Key differences

  • Hostinger's promo runs 48 months, so its 3-year total is a fraction of SiteGround's, whose 12-month promo then renews at $17.99/mo.
  • Both offer Asian data centers (SiteGround: Singapore), so both suit South and Southeast Asian audiences.
  • SiteGround's caching, staging and support reputation are its main reasons to pay more.
