Nosso veredito

HostGator
Choose HostGator if you prioritise HostGator's plan limits and "Most Popular" positioning for your stack. Familiar brand for buyers who know it from ads. On the trade-off side, slower loading than LiteSpeed rivals with default caching.

IONOS
Choose IONOS if you prioritise the lower advertised entry price ($1.00/mo) and the higher overall score in our matrix (8.8 vs 8.4). Low year-one totals for domain, SSL, and hosting in one bundle. On the trade-off side, renewal prices jump far above intro rate.
