機能とサービス

Hostwinds has run since 2010, founded by CEO Peter Holden and based at 12101 Tukwila International Blvd in Seattle, ワシントン. For fifteen years it stayed independent, which was part of its appeal in developer circles. That changed on 29 4月 2026, when HostPapa announced it had acquired Hostwinds LLC. Every review dated before May 2026 therefore describes an independent company. Hostwinds’ own About page still doesn’t mention HostPapa; the client portal footer does, and now reads “© 2010-2026 Hostwinds, a HostPapa Inc. company.”

提供されるホスティングのタイプ

• Shared Hosting – three cPanel tiers, unlimited disk and bandwidth
• Business Hosting – the same tiers on LiteSpeed, a web server faster than standard Apache, with fewer accounts per machine
• Reseller and White Label Reseller – for agencies billing their own clients
• VPS Hosting – Linux and Windows, 管理されているか管理されていないか. VPS, または仮想プライベートサーバー, is your own isolated slice of a machine
• Cloud Servers – the same VPS tiers billed hourly
• Dedicated Servers and Colocation – bare metal, or your own hardware in Hostwinds’ racks

That’s an unusually wide ladder for a company this size, and the top of it is real. Hostwinds owns the hardware rather than reselling someone else’s cloud.

お客様が強調する主な機能

• Free dedicated IP on shared hosting: most hosts charge for this or reserve it for VPS. It helps if you send email from your site and don’t want a neighbour’s spam hurting your deliverability.
• Choice of data center at checkout: you pick Dallas, シアトル, or Amsterdam during the order, not afterwards via a ticket.
• 無料のウェブサイト移行: Hostwinds’ engineers move your site, and reviews report this going smoothly.

データセンターの場所

Three facilities: シアトル, ダラス, とアムステルダム, described on Hostwinds’ own page as “SAS Type II, audited, ティア 3+ Data centers.” That’s thin by 2026 standards but sensibly placed. Dallas covers the central and southern US, Seattle the Pacific Northwest and Asian routes, Amsterdam the whole of Europe. If your visitors are in South America, アフリカ, インド, またはオーストラリア, あらゆるリクエストは海を越えます. 一つ訂正: some aggregators list a Paris location. It doesn’t exist.

パフォーマンスの期待

A 99.9999% uptime guarantee appears on the homepage, the About page, and every VPS page. Six nines means 31 年間に許容されるダウンタイムの秒数. No shared host achieves that.

Website Planet recorded 99.982% uptime over three months using UptimeRobot. That’s normal for budget hosting, そしてについて 180 times more downtime than the guarantee allows: 95 minutes a year rather than 31 秒. Their GTmetrix runs found loads between 0.9 と 2.9 秒, averaging 1.82s, with international results from 0.697s to 4.364s. Fast near the data centers, inconsistent elsewhere.

Here’s what matters more than the number. We searched all 30,134 characters of Hostwinds’ Terms of Service for the word “uptime.” It appears zero times. There’s no SLA in the binding document, meaning no Service Level Agreement and no compensation defined when uptime is missed. A 2020 r/sysadmin thread shows the consequence: after a multi-day outage, Hostwinds emailed customers admitting it “dropped below our SLA guarantee,” while the poster reported “no indication of any sort of compensation.”

顧客体験

Aggregated across platforms, Hostwinds carries 4.4/5 から 1,521 カスタマーレビュー, and HostAdvice lists 4.7 based on expert ratings and 1,168 ユーザーレビュー. Those numbers describe a well-liked host.

Trustpilot disagrees, and it’s worth understanding why. 横切って 725 reviews the lifetime distribution is 454 五つ星 (62.6%), 91 四つ星 (12.6%), 33 三ツ星 (4.6%), 18 二つ星 (2.5%), と 129 一つ星 (17.8%). Average those and you get 4.0. The live TrustScore is 2.1, because the algorithm weights recent reviews far more heavily. So we counted the recent ones. In the twelve months to July 2026, Hostwinds received 14 レビュー. Eleven were one-star, averaging roughly 1.5 全体. の 2026 1人, ten of twelve are one-star.

