Entry figures are each host's lowest advertised monthly price for its flagship stack, exactly as printed; for most hosts that is an intro price that requires a prepaid term, so the term and the renewal price sit beside it wherever the page prints them. Taxes, setup fees and add-ons are not in the table.
