Best Shared Web Hosting in Brazil (2026) – 8 Providers Compared on Renewal Price 🇧🇷
HostGator Brasil publishes a page promising no surprises at renewal. That page still lists its renewal prices under Plano Start, P, M and Turbo. The plans actually on sale today are called Growth, Scale and Ultimate. The numbers are real and useful, but you have to know which retired name maps to the plan you're buying. That's the state of shared hosting pricing in Brazil right now: the renewal figures exist, they're just filed somewhere you won't look.
So we dug them out. Every provider below is ranked on what you pay in year two, not year one. Two names from the previous version of this guide were dropped because they no longer sell hosting at all.
Quick answer: HostGator Brasil gives you the most for your money once the promo ends, at 100 GB for BRL 31.39/month (USD 6.19). If you want no renewal jump at all, Umbler and UOL Host hold their price permanently. HostMídia has the gentlest promo-to-renewal step in this list at 1.40x, plus a 45-day refund window. Skip Hostinger's Unlimited tier unless you're fine with a 5.00x renewal.

How We Selected These Providers
Every price here came off the provider's own checkout or pricing page in July 2026, not from a comparison site. Where a host publishes a separate renewal table, we used that number rather than the crossed-out figure on the sales page. The two disagree more often than you'd expect.
We required a shared hosting product that a new customer can actually buy today. Two names from the previous version of this guide failed that test. Weblink now redirects to Hostinger, and RedeHost redirects to Umbler. Neither sells anything under its own brand anymore. Both still appear on Brazilian "best hosting" lists.
Because this is a location guide, we weighted Brazilian server presence heavily, then renewal cost. After that came the contract small print: refund window, uptime commitment as written in the terms, and whether backups run automatically. Reputation came from Reclame Aqui, Brazil's consumer complaint platform, using the January to June 2026 window. We used the consumer satisfaction average and the "would do business again" rate, not just the headline reputation score. Those three numbers diverge sharply at some hosts.
What we didn't do: run load tests or measure latency ourselves. We have no Brazilian test infrastructure, so any speed claim below is attributed to whoever produced it. Homehost doesn't publish a renewal price at all, so we couldn't calculate its multiplier.
HostGator Brasil – Best storage per real at renewal
Start with the contradiction. HostGator Brasil's renewal transparency page is more informative than anything its competitors publish, listing regular prices across six billing cycles. It also still uses plan names the company retired. Plano P is now Growth, M is now Scale, Turbo is now Ultimate. Worse, the crossed-out "was" price on the sales page reads BRL 1,652.04 for three years of Growth. The official renewal table says BRL 1,130.04. The table is the number that governs your invoice.
Once you untangle that, this is the best-value renewal in Brazilian shared hosting, and it isn't close. Growth renews at BRL 31.39/month (USD 6.19) for 100 GB of NVMe storage, a faster type of solid-state drive. That works out to 3.19 GB per real per month. Locaweb's entry plan gives you 0.60 GB per real at renewal and KingHost gives 0.33 GB. HostGator is roughly five times better than Locaweb on that measure and nearly ten times better than KingHost.
Traffic allowances are generous too. Growth permits 80,000 visits a month against Locaweb Go's 20,000, at a similar promo price. Servers sit in Brazil, backups run daily, and migration is free and unlimited. You also get a free content delivery network, a global cache that serves your files from the location nearest each visitor.
Reclame Aqui is where the shine comes off. HostGator scored 8.3/10 over the first half of 2026, but that's the platform's reputation formula. Customers who actually rated their complaint gave 6.98, and only 71.8% would buy again. It also logged 2,039 complaints in six months, four times KingHost's 522.
- 100 GB NVMe on the entry plan, more than any rival at this price
- Renewal is 3.13x, low relative to the field
- 80,000 monthly visits at entry level
- Daily backups and free CDN included
- Renewal table uses four retired plan names
- Sales page strikethrough price contradicts the official renewal table
- Highest complaint volume here by a wide margin
Pricing: Growth BRL 10.09/month (USD 1.99) on three years, BRL 361.61 upfront, renewing at BRL 1,130.04 per three years. Scale BRL 11.49 renewing at 3.57x. Ultimate BRL 18.69 renewing at 3.57x. Monthly billing is brutal: Plano P alone costs BRL 45.89/month at regular price. Refund window 30 days.
Best for: storage-hungry sites that will still be here in year four. Skip if: you want to pay month to month.
