Is Hostinger cheating customers? Full explanation
Tutorial Hosting
It took a hostinger 17 years to get to 1 million customers but only 3 years later in July 2023 hostinger had crossed 2 million users this kind of growth created a problem people were getting upset calling out hostinger for being a predatory company awful or just a simple
Plain scam after all how is it possible to provide quality service to 2 million people by charging $2 a month well hostinger’s product owner says is due to the fact that they built their own infrastructure really proud of Hosting here that we’re doing our own infrastructure uh what it means that is
That we are not renting service but we are making our own the CEO of hostinger says it’s because they don’t charge users more than they need to and I well I did some research and this stuff I found out is the most fascinating exciting and terrifying thing that
Answers the question are you getting a good deal by choosing hostinger are you falling victim to a scam by choosing using hosting gear and are my legs fake yes to the last one currently hosting gear is by far the cheapest provider out there it comes in at an average of two
Times cheaper than blueh host or four times cheaper than sideg ground and about a billion times cheaper than Wix Squarespace or other website builders four years of Hosting is only $86 if you click the link in the description and use the code emit reviews for 10% off or
Basically it’s $20 a year with this kind of pricing it’s kind of hard to resist so I picked up all four hostinger plans the single premium business and Cloud all offering increasingly better hardware and more resources for my website I immediately noticed that these single and premium plans are virtually
Identical in terms of the resources you get but it gets even sketchier than this I’ve added my default test website to both plans and ran a g metrics test to verify my suspicion about the plans being virtually the same and yeah the single plan was able to load my website
In 2.1 seconds the premium one was exactly the same 2.1 seconds and even the business plan showed absolutely no increase in website loading speed coming in at the exact same 2.1 second okay so what the hell is going on does this mean that you’re actually getting the same
Exact server no matter which plan you’re buying and to answer this we need to go back to 2016 hostinger shared a post about experimenting with infrastructure automation mentioning that they’re moving away from manual deployments and in 2017 they were boasting about automating 80% of their work and freeing
Up the time of their Engineers over the next couple of years their Engineers were slowly implementing hardware and software updates and in 2019 their servers started to use use light speed technology making them six times faster than the regular Apache servers that were used before and still are used by
Companies like Blu host HostGator or God dead and this brings us to now yes all the plant seem to use the same server technology equally fast light speeed servers better shared plans don’t seem to make your website faster you can achieve maximum speed even with the cheapest shared hosting plan however the
More expensive plans will make sure that your website stays fast as you add more content and users think of it as a lift it can take an unlimited number of people up and down at the same speed reliably but more expensive lifts have bigger capacity so they can carry more
People at the same time and these lines don’t get out of control if the demand is high interestingly enough though I noticed that even the cheapest Cloud hosting plan loads almost twice as fast 1.2 seconds that’s because it’s not just AIG bigger version of the same thing it utilizes a completely different
Technology than shared hosting or in our case it’s simply a newer version lift I imagine it’s the same story with the rest of cloud hosting plants all three options offer equally good speed but are tailored to keep that speed at higher capacities so I don’t need to test this
Because I already bought like four plants we don’t need to more right okay fine we do objective reviews here so I bought these stupid professional and Enterprise plans as well just to test this one Theory spending another $700 so you better use my links in the description when making
Your purchases and yeah same site same testing methods Cloud professional came in at around 1.1 second and the Enterprise one was 1 second all in all very close together but is this even a good result well just as a point of reference I can give you A2 hosting and
Their $3 virtual private server it loaded the exact same site in just 0.7 seconds around 30% faster than even the most expensive hosting a plan however there’s a teeny tiny small difference I mean it’s barely noticeable the A2 hosting plan uh kind of looks like this yeah no control panel
No email no domain name no support no backups just a server with an operating system installed that’s it you connect using SSH and you configure using the command prompt and here’s a realtime loading speed test for both providers the cheapest A2 hosting and the most expensive hostinger and in my opinion
That’s what’s generating a lot of frustration for really techsavvy people that choose hostinger it’s the Apple versus Android debate all over again Android gives you more raw resources and it’s cheaper but apple is easier to use and it looks better but Android is customizable but I don’t need to
Customize my phone because it works good right out of the box or in other words how can a $3 VPS have a loading time of 0.7 seconds and the $30 Cloud hosting plan is slower for some it might seem like an outright scam but the same way
How can 50 coffee beans for one cup of coffee cost 2 cents while Starbucks charges you $10 even though the end product is the same the way you get to it is not if you’re going to buy hostinger here’s what you have to understand you’re not just paying for
Website space and website speed you’re paying for an easy to ouse control panel to manage your website a website name professional email addresses email box 247 support a website builder tool automatic daily backups of your site an SSL certificate sever optimizations updates and a CDN or more precisely
