hosting
SiteGround
WordPress-specialist hosting with Site Tools performance UX.
Hostinger wins intro TCO and one-panel simplicity for first sites and lean Woo stores. SiteGround wins when you want premium WordPress support perception and slightly higher G2 trust for managed WP — model renewal on both before prepaying 48 months.
