Dark Patterns
Hostinger has been criticized for employing "dark patterns," which are deceptive design techniques in websites and apps that can lead users into making unintended decisions due to a lack of complete information.
Downtime Issues
Hostingler users have reported unexpected downtime issues, with up to two hours of downtime per month, equivalent to one full day of downtime per year. This can negatively impact website reliability and user experience.
Email Account Limitations
Hostinger shared hosting plans typically provide only one email account, which may not be sufficient for businesses or individuals with multiple email needs.
Fake Reviews
There have been allegations of fake or manipulated reviews associated with Hostinger, which can mislead potential customers looking for genuine feedback and experiences.
Fake/Hidden Costs
Hostinger has faced criticism for hidden or unexpected costs, such as charges for essential features like SSL certificates, backups, and customer support. These additional charges can catch customers off guard.
Subpar Support
Hostinger's customer support has received mixed reviews, with some users reporting that it often falls short or even bordering on non-existent. This can leave customers frustrated and without adequate assistance.
Inflated Renewal Costs
Similar to some other hosting providers, Hostinger is known for offering attractive introductory pricing but increasing renewal costs significantly. This practice can lead to budget concerns for customers.
Poor Performance
Hostinger has been criticized for offering underwhelming performance, with users experiencing slow website loading times and inconsistent server performance.
Data Sharing
Some Hostinger customers have reported that their information was shared with other parties, potentially leading to unsolicited calls from scammers or marketers.
Buggy “hPanel” Control Panel
Hostinger users have reported limited resources on their hosting plans, and there have been complaints about the performance and functionality of the control panel. These limitations can hinder the smooth operation of websites.

Brands
Established in Kaunas, Lithuania in 2004 as Hosting Media, Hostinger serves as the parent company to 000webhost, Hosting24, Zyro, and Niagahoster, boasting a workforce of over 1,000 professionals spanning across 54 countries.
Throughout its history, Hostinger has witnessed significant expansion, evolving into one of the industry’s largest hosting providers. However, it faced a major setback in 2019 when a substantial data breach resulted in the compromise of approximately 13 million customer records.
In April 2021, a German private equity firm by the name of ConHostinger acquired a significant stake in Hostinger, aiming to further propel its growth trajectory.
Contrastingly, Hostingly operates with a distinct philosophy. Our commitment lies in prioritiSing customer satisfaction and delivering exceptional service without resorting to underhanded sales tactics or manipulating reviews for profit-driven motives.
