There's no free plan after the 7-day trial, and it does nothing beyond redirects. - **Value for money: A.** Regular is $2.90 every 30 days, under $4.79, which is 60% of where this category's cheaper quarter starts. Pro+ is $4.90, or $49.90 a year, about $4.16 a month. - **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan, but a 7-day free trial.
