SiteGround’s order terms say services auto-renew at the regular price for the same period you first ordered. A 12-month StartUp signup becomes a $215.88 invoice unless you change it.
- The discount is gone. The order page states that the special initial price applies to the first invoice only.
- Tax comes on top. The rates article says sales tax is added based on your billing details.
The 30-day money-back guarantee covers new shared hosting orders. For renewals, the rates article only says they may be refundable under certain conditions, so turn off auto-renewal before the charge date if you plan to leave. Our guide on what happens when web hosting expires explains what to back up first.
Four-year cost with each renewal choice
This table adds the first year at the intro price to three renewal years. The second column renews once for 24 months and then once for 12 months.
| Plan | Three 12-month renewals | 24-month + 12-month renewal | Saved | Average per month |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| StartUp | $683.52 | $611.52 | $72.00 | $14.24 vs $12.74 |
| GrowBig | $1,139.52 | $1,019.52 | $120.00 | $23.74 vs $21.24 |
| GoGeek | $1,715.52 | $1,595.52 | $120.00 | $35.74 vs $33.24 |
Even with the longer term, a StartUp site averages $12.74 a month over four years, more than four times the $2.99 on the sales page. Our article on why SiteGround is so expensive explains what that price pays for.
How to lower your SiteGround renewal
- Renew for 24 months. In the Client Area, open Services, then Hosting, click Settings on the plan, open the three-dot menu and choose Renew. Pick the length from the drop-down. SiteGround’s knowledge base confirms that a longer period gives a lower average monthly price.
- Downgrade if you run one site. GrowBig renews at $359.88 a year and StartUp at $215.88, so a one-site owner saves $144.00 a year on 12-month terms. Our SiteGround StartUp vs GrowBig comparison shows what you lose.
- Turn off auto-renewal if you are leaving. Go to Services, then Hosting, open the three-dot menu in Plan Details, choose Renewal Settings and switch Autorenewal off. Do this before the 15-day charge date.
Who should pay the renewal price
- Renew if $215.88 a year for one site, or $359.88 a year for several on GrowBig, fits your budget. At three sites GrowBig works out to $119.96 per site per year.
- Look elsewhere if the renewal is the main cost you want to cut. Our SiteGround alternatives list compares four-year costs, and the Hostinger renewal price guide shows the same numbers for a lower-priced host.
Verdict
Budget $215.88 a year for StartUp, $359.88 for GrowBig and $539.88 for GoGeek after year one, plus tax. If you stay, switch to a 24-month renewal before the charge date: it is the only listed way to lower the regular rate on the same plan, and it saves $72.00 to $120.00 every two years.
