Honest questions:
1. I'm interested in hosting a wedding website for a year. Will the cheapest plan work fine?
2. For pricing- if I choose 6months, does that mean I only have it for 6 months? Or does it mean I prepay for 6 months at a time and have to cancel it when I am finished. It doesn't seem too clear (to me at least).
Basically, I want to host the site for 13-14 months. I was just wondering how I would go about doing that (since there only seem to be options for 1/6 month then 1year+.

For pricing the first 6 months is 75% off. After that I believe you have to resubscribe at full price. In that case you might want to get the 45% off a 1 year plan instead.

Thanks Skinny- I'll put in an order this weekend.
Last question: are those first 2 add-ons necessary? The site is essentially just for information and a db in the back end to keep track of RSVPs.

Was the previous deal better for longer-term purchases?

It's rarely over 45% off either way, but this is a great deal for short term for sure

No ecommerce on my planned site, but there will be a small db with emails and names. The add-ons are likely unnecessary? Cost really isn't an issue, but I'd rather not waste $20 if I don't need it.

I'd like to know as well. In my case, site will only have business address/directions and possibly email db for a newsletter.

Not sure what addons you guys are specifically referring to. Let me check
If you mean the security and backup, then no

$15x.xx for 3 years isnt bad. Seeing as the cost for print media is in the $500-$600 range for a short period of time.

45% off the 1/2/3 year terms. I'm pretty sure they will have more promos later on, but:
75% off - Hatchling @ 6 months is going to cost me $50ish.
45% off - Hatchling @ 36 months is going to cost me $50ish/year ($150ish/3year)
Makes sense to just go for the 36 months right? Plus less hassle of having to renew later on (im forgetful).

I would think so. You're getting the same "door-crasher 75%" deal over the 3 years.
