Unser Urteil

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.

Unsere Wahl
Kinsta
Choose Kinsta if you prioritise the higher overall score in our matrix (8.9 vs 8.4) and faster median TTFB in our probes (238 ms vs 445 ms). Some of our best WordPress page-speed scores, no unusual plugins needed. On the trade-off side, $35+ starting price, too high for budget discussions.
