Is Hostinger Cheating Customers? Full Explanation

For this Hostinger review, I've bought every plan they have to offer and explored every hidden secret they try to hide from you.

While in this review I take a look at the performance, pricing, support and ease of use Hostinger is offering, you can do your own research by using the websites I have created publicly.

Hostinger is recommended a lot and they're a cheap provider. So it should be a no-brainer right? Well in this Hostinger review, I dove deep and tested out everything they have to offer. Even take a look at why users tend to leave negative reviews and the main issues you might have if you decide to create a website using Hostinger.

Time Stamps:

00:00 - What happened with Hostinger?
00:30 - Why is it cheap?
01:30 - Hostinger performance is weird...
03:50 - Are Cloud hosting plans any better?
04:50 - Is Hostinger FAST?
05:44 - Why are Hostinger users upset?
06:30 - Hostinger offers EVERYTHING
08:00 - Questionable sales tactics
10:38 - Is Hostinger Worth it?

The biggest issue is the speed that they offer. Hostinger plans user Litespeed servers and all of the shared plans are equally fast ( or equally slow, depending on how you look at it).

Buying more expensive plans won't make your site faster unless you completely switch tech and go from shared plans to Cloud plans or VPS.

Even the fastest Hostinger plan can't compare to providers like A2Hosting which offer SIGNIFICANTLY better loading speed. At the price of convenience.

And as my Hostinger review shows, that's the name of the game with Hostinger — convenience.

You don't pay a lot, but you get a lot of features. Overall I still feel like Hostinger is at the top of my recommendation list when compared to other mainstream solutions just because of how easy it is to use and the performance is acceptable like 7.5/10.

Hello! First, Thank you for your informative video!
I was looking at hosting on Hostinger and I was wondering about the renewal process. I’m not sure if my company will work out so I don’t know if I want to pay for the additional years at the cheaper price. In this video you discuss turning off the auto renewal as well as around 10:57 you show a graphic of the renewal only being $24 or $48 which is a lot cheaper than the renew price on the website so I was wondering how you would go about getting those prices if you only went with the 1 year plan? Is that why you don’t auto renew? Is there a way to just renew at the base price instead of the higher renew price?
Thank you for any answer you can give!

Your videos are very well edited, like the artificial zoom in of the 'Fully loaded time' button, as well as zooming out a website and it appears to be on an animated laptop. Lively, focused, not distracting. It is a pleasure to watch your videos and I am getting more and more informed about the ups and downs of different hosting solutions!

Thanks for this amazing video. I do have a question though, are you able to host client website on your hostinger cloud plan and can you have unlimited client account? Thanks for the video.

Man who is your Video Editor? Your Video Editing is Amazing. I would like to hire him, if possible.

[zarakolakowski]

Thank you for your video, but the business plan states they dont provide priority support. Does this mean I won't have help if my site goes down? I want to open an ecommerce print on demand but am nervous I won't have support.

Hi! 1)Did you use WordPress sites with plugins for testing the 6 hostinger sites and 1 A2 hosting?
2) If we add CDN to VPS hosting, won't it again become slow?

Hey, sorry if im a little late, i kinda need your help at this. Im creating an API endpoint along with site, so i chose Hostinger cause it gives me myPhpAdmin, site with file manager and domain (i bought Cloud one), so i setup PHP files such as login.php, register.php etc. and now i see it has Entry Process which is how many php files can be opened i assume, its limited to 50 and i think this is extremely low for an API endpoint which would be spammed probably to get data. Can i somehow make only this limit UP? I dont need more then 1 GB of RAM all i want is network requests, or is it just better to move to Firebase Realtime Database or something? :(

[csmmvn]

thanks for your video. Does Hostinger have server in Vietnam? What kind of Hard-disk they use? SSD or NVME ? And how about CPU type ?

[innomindsco]
