Staging
Combine filters โA copy of the site that nobody visits, for finding out what a change does before it is the change everybody sees. For a good many providers this is exactly what the next tier up is for, which makes it a pricing fact as much as a technical one. Recorded as included only where it comes with the plan rather than with the upgrade.
31 providers give somewhere to try a deploy before it is the site, listed alphabetically. Across 23 countries, commonest entry price $5 to $15 a month. 89 records do not record this field, and cannot appear here either way.
