Hostinger Changelog

What changed: Hostinger's shared plans page, read live on 2026-10-23 (US, 48-month term): Premium $2.49/month, renews $10.99; Unlimited $3.49/month, renews $16.99. The same plans read $2.99 (Premium) and $3.99 (Unlimited) on 2026-10-05, so both intro prices dropped; the renewal prices did not change. The third plan card, $7.99 renewing at $25.99, is labelled Ecommerce Startup on this page (our 2026-10-05 entry called it Cloud Startup).

Why it matters: The renewal multipliers are now 4.4x (Premium) and 4.9x (Unlimited). Our renewal ranking, the Hostinger review, the Hostinger vs Bluehost comparison and the cost forecaster were updated to match.

Affects: Hostinger Review, Hosting Renewal Prices

Read via Firecrawl (query, no cache, US location) from hostinger.com/web-hosting on 2026-10-23. Intro prices move with sales; the renewal prices are the stable figures.

What changed: Hostinger's technology page, read 2026-10-05, lists data centers in Europe (France, Germany, Lithuania, the Netherlands, UK), Asia (India, Indonesia, Malaysia), North America (Phoenix, Boston, Asheville) and South America (Brazil). Its server-location help page notes availability varies by plan.

Why it matters: Our Linux hosting guide listed a California data center and Singapore, which Hostinger no longer lists; the data center sentence was corrected.

Read via Firecrawl search on 2026-10-05 from hostinger.com/technology and hostinger.com/support/1583267-where-are-hostinger-servers-located/.

What changed: Hostinger hosting plans, read live 2026-10-05 (48-month term, USD, per month): Premium $2.99 renews $10.99 (3 websites, 20 GB SSD, weekly backups, free CDN); Unlimited $3.99 renews $16.99 (unlimited websites, 50 GB NVMe, daily backups, CDN); Cloud Startup $7.99 renews $25.99 (100 GB NVMe, daily and on-demand backups). 30-day money-back guarantee; free domain on plans of 12 months or more; LiteSpeed and hPanel.

Why it matters: Our Linux hosting guide described an entry plan limited to one site and 100 GB, and a Business plan as the popular tier. Corrected to the current Premium (3 sites, 20 GB) and Unlimited plans.

Affects: Best Linux Hosting Providers 2026, Best AI Website Builders 2026

Read via Firecrawl (maxAge 0) on 2026-10-05 from hostinger.com/pricing, /web-hosting and /ai-website-builder. The pricing page was read with the default view; a US storefront is assumed from the USD prices.

What changed: Hostinger's VPS page lists data centers in the USA, Brazil, France, Germany, the UK, Lithuania, India, Indonesia and Malaysia, and its contact page says customer success agents are available 24/7 with live chat. Our AI VPS article had described Hostinger's footprint as smaller than Hetzner's.

Why it matters: Hostinger's VPS footprint (nine countries) is wider than Hetzner's (four) but far below Vultr's 33 regions; the comparison wording was corrected.

Read via Claude in Chrome on 2026-09-28 from hostinger.com/vps-hosting and /contact (cookie banner not interacted with).

What changed: Hostinger VPS on 2026-09-28 (24-month term as shown): KVM 1 (1 vCPU / 4 GB / 50 GB NVMe) $6.49/mo, renews $11.99; KVM 2 (2 vCPU / 8 GB / 100 GB NVMe / 8 TB) $8.99/mo, renews $14.99 (list $24.49); KVM 4 (4 vCPU / 16 GB / 200 GB) $12.99/mo, renews $28.99; KVM 8 (8 vCPU / 32 GB / 400 GB) $25.99/mo, renews $49.99. Our AI VPS article had cited KVM 2 at ~$8.79/mo introductory and did not disclose the renewal rate.

Why it matters: KVM 2 renews about 67% above its intro price, so the "lowest entry price" framing needs the renewal disclosed. KVM 1 is unchanged from the figures on the OpenClaw hosting page ($6.49 intro / $11.99 renewal).

Read via Claude in Chrome on 2026-09-28 from hostinger.com/vps-hosting at the page's default (24-month) term; other terms were not captured. This is the VPS product page — the tracked pricing_url in host_pricing_urls.json points at web hosting, so VPS pricing is manual-only.

What changed: Hostinger India (hostinger.com/in/web-hosting, default 48-month term, INR) on 2026-09-28: Single ₹69/mo (renews ₹289), Premium ₹149/mo (renews ₹449), Unlimited ₹249/mo (renews ₹649; regular ₹699), Cloud Startup ₹599/mo (renews ₹1,599). Our India ecommerce guide cited Unlimited at ~₹219/mo. Hostinger's n8n VPS page (hostinger.com/self-hosted-n8n) lists the same four KVM prices as the VPS page: $6.49 / $8.99 / $12.99 / $25.99, renewing at $11.99 / $14.99 / $28.99 / $49.99 — an increase of 67–123%, not the 85–123% our n8n guide had stated.

Why it matters: India-guide price and renewal figures corrected; n8n renewal range corrected.

Affects: Indian Ecommerce Hosting, Self-Hosted n8n Hosting

Read via Claude in Chrome (India store) and firecrawl (n8n page) on 2026-09-28. The 48-month term is the page default; other terms were not captured.

What changed: Archived hostinger.co.uk: Single renews £2.99 (Mar 2022, Feb 2023, Feb 2024, Feb 2025), Premium £5.99. Live hostinger.com/uk 2026-09-28: Single £1.49 promo renews £7.99, Premium renews £10.99, Business £13.99, Cloud Startup £20.99 (48-month term). Archived hostinger.in: Single renews ₹159 (2022, 2023), ₹179 (2024, Mar 2025), Premium ₹249; live India store: Single ₹289, Premium ₹449. US store live: Premium $2.99 promo renews $10.99; no Single plan.

Why it matters: UK Single renewal +167% and India Single +82% since early 2025. Exact date unknown: Hostinger's 2026 pages sit under hostinger.com, which Wayback blocks.

Affects: Historical Hosting Price Tracker

hostinger.com is blocked from the Wayback Machine, but the regional domains (.co.uk, .in) were archived through early 2025.

What changed: Hostinger's tracked mid-tier plan, previously "Business," is now called "Unlimited" on the live pricing page. Its renewal price was cited at $8.99/mo (doesn't match any live tier) -- live is $3.99/mo intro, renewing at $16.99/mo (multiplier 2.25x -> 4.26x). Premium plan's intro price was also stale ($1.99 cited vs live $2.99; renewal $10.99 unchanged). The full pricing table's site/storage limits were stale too: Premium is 3 sites/20GB (was cited as 25 sites/100GB), Unlimited and Cloud Startup are both Unlimited sites now (was cited as 100/300), and Cloud Startup's renewal moved to $25.99/mo (was cited as $19.99/mo).

Why it matters: This is a significant reversal, not just a number update: Hostinger was previously cited sitewide as having 'the lowest renewal multiplier of any shared host.' At 4.26x, it now has one of the STEEPEST multipliers tracked in renewal_pricing.json -- only SiteGround (4.51x) is higher. web-hosting-renewal-prices.md's entire Hostinger narrative section, FAQ, and 'best pick' recommendation were rewritten, not just the numbers. Dozens of other pages citing the old $8.99 renewal figure or the 'Business' plan name were corrected across the site (reviews/hostinger.md, compare/hostinger-vs-bluehost.md, rocket-net-alternatives.md, and ~8 by-situation/woocommerce/india-hosting pages).
