Hostinger review: who it's for, what it really costs
Budget managed WordPress hosting.
Our verdict: A good fit for beginners and small sites on a tight budget. Skip it if you hate long prepay commitments or need premium, high-touch support.
Pricing
| Entry price | $2.49/mo on a 48-month prepay (Premium); renews at $10.99/mo |
|---|---|
| Renewal / ongoing | Premium renews at $10.99/mo; Business ($3.49) at $16.99/mo; Cloud Startup ($7.99) at $25.99/mo |
Strengths
- Lowest entry price on our list.
- 30-day money-back guarantee advertised.
- Plans scale to cloud tiers with more dedicated resources.
Drawbacks
- The headline price requires paying 48 months up front ($119.52 for Premium at time of checking).
- Renewal prices are roughly 4x the intro price.
- Black-Friday-style promotions change often, so the price you see may differ.
