Hibu vs. Grippy Code FAQ
How much does Hibu cost?
Hibu does not publish prices on its website; its homepage describes its pricing as custom. Ask for a written quote that states the monthly price, minimum term, any early termination fee and who the domain is registered to. Ours are on the page: from $99 a month (first 6 months billed upfront) or $999 to buy once. See pricing.
Can I switch from Hibu to Grippy Code?
Yes, once your Hibu minimum term allows it. Before cancelling, check who your domain is registered to: Hibu’s terms say a domain it provides is registered to Hibu, so ask about transferring it to you first. Then we point it to your new site at launch. Get a quote.
Do you run ads and listings like Hibu?
No. Our plans focus on the website itself: design, hosting, edits and on-page SEO, with a monthly report on Premium. Ad campaigns and listings management are not part of our website plans, so you pay only for the site. See pricing.
