A NEW CHAPTER

A fresh look. A clearer comparison.

We’ve redesigned HostingCompass to make comparing hosting plans clearer and easier.

Welcome to the redesigned HostingCompass. We’ve rebuilt the browsing and comparison experience to make it easier to explore hosting, domains and the providers behind them.

01

Find the right starting point

Explore hosting by product type, location, application or payment method.

02

Compare the details that matter

Bring plans together to review pricing, specifications and billing terms side by side.

03

Look beyond the first price

Compare domain registration, renewal and transfer offers in one place.

Still improving, with your help.

We’ll continue refining the experience and expanding the catalog. Prices and availability can change; check the provider’s current terms before purchasing. If you spot a missing detail or something that doesn’t work, let us know.

Sources and price details

Period totals use recorded quotes first; estimates are not locked prices. Contract calculations require complete billing, renewal and setup terms. Tax and extra resources follow the quoted scope.

Confirm current prices, availability and billing terms with the provider before purchasing.

Can I scale Cloudways Flexible back down after a traffic spike?

For supported DigitalOcean configurations, a CPU/RAM-only upgrade can return to the original size, but not below it. If the upgrade also increases storage, reducing the server later requires cloning. The return path depends on the provider and the scaling option you use.
