Feature ransoming is the act of withholding crucial functionality from users of website publishing software or platforms, in order to extract more money from the users. Sometimes this is done by tiers called plans. The lowest tier like "free" with have scantly the bare minimum of features while the highest tier, usually "business" holds the best and most useful features at hundreds of dollars per year.
"I don't know which web platform to use when they all engage in feature ransoming and none offer a newbie like me any good features at affordable prices."
