Entry price

Under $5 a month

Combine filters →

Under five dollars buys shared hosting, maybe a tiny virtual machine. It may work to run one small website with little traffic. Take care about pricing tricks like renewal multiples: a first year at $2.99 renewing at $9.99. Where nobody charges at all, the register files it under free hosting instead.

48 providers start at under $5 a month, listed alphabetically. Mostly shared hosting, Virtual Private Servers and GPU cloud, of 13 categories in all. 53 records do not record this field, and cannot appear here either way.

Is the entry price what I will pay?

Often not. The entry price is what one small production app costs, sorted into a band. Traffic, storage, backups, extra environments and support often cost extra, and some hosts raise the price at renewal. Read the provider's pricing page before signing up; pricing features records how each one bills.

Which of these providers is best?

No idea. We list hosts, we don't rate them. Open the records that look close and compare them side by side; the guide says where to start.