There’s a mechanical reason. Until around November 2023, Hostwinds collected invited reviews in volume. 10月 2023 alone produced a run of short, ポジティブ, five-star entries about quick setup and fast chat replies. Then the invitations stopped, and the profile now shows no recent invited users. What’s left is organic, and people rarely write unprompted reviews about hosting that works. The good reviews are real. They’re just old.

お客様が賞賛するもの

Setup speed comes up constantly. “Took two minutes to set up.” “Piece of cake setting up the server.” For a host selling unmanaged VPS to people who know what they’re doing, instant provisioning is the feature that matters. Chat support draws warm reviews when the question is simple, and not only historically: “Best support team, amazing hosting” was posted in February 2025. Value for money is the other steady theme. The resources are generous for the money, and nobody feels ambushed at renewal.

一般的な苦情

Billing dominates, and the specifics repeat: キャンセル後も料金が継続する, refunds refused, unexpected line items. 二 2026 review titles: “Billing is a disaster – outdated and malicious” と “Charged for extra storage for a website stored elsewhere Not in Hostwinds!” One from January 2025 captures the pattern: “They Don’t Care – It’s AI Automated and Backed by their Terms of Use.”

言葉 “管理” is the second theme. 5月 2026 review is titled “Avoid Hostwinds: ‘Fully Managed’ is a Lie. Years of Data Lost Due to Their Negligence.” An earlier one reads “I paid for ‘managed’ cloud server and got neither management nor service.” The shared hosting page promises “Full Management” 追加料金なし. Buyers read that as a promise about their data. The terms don’t support it.

Third is support depth. Fast first replies, then generic advice that resolves nothing. Website Planet’s tester had an agent crash their site attempting a basic redirect. The problem isn’t rudeness. It’s competence past the obvious.

コミュニティからのフィードバック (Reddit & フォーラム)

Abuse reports are what experienced users warn about. A LowEndTalk reviewer who rated Hostwinds 3.5/5 in October 2021 called it “rock solid” と “good for production,” then added the catch: “they just roll over at any abuse report and so if anyone doesn’t like your site/s, good luck.” 別途, r/webhosting threads describe shared IPs blacklisted for spam, one customer unable to deliver email for two weeks. Aggressive fraud screening at signup also comes up, with new orders cancelled and reinstated only after photo ID.

On the HostPapa acquisition, LowEndTalk managed five mostly sarcastic comments, the sharpest being “Some things seemingly never change. The one and only HostPapa is at it again.” No detailed concerns yet. It’s early.

サポート品質

Channels are good: 24/7 ライブチャット, 発券業務, Eメール, and a real phone number at (888) 404-1279. Phone support alone puts Hostwinds ahead of budget rivals who route everything to chat. Trustpilot’s own data shows it replies to 57% 否定的なレビューの, 平均化 4.25 日々. That’s an engaged company. But a bit over half isn’t all of them.

When to Use Hostwinds

So who should actually buy this? Three groups get real value here.

理想的な用途

Developers who want cheap unmanaged servers fast: USD 4.99/mo for a 1GB VPS with full root access, provisioned in minutes, in the city you choose. You don’t need hand-holding and you keep your own backups anyway. This is the customer Hostwinds serves best.

People who hate renewal surprises: if a host has ever tripled your bill in year two, the flat pricing here is a relief. Note the store price rather than the advertised one, and the figure you write down stays the figure you pay.

Anyone needing US and EU presence from one account: ダラス, シアトル, and Amsterdam are selectable at checkout, with load balancing between them. For a business with customers on both sides of the Atlantic, that’s one vendor instead of two.

感謝していただけると幸いです

• You want to scale from shared hosting to colocation without changing provider
• You need hourly billing for short-lived work, 0.006931米ドル/時間から
• You want Windows VPS with a managed option, which many budget hosts don’t offer

When NOT to Use Hostwinds

誰にとっても合うホストはいない. Hostwinds is the wrong choice if any of these apply.