Verdict: Buy HostGator Brasil if you're prepaying three years and storage matters. Nothing else in Brazil gives you 100 GB for BRL 31.39 at renewal. If you can't commit for three years, go to Umbler, which charges one flat rate forever. If support quality is your first concern, KingHost's customers rate it a full point higher.
Hostinger – Best entry price if you can prepay 48 months
Forty-eight months. That's the commitment behind the BRL 5.99/month you see advertised, and it means BRL 287.52 leaves your account on day one. Hostinger is upfront about this, printing both the total and the renewal figure directly under each plan, which is more than Locaweb or Homehost manage.
The São Paulo data center is the real reason to consider it. Hostinger opened the Tier-3 facility in 2022 and it serves shared, WordPress and cloud plans. The company says sites load up to twice as fast for Brazilian visitors when hosted there, measured with GTmetrix, a page-speed testing tool. That's a vendor claim, so treat it as directional.
Watch the tier you pick, because the renewal multipliers are wildly inconsistent. Single goes from BRL 5.99 to BRL 23.99 (4.01x). Premium goes 3.55x. Unlimited, the tier the pricing page nudges you toward, jumps from BRL 12.99 to BRL 64.99, a 5.00x step. That's the steepest single-tier increase in this comparison. HostMídia's equivalent step is 1.40x, and HostMídia throws in a 45-day refund against Hostinger's 30.
Storage is the other soft spot. Single ships 10 GB of SSD against HostGator Growth's 100 GB of NVMe at a comparable promo price. Backups on Single and Premium run weekly, not daily. KingHost, Locaweb and HostGator all back up every day at entry level. A week of lost work is a genuinely different problem from a day of it.
Reclame Aqui rates Hostinger 8.8/10 and awards it an RA1000 seal, the platform's top reputation badge. It resolved 92% of complaints, and 82.1% would buy again, the highest figure in this article.
- Best-rated of the large hosts on repurchase intent
- Tier-3 São Paulo data center since 2022
- Renewal price printed under every plan
- Free domain and 30-day refund
- Headline price needs a four-year prepayment
- Unlimited tier renews at 5.00x
- Weekly, not daily, backups below the Unlimited tier
Pricing: Single BRL 5.99/month (USD 1.18), BRL 287.52 for 48 months, renewing at BRL 23.99/month. Premium BRL 10.99 renewing at BRL 38.99. Unlimited BRL 12.99 renewing at BRL 64.99. Cloud Startup BRL 39.99 renewing at BRL 129.99. Payment splits into 12 instalments.
Best for: first sites where the four-year total is affordable upfront. Skip if: you need daily backups on a cheap plan.
Verdict: Take Hostinger Single if you want the lowest genuine four-year cost with Brazilian servers and you'll actually keep the site that long. Anyone eyeing Unlimited should price HostGator Ultimate instead, which renews at BRL 66.49 for 150 GB against Hostinger's BRL 64.99 for 50 GB. If four years feels absurd for a project you might abandon, UOL Host bills monthly at a stable rate.
UOL Host – Best flat pricing, worst small print
Here's what UOL Host doesn't put on its shared hosting page: any refund guarantee, any uptime figure, any mention of an SLA. We checked the rendered page for all three and found zero matches. What it does say, three times, is "backup manual." You are responsible for your own backups. Every other provider in this comparison runs them automatically.
The pricing has a genuine oddity worth understanding before you buy. Switch the toggle from annual to monthly and the plans keep their names but quietly get worse. Plano P annual costs BRL 24.90/month for 20 GB, five mailboxes and a free domain. Plano P monthly costs BRL 29.90 for 10 GB, two mailboxes and no domain. You pay 20% more for half the storage. Same company, same plan name, one page.
Now the upside, and it's real. UOL Host advertises no promotional-to-renewal split. The annual rate is the rate. Against Locaweb's entry plan, which quadruples from BRL 5.90 to BRL 24.90, UOL Host's Plano PP sits at BRL 19.90/month indefinitely. Over three years, PP costs BRL 716.40. Locaweb Go costs BRL 70.80 in year one, then BRL 597.60 across the next two, landing at BRL 668.40. Close enough that predictability wins for a lot of buyers.
Infrastructure is Brazilian and the panel is cPanel rather than something proprietary, which matters when you eventually migrate away. UOL Host answers Reclame Aqui complaints in 6 days 11 hours, faster than Locaweb's 12 days 7 hours. But only 70.5% would buy again, the lowest of any provider here.
