Unser Urteil

Unsere Wahl
Flywheel
Choose Flywheel if you prioritise the higher overall score in our matrix (9.0 vs 8.4) and faster median TTFB in our probes (262 ms vs 445 ms). Client handoff and billing tools built for design agencies. On the trade-off side, no custom scripts or long-running tasks. Not a general VPS.

HostGator
Choose HostGator if you prioritise the lower advertised entry price ($3.75/mo). Familiar brand for buyers who know it from ads. On the trade-off side, slower loading than LiteSpeed rivals with default caching.
