I am fine with going to Flickr Pro but this is also in the price range of a regular SmugMug account. Does anybody know how to decide between the two?
Also: this is is not the only criteria, but do any of them allow a custom domain?

Long term Flickr Pro user (signed up 2007) and when my Pro sub expires a year from now there's some compelling reasons to dump Flickr and migrate to SmugMug - not least that SM's had literally anything done with it in the last few years, while Flickr's just got clunkier and clunkier (but also that there's a bunch of old, not-good, photos that I don't really care about on there).
The quality of the "community" on both Flickr and 500px makes the de-prioritisation of the same on SmugMug an advantage too - there's way too much spam on Flickr, although even that's dropped off over the last few years.
I wasn't able to get a bare domain (e.g. domainname.tld) to work directly, so i set up a redirect to www.domainname.tld from there and it's been good for me. I don't know if that has changed since I set it up.
Besides custom domain: what are the pros/cons of Flickr vs SmugMug?
That's what I do. Until now Flickr was my storage for all pictures and 500px only for my best.