- No renewal increase on annual plans
- Standard cPanel, not a proprietary panel
- Free domain on annual plans
- Fastest complaint response among the four largest hosts
- Manual backups only, on every tier
- No refund guarantee or uptime figure published
- Monthly billing costs more and delivers less
Pricing (annual): PP BRL 19.90/month (USD 3.93), BRL 238.80/year, 10 GB, 1 site. P BRL 24.90, 20 GB, 2 sites. M BRL 29.90, 30 GB, unlimited sites, 20 mailboxes. G BRL 39.90, 40 GB. Monthly billing starts at BRL 29.90 with reduced specs.
Best for: buyers who value a fixed invoice over a cheap first year. Skip if: you won't remember to back up manually.
Verdict: Choose UOL Host on an annual plan if predictable billing beats everything else and you already run your own backups. Want the same flat-price logic with automatic backups and a published SLA? HostMídia costs BRL 14.99 promotional and BRL 20.99 at renewal. That undercuts UOL Host's PP and includes daily backups. If you need a refund safety net, almost anyone else here offers 30 days.
Locaweb – Best owned infrastructure, weakest shared SLA
Locaweb markets 99.9% uptime. Its own support documentation puts the shared hosting SLA at 99.5% per month. That difference sounds trivial and isn't: 99.9% allows about 43 minutes of downtime a month, while 99.5% allows roughly 3 hours 39 minutes. Compensation runs on a sliding scale from 5% to 30% of the fee. And you have to open a support ticket to even receive your availability data. It isn't credited automatically.
The infrastructure argument is strong, though. Locaweb has operated since 1997, runs two of its own Tier III data centers in São Paulo plus one in Miami, and is publicly traded. It isn't reselling anyone's capacity. For buyers who want a Brazilian company with Brazilian metal and a public balance sheet, that shortlist is short.
Pricing follows the standard pattern with an unusually steep first step. Hospedagem Go runs BRL 5.90/month then renews at BRL 24.90, a 4.22x increase, the second-steepest here after Hostinger's Unlimited. It also caps you at 20,000 monthly visits and 15 GB. HostGator Growth costs BRL 10.09 promotional but delivers 100 GB and 80,000 visits, so Locaweb's cheaper headline buys a quarter of the traffic headroom.
Move up and it improves. Hospedagem I at BRL 10.90 unlocks unlimited sites and 35 GB. Hospedagem Dedicada 4 GB renews at just 1.80x, the mildest step in Locaweb's range. Reclame Aqui gives Locaweb an RA1000 seal and 8.7/10, with 94.3% of complaints resolved. The response time is the problem: 12 days 7 hours on average, roughly six times Umbler's 2 days 5 hours.
- Two company-owned Tier III data centers in São Paulo
- Unlimited sites from BRL 10.90/month
- 94.3% complaint resolution rate
- Free domain, free migration, 30-day refund
- Shared SLA is 99.5%, not the 99.9% marketed
- Entry plan renews at 4.22x and caps 20,000 visits
- Slowest complaint response measured here
Pricing: Go BRL 5.90/month (USD 1.16) renewing at BRL 24.90. Hospedagem I BRL 10.90 renewing at BRL 37.90. Hospedagem II BRL 16.90 renewing at BRL 59.90. Dedicada 4 GB BRL 49.90 renewing at BRL 89.90. Promotional rate covers the first billing cycle only.
Best for: Brazilian businesses that want a domestic, listed provider with its own facilities. Skip if: 3 hours 39 minutes of monthly downtime would hurt you.
Verdict: Locaweb earns its place if owned Brazilian infrastructure and a 94.3% resolution rate are what you're buying. Hospedagem I is the tier that makes sense, not Go. If a written uptime commitment matters more, KingHost, HostMídia and Homehost all state 99.9%. If you need answers within hours rather than days, Umbler responds in about two days.
KingHost – Best customer-rated support in Brazil
Say you're a small agency in Porto Alegre running five client sites. You need SSH access (a secure command-line connection to the server), and you want someone answering in Portuguese at 2am. KingHost Hospedagem III covers exactly that, at BRL 19.99/month on a two-year term. You get 5 sites, 25 GB, 100 mailboxes, SSH, Git, Python and multiple PHP versions.
What sets it apart is that customers rate it highest. KingHost's Reclame Aqui consumer average is 8.03 out of 10, above Hostinger's 7.84, Locaweb's 7.66, UOL Host's 7.39 and HostGator's 6.98. It resolved 95.1% of complaints, the best rate here, from a base of 522 complaints against HostGator's 2,039. The security stack is unusually complete for shared hosting: ModSecurity, DDoS protection, malware detection and antivirus all come standard.
