Hostwinds was founded in 2010, with the goal of changing people's perceptions of the hosting industry by providing high-quality hosting services at a low cost. They take pride in their customer service and have a 99.9999 percent uptime guarantee. Their headquarters are in Washington, Seattle.

They provide shared hosting, reseller and white-labeled hosting, virtual private servers, and dedicated servers, with data centres in Seattle, Dallas, and Amsterdam.

To put all of these claims to the test and see if they are genuine, I decided to create an account and set up a website; we'll see how this goes. We're diving deep into the world of Hostwinds to see if they live up to the expectations.

My Journey with Hostwinds is great so far as I didn't find any downtime for my websites. This may hold true as their promise is kept.

Bear in mind that if you want to request a refund, you must do so within 72 hours of the payment transaction time. Hostwinds will not give refunds in advance, and refunds requested before to the cancellation or outside of the 72-hour time frame are considered invalid and will not be eligible for a return.

Specific Features of Hostwinds

One thing you will notice about Hostwinds is that they have basically two guarantees.

  • 99.9999% UPTIME
  • FRIENDLY SUPPORT

This implies that your website should always be accessible and that the support staff is courteous, at least in my opinion.

In addition, they provide fast, dependable web hosting, cloud hosting, VPS hosting, and dedicated server hosting.

They specialize in the use of cutting-edge software and the latest technologies, have a high level of support, and are available 24/7/365 to guide you through any of their solutions.

It's worth mentioning that they provide free migration, which is handled by their technical team. You can also get a free SSL certificate and an unlimited number of email addresses. The Weebly website builder will also streamline much of your website building process, and all plans include unlimited disc space, which is excellent.

The cPanel includes all of the standard features you'll need to manage your website, so it should be simple.

Performance Speed and Uptime

During my testing, my website remained operational, with an average response time of 750ms. The control panel was simple to use, and as a result, I was able to get the website up and running quickly. This is excellent and trustworthy.

Pricing ranges from $5.34 per month on the cheapest package to $42.74 per month on the most expensive, with plenty of options in between. You can buy Shared web hosting, business web hosting, reseller hosting, fully managed Linux VPS hosting, and fully managed Windows VPS hosting which are readily accessible.

What I Like

  • Free SSL Certificate
  • Unlimited Disk Space
  • Amazing Uptime
  • Free Migration
  • Excellent Customer Service

What I Dislike

  • Limited to only three server locations
  • You have to pay separately for a domain name
  • Mandatory KYC (Know your customer) document scans

Final Verdict

When it comes to price, Hostwinds definitely lives true to its name. You receive a lot for your money, and the support team is fantastic. However, the necessity of scanned private documents was an minor disturbance and downright time-consuming at worst, which I did not appreciate having to deal with. That being said, if you want a secure web host that will assist you with support, this is a good choice.

My experience with the program so far

They are very customer centric, hence it's one of their slogan Customer Centric Web Hosting. My experience with them is when I order virtual private servers to use for my otohits, 9hits and hitleap which have linux auto surf programs and they run like for a whole month and with no downtime.

What I Like

I like their customer support how they take care of you and their downtime, and affordable price.

What I Dislike

Nothing so far.

Final Verdict

From beginners to advance, I think they will be indicatively stay on this web hosting platform.
