Nuestro veredicto

Nuestra elección
DreamHost
Choose DreamHost if you prioritise the lower advertised entry price ($2.59/mo) and the higher overall score in our matrix (9.2 vs 8.6). 97-day refund, rare and reassuring after a bad previous host. On the trade-off side, no classic phone support on many plans. Chat and callbacks only.

Hover
Choose Hover if you prioritise Hover's plan limits and "Top Pick" positioning for your stack. Domain and email forwarding without a large hosting bundle. On the trade-off side, not for heavy WooCommerce hosting.

Should I pick DreamHost or Hover?+
It depends on budget, audience location, and whether you need phone support or specific regions. Our overall scores are 9.2 vs 8.6; cross-check the table with your must-haves, then confirm renewals on the host's checkout.
Do you run live tests on both providers?+
Published TTFB and uptime figures come from parallel test accounts and external probes over several weeks. Storage and site limits reflect published grids checked in April 2026.
