  Q1. I have gone through a number of Web Hosting companies and Domain registrars. I saw others are charging lesser and some even too less for the same domain name (while trying to register new ones). For example, Other are charging from INR400-INR1050, but WordPress is charging for the same domains. WHY?

  You are giving some discount on the plans (plus free domain for the first year which many others also do) but some other ways you are charging the more and in fact most on domains from the second year.

  This is not going to help us.

  Q2. How WordPress charges if I integrate more than one domains (as parked domains) for the same website for same web hosting plan?

  Thanks in advance for helping me.

  If you’re comparing us to shared hosting provider, the big difference is that we handle management of the site. We keep it safe, up-to-date, and fully functional.

  When you host a site yourself, using the software from WordPress.org, you’re responsible for its upkeep and maintenance.