Absolutely everything you need to create a website and have it work just fine even if you have zero technical knowledge like I could give this stuff to my mom and she would be able to create a goodlook site and it’s going to be fast because all you need to do is
Click this button here then that button here follow the instructions and your site just works in minutes and if you want it even easier you can also access their website builder tool that’s included with all of the plans it’s pretty much a drag and drop tool that
Comes with tons of preum templates and makes creating a website just as easy as drag and dropping different elements into place but if I’d give her this and say yeah you’ll want to mount an image of Ubuntu then use PTY and connect via SSH then find a free control panel
There’s like five different ones and you need to find and compare them because not all of them are compatible with your operating system oh also make sure to connect to Cloud FLIR to get a CDN and nssl certificate to encrypt your website she would be basically give up at Step
Zero because there’s no way she’s doing any of that even though yeah it’s $3 but this can’t be the only reason people call out hostinger for being a scam Shady or a fraud right there’s got to be more and yeah there is to put it kindly let’s call this segment questionable
Sales tactics see this countdown timer yeah completely fake it just resets every time it goes to zero the prices you see on the home page only apply if you buy for a long period of time up front once your initial plan expires you’ll have to renew for double the
Price if you use the link in the description you can see a single plan for $1.99 but if you visit the homepage outright there are only three plans for selection because the single plan is only listed under this very specific section and the single and premium plans are virtually identical the only
Difference being you do get a free domain with the Premium plan but if you buy the single plan plus a domain name separately it’s still cheaper than buying the Premium plan once you buy a service it’s default set to Auto renew you’ll need to navigate through several
Menus to disable and when you try to do it you’ll get a scary error page and can’t do anything without providing a reason why you don’t want Auto renewal activated so all of this might seem extremely unethical but as someone who has been in the web hosting industry for
Over 10 years I’ve seen how this got out of control you see what happens is web hosting providers A and B offer 10 GB of bandwidth then web hosting provider a notices that 99.99% of users only use 5 GB and never come close to the advertise 10 GB so
They just change it to unlimited bandwidth instead well now when users make a choice between a or b they see that one is offering unlimited bandwidth while the other one is is offering 10 GB even though it’s the same but unlimited sounds more so they choose a after
Seeing this B quickly changes their tag to unlimited as well and this is how these things get out of control and spread like one small eye builds up a huge pyramid of basically ethical scams most of these practices are sadly the norm with every provider not just a
Hostinger but since people rarely get the opportunity to try out five 10 or 20 providers they only speak about their experience with the one and that one is usually the cheapest one so understandably they feel cheated but can you get a better deal for a complete package to get your website online and
Running fast well providers like Blu host offer two times slower loading times providers like sideg ground tend to be an Overkill that cost too much for a simple site and most other cheap solutions are complic ated or Miss critical features so sadly no in my opinion hostinger is right at The Sweet
Spot it’s just fast enough so there’s no issues with speed it’s cheap enough to be accessible to anyone I mean $2 a month and it does genuinely have some powerful plans for you to grow into if needed even if they’re on the more expensive side at that point you get
Everything you need in one place and I highly recommend you check that amount if you feel like it’s not for you there’s a money back guarantee that you can use to get a complete refund however if you do plan to use hosting a for your website check out this guide where I

For this Hostinger review, I purchased every plan they offer and explored every hidden secret they try to hide from you. 🔥 Hostinger 10% discount ➜ https://emit.reviews/go/hostinger-discount?rev23 While I take a look at Hostinger's performance, pricing, support and ease of use in this review, you can do your own research through the use of the websites I have created is public. Would you like to do your own research? Take a look at https://uptime.emitreviews.com. Hostinger is highly recommended and is a cheap provider. So it should be a piece of cake, right? Well, in this Hostinger review, I took a deep dive and tested everything they have to offer. Even take a look at why users tend to leave negative reviews and what major problems might arise if you decide to create a website with Hostinger. Timestamp: 00:00 – What happened to Hostinger? 00:30 – Why is it cheap? 01:30 – Hostinger's performance is strange… 03:50 – Are cloud hosting plans 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 problem is the speed they offer. Hostinger plans user Litespeed servers and all shared plans are equally fast (or equally slow, depending on how you look at it). Buying more expensive plans won't make your website any faster unless you switch technology completely and move from shared plans to cloud plans or VPS. Even the fastest Hostinger plan cannot compare to providers like A2Hosting, which offer significantly better loading speeds. At the price of convenience. And as my Hostinger review shows, that's the key to Hostinger: convenience. You don't pay much, but you get a lot of features. Overall, I still feel that Hostinger is at the top of my recommendation list compared to other mainstream solutions just because it is easy to use and the performance is acceptable at 7.5/10. #hostingerreview – DISCLOSURE – I am a member but am not sponsored.
