Questions
About these comparisons.
Why publish comparisons rather than sales pages?
Because the questions arrive in that form. Business owners rarely ask what a service is; they ask whether one option is better than another for their situation, and they want the trade-offs rather than a recommendation dressed as advice. Each comparison sets out what the two options actually optimise for, when each is the correct choice, and where the decision genuinely does not matter much.
Are these comparisons impartial?
They are written to be useful rather than neutral in the empty sense. Where the evidence points clearly in one direction we say so and explain why, and where a choice depends on your circumstances we set out the conditions instead of pretending there is one answer. Each page also names the situations in which the option we do not usually recommend is the right one.
How current is this guidance?
Each comparison carries visible published and last-updated dates, and is revised when the underlying facts change — for example when search engines alter how AI answers are generated, or when hosting and content delivery economics shift. Fast-moving subjects such as AI search are reviewed most frequently.
