Nosso veredito

DreamHost
Choose DreamHost if you prioritise the lower advertised entry price ($2.59/mo). 97-day refund, rare and reassuring after a bad previous host. On the trade-off side, no classic phone support on many plans. Chat and callbacks only.

Nexcess
Choose Nexcess if you prioritise faster median TTFB in our probes (248 ms vs 338 ms) and stronger rated support in our rubric. Staging and backups, faster recovery than generic shared hosting. On the trade-off side, high monthly cost, not for simple low-traffic blogs.
