| Topic | Hostinger Premium | Bytelegion Business |
|---|---|---|
| Who answers | 24/7 by live chat in your dashboard, WhatsApp or email; there is no phone support. An AI assistant answers first and a human specialist can join the chat. Sources: Hostinger plans · Help: contacting support | Email, WhatsApp or a ticket in the client area, answered by the people who run the servers, in English and Italian, with no chatbot in between. We don't promise 24/7 hours. Premium gets priority support. Sources: Our plans · Terms of service |
| WordPress updates | By default WordPress only updates minor core versions. You can switch on Hostinger's smart auto-updates and choose what they cover for core, themes and plugins; a backup is taken before each automatic update. | On Business we update WordPress core, theme and plugins for you twice a year: a backup first, then the update, then a check that the site still works. Premium does it every month and restores the site if an update breaks it. Sources: Our plans · Hosting FAQ |
| Backups and restore | Free weekly backups on Premium; backups on demand need a higher plan. Daily backups, kept 7 days, are a paid add-on with no published price. You restore backups yourself in the Hostinger panel. Sources: Hostinger plans · Help: daily backups · Help: restoring from backups | Daily automatic backups on every plan, included in the price. Restores are on request, and we do them for you. Sources: Our plans · Terms of service |
| What the plan holds | 3 websites, 20 GB of storage, unlimited bandwidth under a fair usage policy, 400,000 files (inodes) and 2 mailboxes per website.

| Domain and email after year one | The free domain needs a term of 12 months or more and must be registered within 12 months; a .com then renews at $19.99 a year. WHOIS privacy is free. The mailboxes, 1 GB each, are free for the first year, then $0.59 a month. Sources: Free domain terms · Hostinger plans · Domain prices · Help: WHOIS privacy | The .com is included and renewed with the plan every year, not only the first. Your 3 mailboxes are set up on your devices by us. If you cancel, you can transfer the domain or renew it on its own at the normal price. Sources: Our plans · Terms of service |
| Renewal and refunds | Plans renew automatically at the then-current price. Refunds within 30 days of any payment, renewals included, but domain renewals, privacy protection and free domains are not refunded. Sources: Terms of service · Refund policy | Renews automatically at the same price. Full refund of the hosting if you cancel a new plan within 30 days, minus the registration price of an included domain.

Source: Help: migrating a website | Free on every plan and done by us: site, database and mailboxes. We test the copy page by page before touching the domain, switch the DNS in your quietest hours and watch the first 48 hours. Source: Switching hosts |
When Hostinger is the better choice
Hostinger does some things we don't, and its first year costs less. If one of these matters more to you than paying $12.88 a year more from year two, it may be the better pick.
Three sites on one plan
Premium hosts 3 websites, with 20 GB between them.
Help at any hour
Hostinger's chat is open 24/7, with an AI assistant first. We answer by email, WhatsApp and the client area, and we don't promise 24/7 hours.
Tools you run yourself
Restore weekly backups from the panel and choose which WordPress updates run on their own.
A cheaper start
The first year costs $47.88, against our $119. Prepaying 48 months, Premium is $1.99 a month ($95.52 upfront), then $10.99 a month.
