Another option / version are "hidden" costs in pratical usage.

I've taken a look at your site: I would classify you among the premium
providers. :-)

I would agree that one has to be cautious with respect to lower-cost
providers: it helps to inquire about them and to look for
recommendations. There have been many lower-cost providers that have
deadpooled within a couple of years of their launch.

This said, there are a number of reliable, lower-cost providers out
there if one wants to save some money.