Two things to know before buying. First, KingHost has been part of the Locaweb group since May 2019, so pairing the two isn't provider diversification. It runs its own team and infrastructure, and the products really do differ, but the corporate risk is shared. Second, and nobody flags this one, read the checkout footnote. It says "valores sujeitos a reajuste anual conforme índice previsto no contrato." Prices adjust annually to a contract inflation index. That sits on top of the promotional-to-regular jump. KingHost also discloses approximately 10.15% in taxes.
Renewal steps are moderate by local standards. Hospedagem I goes from BRL 9.99 to about BRL 29.90 (2.99x), the lowest multiplier of the big four. But at BRL 29.90 you're getting 10 GB, where HostGator Growth gives 100 GB for BRL 31.39.
- Highest customer satisfaction score in this comparison
- 95.1% of complaints resolved
- SSH, Git and Python on shared plans
- Daily backups and 99.9% uptime stated
- Annual inflation-indexed price adjustment in the contract
- Only 10 GB at entry level
- Same corporate group as Locaweb
Pricing: Hospedagem I BRL 9.99/month (USD 1.97), BRL 239.76 for two years, regular BRL 717.60. Hospedagem II BRL 15.99 (3.13x). Hospedagem III BRL 19.99 (3.80x). Free domain, free migration, 30-day refund, 12 instalments.
Best for: developers and agencies who will actually contact support. Skip if: you need lots of storage cheaply.
Verdict: KingHost is the pick when support quality outranks specs, and its 8.03 customer score backs that up rather than a marketing page. If you need volume storage, HostGator Growth gives you ten times the disk for two reais more at renewal. If you're already a Locaweb customer looking to spread risk across companies, this isn't the answer; Umbler or HostMídia is.
Umbler – Best for no renewal jump and fast support
Where every provider above doubles, triples or quintuples your bill at renewal, Umbler charges the same rate in year five as in month one. Its pricing page is headed "Preços sem pegadinhas," prices without tricks. The model backs it up: you buy resources monthly, with no promotional period to expire. The popular tier is BRL 34/month for 1 GB RAM, 10 GB SSD and 2 CPU cores.
This is also where RedeHost went. Umbler acquired it in 2020, migrated the customer base, and closed the platform to new signups. If a comparison page is still selling you RedeHost shared hosting in 2026, this is the product it actually becomes.
Support response is the standout number. Umbler answered Reclame Aqui complaints in an average of 2 days 5 hours across the first half of 2026. Locaweb took 12 days 7 hours and KingHost 10 days 15 hours. That's more than five times faster than the market leader. It carries an RA1000 seal at 8.3/10 from a small base of 125 complaints.
The trade-offs are sharp and you should weigh them properly. Umbler's terms of service commit to 99% monthly availability, the weakest written guarantee here. That allows around 7 hours 18 minutes of downtime a month. The refund window is 7 days, not 30. And it's expensive per gigabyte: BRL 34 buys 10 GB, so 0.29 GB per real, against HostGator's 3.19 GB per real at renewal. There's a 7-day free trial and free migration help, which softens the short refund period.
- No promotional pricing, so no renewal increase
- Fastest complaint response measured here
- 7-day free trial before paying anything
- Resources scale up individually as you grow
- 99% SLA, the lowest written commitment here
- 7-day refund window
- Most expensive per gigabyte of storage
Pricing: Elástico from BRL 24/month (USD 4.74) for 512 MB RAM and 1 GB SSD. BRL 34/month for 1 GB RAM and 10 GB SSD. BRL 55/month for 2 GB and 20 GB. Dedicated servers from BRL 189/month. No contract, no renewal change.
Best for: buyers who refuse to prepay years or track renewal dates. Skip if: you need cheap bulk storage.
Verdict: Umbler is the right call for anyone burned by a renewal invoice who wants the number to simply stay put. Support replies in days rather than weeks. If your priority is storage per real, HostGator Growth beats it eleven times over. If you want flat pricing with a stronger 99.9% SLA and a 45-day refund, HostMídia does that for less money.
HostMídia – Best renewal terms and refund window
1.40x. That's HostMídia's promotional-to-renewal multiplier, and it's less than half the field average. The mechanism is unusual: 50% off the first payment, then 30% off forever at renewal. START goes from BRL 14.99/month to roughly BRL 20.99, where Locaweb's entry plan goes from BRL 5.90 to BRL 24.90. HostMídia starts higher and finishes cheaper.
It also offers the longest refund window here at 45 days, against 30 days at HostGator, Hostinger, Locaweb and KingHost, and 7 at Umbler. For a shared plan you can't properly evaluate in a fortnight, that's a meaningful difference. There's no setup fee, migration is free, and backups run daily. The stated uptime guarantee is 99.9%, half a percentage point better than Locaweb's actual shared SLA.