他の場所を探す

You want a meaningful money-back guarantee: これが一番大きいです. Hostwinds once advertised 60 日々. Today the terms require the refund request “within seventy-two (72) hours of the payment transaction time,” and anything outside that window is “considered invalid and not eligible for a refund.” The refund is prorated, いっぱいではありません. No guarantee is advertised anywhere on the live site. Website Planet called Hostwinds unique among the top hosts for leaving customers without a refund option. Every review promising 30 また 60 days predates the change.

You’re relying on the host to keep your backups: the shared hosting page lists “夜間バックアップ” and tells you to “rest easy knowing your information will remain safe at Hostwinds.” The Terms of Service say the opposite, in plain words: “Hostwinds does not take backups of any kind of customer data, customer’s are responsible for managing and backing up their own data.” That’s the document governing your account. Buy the USD 3.00/mo add-on, run your own, or accept that a bad day means starting over.

You need a contractual uptime commitment: the advertised six nines has nothing behind it. If downtime costs you money and you need credits you can claim, 他の場所を見てください.

Your audience is outside North America and Europe: 3つのデータセンター, アジアには無い, 南アメリカ, アフリカ, またはオセアニア. Measured international load times reached 4.364s.

あなたの状況に対する危険信号

• Your site might attract abuse reports: the community consensus on how those get handled is consistent and unflattering.
• You want current dedicated hardware: entry bare metal is a 2014 Xeon with an HDD.
• You need a free domain: 一つもありません, and .com runs USD 19.09/yr.

これらのいずれかに該当する場合, 以下の代替案を参照してください.

Hostwinds Plans and Pricing

Credit first. Hostwinds runs no promotional-rate trick. There are no strikethrough prices, 番号 “first term only” アスタリスク, and the words “更新日” appear nowhere on its site. Domain prices are identical for registration, 移行, そしてリニューアル. In a market where 3x renewal jumps are standard, that’s better behaviour.

The problem is different, and stranger.

⚠️ Price Warning: Hostwinds’ product pages and Hostwinds’ actual store quote different prices. The shared hosting page advertises Basic at 6.99ドル/月. The store at clients.hostwinds.com quotes the same plan “から始まる” 8.99ドル/月. The gap is exactly USD 2.00/mo on all three shared tiers and all three business tiers. Then a USD 3.00/mo backup add-on arrives pre-ticked. Budget USD 11.99/mo for the plan advertised at USD 6.99.

Shared and Business Hosting

共有 (基本 / 高度 / 究極): advertised at USD 6.99, 8.99 and 10.99/mo. The store quotes USD 8.99, 10.99 and 12.99/mo.

仕事 (基本 / 高度 / 究極): advertised at USD 11.99, 13.99 and 16.99/mo. The store quotes USD 13.99, 15.99 and 18.99/mo.

All shared tiers include unlimited disk, 帯域幅, 電子メールアカウントとデータベース, plus cPanel, 無料のSSL, Softaculous, the Weebly builder, 無料の専用IP. The only difference between them is site count: 1, 4, or unlimited. Terms run from 1 に 36 月. Business adds LiteSpeed, higher PHP memory and inode limits, and a raised email cap. Hostwinds publishes none of those numbers, which makes the upgrade hard to price.

VPS, クラウドと専用

管理されていない Linux VPS: 4.99ドル/月 (1 CPU, 1GB RAM, 30GB SSD, 1結核転送) 最大 USD 328.99/月 (16 CPU, 96GB RAM, 750GB). Managed Linux: USD 7.14/mo for the same entry tier, up to USD 342.54/mo, a premium of about 43%. Managed covers OS updates, ウイルススキャン, 負荷のトラブルシューティング, boot failures, and package installs. cPanel/WHM licences cost extra.

クラウドサーバー: 0.006931米ドル/時間から, the monthly rate divided into hours. 1 つの警告: hourly-billed products are excluded from refunds entirely.

