Nuestro veredicto

IONOS
Choose IONOS if you prioritise the lower advertised entry price ($1.00/mo). Low year-one totals for domain, SSL, and hosting in one bundle. On the trade-off side, renewal prices jump far above intro rate.

Nuestra elección
WP Engine
Choose WP Engine if you prioritise the higher overall score in our matrix (9.0 vs 8.8) and faster median TTFB in our probes (245 ms vs 368 ms). Managed updates, caching, and scaling, so developers focus on features. On the trade-off side, far above shared hosting cost. Hard to justify for low-traffic blogs.