You choose your data center at signup, Brazil or the United States. That's rare and useful if part of your audience sits abroad. The company has been operating for 22 years and lists a São Paulo address on Avenida Paulista.
Now the honest caveat, and it's the reason this isn't ranked first. HostMídia has effectively no public review record. Reclame Aqui shows just 3 complaints in the first half of 2026. That's not enough to calculate a reputation score, and the company is unverified on the platform. It resolved 33.3% of those complaints, with an average response time of 22 days 1 hour. Compare that to KingHost's 369 rated complaints and 95.1% resolution. You're buying better contract terms with far less evidence behind them. Phone support is also gated: START gets chat and email only, while PRO and above add telephone.
- Lowest renewal multiplier at 1.40x
- 45-day refund, the longest here
- Choice of Brazilian or US data center
- Daily backups and 99.9% uptime guarantee
- Almost no independent review data
- 22-day average complaint response
- No phone support on the entry plan
Pricing: START BRL 14.99/month (USD 2.96) on 36 months, BRL 539.82 upfront, 20 GB, 1 site. PRO BRL 22.49, 100 GB, unlimited sites and mailboxes, free domain. BUSINESS BRL 34.99. PREMIUM BRL 49.99, 150 GB. All renew at 30% below list.
Best for: buyers who read contracts and care most about year two onward. Skip if: you want a large review record before committing.
Verdict: Pick HostMídia PRO if the renewal multiplier decides it for you. At 1.40x with unlimited sites for BRL 22.49, it's the best long-run arithmetic here. If you'd rather buy on proven support performance, KingHost has 369 rated complaints and a 8.03 customer score against HostMídia's three complaints and no score. If you need phone support cheaply, HostMídia's entry tier won't give it to you.
Homehost – Best storage per real
Homehost's Start plan delivers 50 GB of NVMe storage for BRL 7.90/month on a 36-month term. Flex gives 100 GB for BRL 9.90. Business gives 500 GB for BRL 16.90. Nothing else in Brazilian shared hosting comes close on raw disk. Business works out to 29.6 GB per real per month. KingHost's entry tier manages 1.00 GB and Hostinger Single manages 1.67 GB.
If you're hosting media libraries, photo archives or a WordPress install that has accumulated a decade of uploads, that gap is the entire decision. Business also covers up to 120 sites and includes a free domain for the first year. The company holds a 99.9% SLA with a proportional discount when it's missed. It has been registered on Reclame Aqui for 17 years and operates out of Rio de Janeiro.
Three caveats, and they're not small. The refund window is 14 days, the shortest of any provider here except Umbler, and less than half what HostGator or Hostinger offer. Support is not 24/7: it runs Monday to Friday 08:00 to 23:00 and weekends 09:00 to 18:00, by phone and WhatsApp. HostGator, Hostinger, Locaweb, KingHost and HostMídia all staff support around the clock. And Homehost doesn't publish a renewal price anywhere on its plan pages, so the "a partir de" figure is a floor with no stated ceiling.
Its Reclame Aqui numbers are thin and mixed. Seventeen complaints in six months, 100% answered, average response of 1 day, which is the fastest here. But 81.8% resolved, a 6.27 consumer average and 63.6% would buy again, all the weakest figures in this comparison. Small sample, genuinely fast replies, unimpressive outcomes.
- 50 GB at BRL 7.90, 500 GB at BRL 16.90
- NVMe storage across all tiers
- One-day average complaint response
- 99.9% SLA with proportional compensation
- Renewal price not published
- 14-day refund window
- Support closes overnight and early at weekends
Pricing: Start BRL 7.90/month (USD 1.56), 50 GB, 1 domain, 5 mailboxes. Flex BRL 9.90, 100 GB, 5 sites. Business BRL 16.90, 500 GB, 120 sites, free domain. Cloud Avançado BRL 34.90 on 24 months, 1000 GB. All shorter-term rates are higher.
Best for: storage-heavy sites on a tight budget. Skip if: you need overnight support or a published renewal price.
Verdict: Homehost Business is the answer when you need hundreds of gigabytes and refuse to pay VPS prices. Nothing in Brazil matches 500 GB at BRL 16.90. If you want that much storage with 24/7 support and a known renewal figure, HostGator Ultimate gives 150 GB at BRL 66.49 with both. If the 14-day refund worries you, HostMídia gives you 45 days to decide.