ひたむきな: from USD 122.00/mo for an Intel Xeon E3-1270 v3, 4 コアと 8 threads at 3.5GHz. RAM starts at 8GB (+米ドル 8.00), the default drive is a 1TB Enterprise HDD, bandwidth is 10TB. Look closely at that CPU. The E3-1270 v3 is a Haswell part Intel launched in 2014. At USD 122/mo with a spinning disk as standard, this is old hardware at a modern price.

注意すべき隠れたコスト

• Cloud Backups: USD 3.00/mo plus USD 0.03 1GBあたり. Pre-selected at checkout, and listed as an included “夜間バックアップ” feature on the shared hosting page.
• Hostwinds Monitoring: USD 2.00/月. Also listed as a shared hosting feature. Not pre-selected.
• ドメイン: no free year. .com costs USD 19.09/yr, .net USD 21.54, .org USD 20.39, .info USD 37.89, .co USD 57.75. 新しい, transfer and renewal prices match exactly, which is honest, but USD 19.09 for a .com is well above discount registrars.
• Migration and SSL: どちらも無料.

価格決定の評決

On paper Hostwinds behaves well, because the price you pay in month 25 is the price you paid in month one. That’s rarer than it should be, and it’s the best thing about buying here.

So why the warning? Because you can’t trust the number on the product page. 読んだ “6.99ドル/月,” click through, and check out without unticking the backup box, and you pay USD 11.99/mo. それは 1.7 times the advertised rate, reached without a single promotional price expiring. Most hosts hide the increase in year two. Hostwinds hides it between the ad and the cart.

Hostwinds Transparency Score

We assess how upfront Hostwinds is with information that affects your buying decision:

• 企業情報: 限定. 創業年, 創設者, and street address are published clearly. But three months on, the HostPapa acquisition appears nowhere on the About page, while the client portal footer already carries the new ownership line.
• 価格の透明性: 貧しい. Product pages quote prices USD 2.00/mo below what the store charges on every shared and business tier. Then the checkout configuration screen shows no plan price at all, for any billing term. The only prices visible there belong to the two add-ons, one of them pre-ticked. Credit where due: no hidden renewal increases, and domain renewals match registration exactly.
• 技術文書: 良い. VPS and cloud tiers are listed with full specs and per-tier pricing, and data center locations and certifications are published. Business hosting is the gap, sold on “higher PHP Memory Limits” と “higher inode limits” with no numbers attached.
• 条項 & ポリシー: 貧しい. The terms are complete and readable, which is exactly how we found they contradict the marketing twice over. Backups are promised on the product page and disclaimed in the terms. A 99.9999% guarantee is advertised in three places while “稼働時間” appears nowhere in the terms. The 72-hour refund window is disclosed only in the terms.

全体的な透明性: 貧しい. Everything is published, which is what makes this assessment possible. The documents just don’t agree. On backups, 稼働時間, 払い戻し, と価格, the version a buyer sees first is the flattering one. The binding version is the one they find later. A host that simply said “we don’t do backups, keep your own, here’s a USD 3 アドオン” would score better selling the same product.

Alternatives to Hostwinds

If Hostwinds doesn’t fit, これらの代替案は、その特有のギャップに対処します.

For a Real Refund Window: A Mainstream Shared Host

Seventy-two hours is an outlier. Thirty-day guarantees are standard in shared hosting, and several hosts go to 45 また 90 日々. 弊社のオプションを比較してください 共有ホスティング ガイド.

For Modern Dedicated Hardware: A Bare-Metal Specialist

A 2014 Xeon with an HDD at USD 122/mo isn’t competitive. Providers running recent AMD EPYC and NVMe, which is solid-state storage several times faster than a SATA SSD, offer more machine for the money. 私たちのを参照してください 専用サーバーガイド.

For European Hosting: An EU-Based Provider

Amsterdam is Hostwinds’ only European site, とサポート, 請求する, and company are all American. If your users and data live in Europe, a host based there usually means better latency and EU consumer protection. 私たちの オランダのホスティングガイド covers providers in the same city.

