What you actually pay over 4 years
Hostinger's $2.49 a month is the 48-month price. You pay $119.52 on day one, and when that term ends it renews at $10.99 a month. Another 48 months at that rate comes to $527.52.
HostPanda Business is $21.99 a year, so 4 years costs $87.96. Paying monthly instead costs $191.52 over the same time, and you can stop whenever you like. The price you sign up at is the price you renew at.
Where Hostinger is ahead
Hostinger gives you twice the storage on this plan, a free domain for the first year, backups, a website builder and support around the clock. If those matter more to you than the renewal price, it's a good host.
Where HostPanda is ahead
You don't need to commit to four years to get a fair price. Unlimited email accounts are part of the plan, not a first-year extra. And you can start small on Starter at $1.99 a month, then move up when your site grows.
