An independent editorial for the long-term web.

Hostilo exists because most hosting recommendations are written by people who haven’t used the products they recommend. We started Hostilo to do the opposite — to test, monitor, and write about hosting the way a serious editorial publication would cover any other product category.

We are headquartered with a primary focus on the United States market, with growing coverage of European hosting needs. Our readers are creators, freelancers, small businesses, and developers — people for whom hosting is infrastructure, not a hobby.

What we stand for

Three things. Independence: no provider can pay for a higher ranking. Transparency: every affiliate link is disclosed on the page it appears. Rigor: our scores come from measurable factors, not marketing claims.

How we’re funded

Hostilo earns affiliate commissions when readers purchase hosting through our links. This pays for our testing infrastructure and editorial team. It does not influence what we recommend. Read our full affiliate disclosure and review methodology.