For Managed VPS Without the Ambiguity: A Managed Specialist

どういうことですか “管理” actually cover here? That ambiguity is the recurring complaint. Specialists define the boundary explicitly, and they back up your data as part of the service rather than as a USD 3.00/mo extra. 比較してください VPS ホスティング ガイド.

結論

この結果をコピーする

Hostwinds is a competent budget host with a serious documentation problem. The servers work, the prices don’t climb, and the infrastructure is its own. What it publishes about backups, 稼働時間, 払い戻し, and price doesn’t survive contact with its own terms and its own checkout.

結論

得点する 4.4/5 横切って 1,521 集約されたレビュー, yet its live Trustpilot score is 2.1, and eleven of its last fourteen Trustpilot reviews are one-star. That’s a host whose reputation was earned earlier than its current customers experienced it. The infrastructure is real and the flat pricing is a real advantage. The 72-hour refund window and the terms that disclaim your data aren’t things you can work around, only things you can plan for.

技術に詳しい人は買ってください, you keep your own backups, and you want cheap US or Dutch servers you can provision in minutes. Skip it if you’re new to hosting, if downtime costs you money, or if you might want out in week two. And whatever you buy, note the price in the cart, not the price in the ad.

よくある質問

Is Hostwinds good for beginners?

あまり. The cPanel setup and one-click installers are beginner-friendly enough. The policies aren’t. あなたが得る 72 hours to request a refund, and the terms state Hostwinds takes no backups of your data. Beginners need room to recover from mistakes. This host gives you very little.

Is Hostwinds worth the price?

It depends which price you mean. Shared hosting is advertised from USD 6.99/mo, but the store quotes USD 8.99/mo and a USD 3.00/mo backup add-on comes pre-ticked. That’s USD 11.99/mo unless you untick it: fair value, not a bargain. The unmanaged VPS at USD 4.99/mo is the better deal, and the price never rises at renewal.

顧客が最も不満を感じていることは何ですか?

請求する, 大差で. Charges after cancellation, refused refunds, and unexpected line items dominate negative reviews. Second is the word “管理”: customers who bought managed plans report losing data and being pointed at the terms. Third is support depth. 素早い返信, then generic advice that doesn’t fix the problem.

Does Hostwinds offer a money-back guarantee?

いいえ, not in any normal sense. Hostwinds used to advertise 60 日々. Today the terms require the request “within seventy-two (72) hours of the payment transaction time.” The refund is prorated, いっぱいではありません, and you must cancel in the client portal first. ドメイン, SSL証明書, IPアドレス, software licences and hourly-billed products are excluded entirely. Any review promising 30 また 60 days is out of date.

Does Hostwinds really guarantee 99.9999% 稼働時間?

That figure is advertised on the homepage, the About page, and every VPS page. Six nines allows 31 年間数秒のダウンタイム. We searched the entire Terms of Service for the word “稼働時間” and found it zero times, so there’s no SLA behind the claim and no compensation defined if it’s missed. UptimeRobot testing measured 99.982% 3か月以上. Fine for the price. Not what’s advertised.

Who owns Hostwinds now?

HostPapa, which announced the acquisition of Hostwinds LLC on 29 4月 2026. Founder Peter Holden, who ran it independently from 2010, said HostPapa “has built a world-class platform with the resources and reach to help us do that at a much larger scale.” Hostwinds’ About page still doesn’t mention the deal, though the client portal footer now reads “a HostPapa Inc. company.” Treat any review dated before May 2026 as describing a different company.

Is Hostwinds good for WordPress?

It’s adequate. Softaculous installs WordPress in one click on every shared plan, and Business Hosting adds LiteSpeed, which serves pages faster than Apache. What’s missing is the managed-WordPress toolkit: ステージングなし, no automatic core updates, backups only as a paid add-on. Website Planet measured LCP, or Largest Contentful Paint, at 665ms on an empty WordPress site and 1.5s on a built one. Fine numbers. Just don’t expect a WordPress specialist.
