Memberships or hosting: choosing a format

The portal keeps separate statistics for both formats: memberships and hosting. This guide explains the difference.

How the formats differ

Memberships is a one-off major outlay with long-term value. Hosting is flexibility: less commitment, recurring cost.

To judge the ratio, compare the median figures of both formats — the portal shows them per segment.

Working with the numbers

The two formats can trend apart: one rises while the other stays flat. Check both series before deciding.
