alias vs Carrd
Carrd makes simple one page sites, cheap, billed every year. alias is the page for the handles you really own, the looks built in, paid for once.
alias Plus is €4.99, once, and it never renews: your page, your links, verified handles and stats are free. Carrd's cheapest paid plan, Pro Lite, is $9 a year ($9 a year), every year: $27 after three. Free on Carrd: sites with the Made with Carrd branding on them.

What does alias have that Carrd doesn't list?
Backgrounds that react to the cursor, handles verified as yours, each with a rarity tier, your live Discord status on your page and your songs with lyrics that light up word by word. None of those are on Carrd's pricing page.
