sincity Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Quality web hosting can be an expensive affair – but it doesn’t have to be. And while you can always fall back on free website hosting providers, there’s also a growing number of cheap web hosting providers that deliver honest, reliable performance and great value for money without breaking the bank.All bar one of the web hosting companies listed below will accommodate more than one website. So while cheap web hosting providers are great for starting your business, they might not be powerful and scalable enough to take it to the next level; which is where VPS and dedicated servers come into play.Note that some of the headline eye-catching prices (from free to just a few dollars/pounds per month) are often only for a limited period (usually the first year), and after that they can swiftly balloon, especially when you factor in the cost of the domain names bundled.If you plan to have a successful online business, it is important to think long-term and how the total cost of ownership (the cost of running your website over years) might impact your bottom line. So, without further ado, below is our hand-picked list of the best cheap hosting deals.Check out our list of the best web hosting providers and cheap VPS hosting deals http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/eaV3kfiKqe8HZw8guGnRxS.jpgBelow are the best cheap web hosting providers of 2019http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/JcYJydAVdZ5W5YmTjVPMRW.jpgHostGator Hatchling$31.68 for the first year when purchased for three years. Total cost of purchase is $95.04HostGator is backed by EIG, one of the biggest web hosting companies, and its Hatchling plan is great for getting started. As with most of the offerings highlighted here, you can only run one website on this plan, but you don’t get a free domain name or free SSL.What you do get is unlimited disk space and bandwidth (but note that you won’t be able to use this space for storing files as this is against the terms and conditions), along with a $150 marketing budget (Google and Bing Ads credits). You also get 24/7 support, unlimited backups, subdomains, MySQL databases, email inboxes and FTP accounts. And finally, HostGator provides access to the popular cPanel control panel as well as its very own website builder (check our best website builder list).Every web hosting plan includes an industry-leading 45-day money-back guarantee alongside a 99.9% uptime guarantee. HostGator also provides free transfers for new accounts within 30 days of signup, and to newly upgraded accounts.Check out the cheap web hosting packages from HostGatorhttp://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/YkzGRBQeR534kM2y4n8VwE.jpgGoDaddy Economy(US) $1 (there is a sale at the time of writing, usual price is $4.49) per month for the first year, renews at $7.99 per month(UK) £1 (there is a sale at the time of writing, usual price is £3.99) per month for the first year, renews at £5.99 per month plus VATGoDaddy is the second of the triumvirate of ‘uber web hosting’ companies (the two others being EIG and 1&1) that we’ve listed in this buying guide. Its Economy package has to be one of the best on the market with GoDaddy flexing its (virtual) muscles to deliver exceptional value for money.As expected, you get a free domain name and oodles of storage (100GB) along with unlimited bandwidth, plus free Microsoft Office 365 Business Email for a year (a freebie worth $73 (£55)).Support is delivered 24/7 via a toll-free line and GoDaddy even guarantees 99.9% uptime for this service. Add in 1-click install functionality for more than 125 applications, DDoS protection, plus 1GB of MySQL database storage and you’ve bagged yourself a pretty solid offering. The only true limitation is the fact that you won’t be able to host more than one website, but that’s a common theme across the budget board.Check out the cheap web hosting packages from GoDaddyThose looking for GoDaddy hosting outside of the UK should check herehttp://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/XH2GNecBGA9VEfEecX5mFT.jpg1&1 Ionos Business(US) $12 for the first year, renews at $8 per month(UK) £12 for the first year, renews at £5 per month plus VATLike many other premium web hosting companies, 1&1 IONOS offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

As with other EIG members, you get Google and Bing advertising credits and 24/7 support.The money-back guarantee is an industry average 30-days and you don’t get domain privacy, website security or backup as standard. As a sweetener, iPage includes a domain name (for a year) plus free SiteLock security tools (although iPage doesn’t provide much detail as to what that actually includes).Check out the cheap web hosting packages from iPagehttp://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/ujWdt9nDuRLSAbApwEptGe.jpgTsohost Personal Cloud Web Hosting$45.60 (£35.04) a year when purchased for two years, renews at the same priceTsohost is owned by GoDaddy and operates solely in the UK.

Its Unlimited package delivers an attractive hosting solution if you have ambitions to grow your website business fast. For £9 per month for the first year, you can host 10 websites, which is particularly impressive seeing as many of these cheap deals limit you to just one site, as we’ve seen.You also get three domain names (which are free for a year) plus you get unlimited web space, unlimited bandwidth, unlimited databases (up to 1GB each), a free SSL certificate, unlimited FTP accounts, website backup and restore, scheduled tasks, IP address blocking and website directory indexing plus a JavaScript generator and Linux apps (WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Media Wiki and eCommerce).Sadly you only get one 5GB mailbox, which is poor compared to the competition, and the monthly cost of renewing the service after a year gets considerably more expensive.Check out the cheap web hosting packages from 123 RegYou might also want to check out our other website hosting buying guides:WordPressCloud hostingE-commerceDedicated serverSmall businessWindowsManagedGreenBusinessColocationEmail hostingResellersVPSSharedWebsite buildersBest website hostinghttp://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/n4Ci4NVYiZo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
