what's up andy here and today i'm going to review hostinger for you guys which is a
popular web hosting service now first let's talk about web hosting so whenever you build a website
it has to live somewhere right now i know the internet sometimes can seem like a kind of a
ether or everything just magically exists but in reality everything has to exist and live somewhere
so all websites are built on hosting platforms these platforms provide the infrastructure for the
website to live like the the physical servers that maintain and and store all the information and
structure of your website basically it provides a place for your website to live and a good web
hosting service will help your site run well which will in turn improve a site's performance
and seo so what about hostinger well for a bit of a background hostinger was founded
in lithuania in 2004 and since then it became a massive platform with more than
29 million users 178 countries and it offers some great features and lightning fast speed for
for some of the best prices on the market which is awesome so let's break it down a bit and go
over it uh and look at their overall capabilities and then i'll talk about their different plans and
how i think it stacks up against the competition okay all right so first what does hostinger offer
exactly well they will host your site and help your site run fast and i mean hostinger offers
incredibly fast load times which is one of the important features of hosting a site and hostinger
is constantly ranked as one of the fastest web hosts out there with an average load speed of 143
milliseconds which is i mean it's insane plus they have six data centers across the world
so they have great coverage for sites no matter where their target audience is and hostdigger
also provides their own cash manager which can make your site run even faster now in addition
to hosting your site hostinger also offers some really great features for example they offer a
free domain and normally your domain name is a separate fee so having that wrapped up in your
plan for free is fantastic plus with hostinger when you have just one account their premium plan
offers unlimited websites so you can build as many sites as you want you'll also get unlimited
bandwidth as well as unlimited emails which is normally an additional cost but all that's
wrapped up together and you'll also get free ssl which provides encryption connection to your site
for users and makes your site look legitimate for browsers which is important so hostinger has all
the basics to help you build a successful website and beyond the basics hostinger has a bunch of
other pretty cool features for example another thing that i like about hostinger is that they
have a 99.9 uptime guarantee now this basically means that sites using hostinger will almost
never experience any downtime which is really important for for sales and google rankings and
hostinger also offers git support which honestly can be a bit complicated to explain but basically
it makes problem solving a lot easier if you were to hire developers to create your site
plus hostinger is optimized for wordpress which is one of the best and most popular site builders on
the internet and on top of that i also really like that hostinger's custom dashboard it's it's clean
super intuitive and easy to use it's it's kind of soothing actually so from a customer service
standpoint hostinger is honestly one of the best options out there their live support had
almost no wait time when i tried it out and the staff were not only knowledgeable and patient
they're also pretty fun which is which is kind of weird and and awesome at the same
time right because i hate it when customer service feels like i'm talking to a robot
and and this was the exact opposite plus their support team is trained on how to answer every
single question without having to involve upper tier support which is another frustration that
you keep getting hand off to other people so they have incredibly fast problem solving and you won't
have to waste your time escalating a ticket up the food chain so you can solve your problem then
and there and move on to work on things you actually want to do now let's talk about price and
in a nutshell hostinger is really really affordable i mean hostinger has almost all
of the same features as a premium web host but at a fraction of the price the premium hosting plan
only costs 259 a month and their entry level single plan is only 139 a month and for for
a comparison you might expect to pay a premium web hosting provider as much as 6.99 for a for a
similar performance so i have to say that hosting or provides incredible value especially for folks
that are that are just starting out now because i'm a nice guy to give you guys even more value
i've included a coupon code in the description which you can use to save some money those were
all the things that i like about hostinger but what about some of the hang-ups
well honestly there's no free daily backup this is this is pretty standard in some of its competitors
so it just felt weird that it wasn't free it does come with their business shared hosting
plan though and you can add it on to your plan for less than a dollar a month but uh it's still an
additional cost plus if you want to keep things low-cost they do have weekly backups for free
uh for all of their accounts but the lack of a free daily backup is
is really the only con for me okay so let's say that you want to sign up for a hostinger
okay i want to sign up for hostinger what did their plans look like well they they have a bunch
of plans available and different tiers within those plans they have shared hosting which is
when you share a server with other websites this is perfect for most personal websites or
for businesses just starting out because it's most economic option but as your website gains
traction or higher volume traffic you can scale up and start at vps hosting which provides your
site with a virtual private server this means faster loading times for larger businesses
though you also have to do some work on the back end to make sure that your server stays updated
so if you're looking for the enhanced capabilities of vps without the maintenance aspect hostinger
also offers the options for cloud hosting which is kind of the best of shared and vps hosting
combined it uh it provides that that daily backup i was talking about along with the ssl a dedicated
ip and 24 7 dedicated support and all of these things will serve to make your site faster and
more secure as well as easy to maintain so overall it's a great option for high traffic sites
so taking all of this into account is hostinger the right web host for you well
i think it's one of the best options out there their user interface is easy to use their server
response time uh gets a gold star and uh and they're especially great for beginners thanks
to their fantastic support team and they do this all while keeping their prices low which is great
so whether you're starting a blog or running a small business hostinger would be a really
excellent choice for you and just a reminder that if you decide to give
hostinger a try i've included a coupon code in the description to help you save even more money but
