We put web hosting under the microscope.

Through affiliate commissions: if you buy through our links, the host pays us at no extra cost to you. Currently only InterServer is an affiliate partner. It never changes our scores — no host can pay for a better rating, and we publish our rating method.

We score five factors: long-term value (35%), features & limits (25%), support quality (20%), ease of use (10%), and refund terms (10%). We research every plan's fine print — renewal rates, storage caps, backup policies — and re-check prices monthly. Read the full methodology →

The math: its $7/mo price-lock means the lowest 3-year total on this list, with unlimited storage on a single simple plan. If your priority is speed above all, or you need data centers outside the US, one of the other picks may fit better — that's what the comparison is for.

Yes. Enter our exclusive code DEVHOST01 at InterServer checkout and the first month of eligible plans drops to $0.01 — then the locked $7/mo applies. It's InterServer's own offer through our partnership. Always verify the total on the checkout page before you pay.

Monthly. We re-check every host's advertised prices, renewal rates and plan limits each month, and update sooner when a host announces a change. Prices shown here are advertised rates and can change — the final number at checkout is the one that counts.

Then data-center location matters. InterServer's servers are all in the US — fine for a US audience. If most of your visitors are in Europe or Asia, Hostinger, SiteGround and Cloudways run data centers closer to them. Weigh locations against renewal prices in our full comparison →
