Hostinger review
What it does
Hostinger is a web-hosting provider whose plans bundle an AI website builder (Horizons) for generating sites and simple web apps from prompts, alongside shared and cloud hosting, a one-year free domain, and free SSL.
Pricing
Prices below are the 48-month introductory rate with the renewal rate shown, checked 2026-07-30 in USD. Premium is $2.99 per month, renewing at $10.99 (3 websites, 20 GB SSD, 5 AI website-building credits). Unlimited is $3.79 per month, renewing at $16.99 (unlimited websites, 50 GB NVMe, 15 AI credits). Cloud Startup is $7.99 per month, renewing at $25.99 (100 GB NVMe, 4 CPU cores, 4 GB RAM).
Limits that bite
The advertised prices require the 48-month term and renew roughly three to four times higher — Premium jumps from $2.99 to $10.99. The money-back guarantee is 30 days, and new domain registrations are refundable only within 96 hours. AI website-building credits are limited, at 5 on Premium and 15 on higher plans.
How it compares
Wix uses a closed drag-and-drop editor without cPanel. SiteGround prices higher but is known for support. Bluehost is an official WordPress-recommended host.
Good fit / poor fit
A good fit for new sites and small businesses wanting cheap multi-year hosting with an AI builder included. A poor fit for buyers unwilling to prepay four years or surprised by higher renewal pricing.
