Why This Score
Hostens offers very low long-term shared hosting prices, with the supplied pricing data starting at $2.00 per month for the S10 plan.
Shared hosting includes cPanel, SSL, backups, Installatron, website builder access, multiple websites, databases, email accounts, and support for popular applications.
Hostens advertises a 99.95% uptime guarantee and uses cloud-based infrastructure and SSD storage. HostAdvice also reported strong test results for response time and page loading.
The combination of cPanel, Installatron, a website builder, and a simple client dashboard makes routine hosting tasks easier for non-technical users.
Hostens offers 24/7 support through live chat, email, tickets, and other online channels, but phone support is not listed as a primary option. HostAdvice also gave support a 7.5 score.
Hostens combines low pricing, useful shared hosting features, simple management tools, and a broad service range, but the lack of specialized WordPress hosting keeps it from scoring higher for WordPress-focused buyers.
What is Hostens?
Hostens is a web hosting provider that offers several types of hosting from one account. Its main services include shared hosting, unmanaged VPS hosting, reseller hosting, domain registration, and a free website builder with its web hosting packages. The company is part of Interneto Vizija, a Lithuanian hosting company founded in 2003. Hostens currently states that it serves more than 120,000 customers and operates 17,500 servers.
For WordPress users, the main entry point is Hostens shared hosting. The shared plans use cPanel and include Installatron, which can install WordPress and other applications with a few clicks. Hostens also provides Let’s Encrypt SSL certificates, scheduled daily or weekly backups, multiple websites, databases, email accounts, and a website builder.
Hostens is designed to keep hosting simple and low cost, but it is not a specialized managed WordPress host. HostAdvice specifically notes that Hostens does not offer WordPress-tailored hosting. This means users who want standard WordPress hosting with cPanel can use the service, while businesses looking for WordPress-specific optimization and management may need to compare it with specialized providers.
The service is a practical fit for small websites, blogs, portfolios, early-stage business sites, and users managing several smaller websites. Hostens itself says shared hosting is suitable for smaller sites and warns that shared hosting can become less suitable as traffic and resource needs rise. Users who need more dedicated resources can move to VPS hosting, although the VPS service is unmanaged and requires stronger technical skills.
