Hostinger — provider assessment
Subject: Hostinger
Hostinger publishes KVM plan specifications, promotional and renewal prices for a 2-year term, free weekly backups, 1 Gbps networking and ten advertised data centers. This assessment verifies four plans. IPv4/IPv6 assignment, setup fees and per-region stock are not captured.

Score global retenu
The evidence coverage is insufficient for a single overall score. The dimension results below are evidence assessments, not a universal quality ranking.
Conclusion
An aggressive promotional option with generous RAM, NVMe and included backups, but the renewal price and limited captured locations matter. The overall score is withheld because IP support, regional stock, taxes and performance are not established.
Dimensions
Assessed dimensions have a score and rationale. Not-assessed dimensions remain visibly unknown; they are not assigned a neutral score.
| Dimension | Statut | Score | Justification et preuves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Location fit | assessed | 3 / 5 | The page advertises ten data centers and names Boston and Jakarta; only those two are recorded here. Per-region stock is not confirmed. |
| Network performance | not assessed | Score global retenu | No independent throughput, latency or packet-loss test was run on this provider. |
| Policies and limitations | assessed | 3 / 5 | Free weekly backups, firewall management, DDoS filtering and a 30-day money-back guarantee are stated. IPv4/IPv6 assignment and full SLA terms were not captured. |
| Price transparency | assessed | 4 / 5 | The page shows a promotional monthly price for the initial 2-year term, a higher struck-through price and a stated renewal rate. Tax treatment and setup fees are not captured. |
| Source freshness | assessed | 5 / 5 | The selected official sources were observed on 2026-10-24. |
| Specifications | assessed | 4 / 5 | vCPU, RAM, NVMe and bandwidth are listed for each KVM plan. Virtualization is identified as KVM; CPU generation is described as AMD EPYC. |
| Support and reliability | not assessed | Score global retenu | No support interaction or independent reliability data was collected. |
Points forts

- Free weekly backups are included.
- 1 Gbps networking is stated for every plan.
- The renewal price is disclosed on the pricing page.

Adapté à
- Cost-sensitive projects that can commit for 2 years
- Self-hosted apps that need more RAM per dollar
- Buyers who value included weekly backups
Non adapté à
- Hard IPv4/IPv6 requirements without verification
- Short-term experiments
- Workloads requiring measured performance
Inconnues connues
- IPv4/IPv6 assignment
- Per-region stock
- Setup fee
- Snapshot inclusion
- Tax treatment
- Independent performance and reliability
Limites
- Provider pricing page only; no Hostinger VPS was purchased or benchmarked.
- Four KVM plans and two named locations are covered, not the full Hostinger catalog.
Correction path: use the source links and verification dates to challenge a claim. Do not treat an old snapshot as current.
Alternatives
IONOS VPS M+
IPv4/IPv6 dual stack and unlimited traffic on a 12-month term.
Netcup VPS 1000 G12.5
More vCPU and RAM on a 12-month EUR contract, with snapshot support.
