Hostamania vs Web Hosting Hub

You may have heard about Hostamania—the web hosting company formed last year by a partnership between Tech Assets, Inc. and wrestler Hulk Hogan. Indeed, the Hulkster has been promoting the company online and at personal appearances. With such a well-known personality as the face of this hosting company, many may be wondering what type of hosting package you get at Hostamania, and how they match up against other web hosts.

Hostamania provides the unlimited domains, disk space, and data transfer type of hosting package, so I think a good test would be to see how they compare with a company such as Web Hosting Hub—which offers similarly targeted hosting plans. Both of these hosting companies have different levels of shared hosting packages. Web Hosting Hub has three different plans (Spark, Nitro, and Dynamo), while Hostamania has two hosting plans (Standard and Pro).

The Pro Plan at Hostamania does have some nice extras like a dedicated IP, SSL, and SEO Audit. However, the cost is on the high side at $15.95 mo. That’s kind of surprising for a new hosting company where I would expect a lower initial price. The Standard plan costs less ($5.95 mo.) but you don’t get the above extras. By contrast, Web Hosting Hub’s base plan costs $3.99 mo. and also provides all of the unlimited features.

There are a number of similarities between these web hosting plans. In addition to the unlimited hosting features, both come with cPanel and Softaculous for easy application installations. However, the customer support at Web Hosting Hub is more extensive and includes live chat support. Also, with Hub you get a longer money back guarantee (90 days vs. 30 days at Hostamania).

If you’re a blogger or marketer and need to create multiple websites, both Hostamania and Web Hosting Hub are options worth considering. Given their longer track record and lower cost, I would lean towards Web Hosting Hub. The value you receive with their hosting plans gives them an edge in the shared hosting area. Below is a more detailed comparison. Hostamania’s more intriguing offering might be their Cloud Hosting plans.
