HosterSale sells cPanel web hosting on LiteSpeed servers with NVMe storage in two lines — four "Cheap Hosting" plans for one site up to unlimited sites, and four "Web Hosting" plans aimed at small businesses and agencies — alongside WordPress Care maintenance plans, WHM reseller packages, dedicated servers, cloud VPS and domain registration. Prices are quoted in US dollars, with a separate rupee storefront under /pk/ for customers in Pakistan.
The prices we track are the storefront's headline figures: the 1-year term for shared hosting and WordPress Care, the monthly rate for reseller packages, cloud VPS and dedicated servers. HosterSale states that renewals cost the same as sign-up, which is unusual in budget hosting, where first-term discounts often end in a much higher renewal. Dedicated servers add a one-time setup fee of $24.99 to $49.99.
The website does not publish a company name, registration number or address. The terms of service (last updated in November 2020) refer to "HosterSale.com", the SLA page to "HosterSale Networks", and the phone contact is a Pakistani WhatsApp number. Company details on this page come from HosterSale's own application to DohoHub.
Cloud VPS plans run in Falkenstein, Nuremberg, Helsinki, Hillsboro, Ashburn and Singapore, with root access, a browser VNC console and dedicated IPv4 and IPv6, and HosterSale says a new server is live in about a minute. They are priced per region: European plans include 20 TB of traffic a month, US plans 1–5 TB depending on the plan, and the same configuration costs more in the USA and Singapore than in Europe. Configurations marked sold out on the storefront are left out of our list until they return. Shared-hosting server locations are not stated anywhere on the site.
The 30-day money-back guarantee covers hosting plans; the FAQ excludes domains, VPS and dedicated servers, and the terms also exclude add-ons and domain fees. The storefront advertises 99.9% uptime, while the SLA page guarantees 99.99% network uptime with service credits — the SLA is the commitment that pays out.
SSD Nodes is a budget-focused VPS provider founded in 2011 and headquartered in Tustin, California. It rents capacity from the Hivelocity data center network and runs its own Vippy virtualization stack, which lets it offer KVM plans with 8 GB RAM and up from just $5.50/mo on 3-year terms. The company is deliberately VPS-only and covers 14 locations across the US, Canada, Europe and Asia-Pacific.

FAQ
Right now HosterSale has the lower entry price across the plans we track. Prices update every few hours — the live snapshot above always shows the current starting price for both.
Over the last 30 days of our monitoring, HosterSale had the higher measured uptime. We ping both providers every few minutes from multiple locations — see the uptime graph above.
Yes. Both run standard KVM virtualization, so you can snapshot your server, export the image, and import it on the other provider. For most stacks a fresh deploy plus a data copy is simpler.
It depends on your priority: pick the one that wins on the rows that matter most to you in the table above (price, uptime, datacenters, backups). For latency-sensitive apps favour uptime and network; for value favour price and specs.
