Nosso veredito

Vultr
Choose Vultr if you prioritise the lower advertised entry price ($5.00/mo). Many locations, host services close to users for low-latency apps. On the trade-off side, lock down server images yourself. Stock images not enough for strict rules.

Nossa escolha
WP Engine
Choose WP Engine if you prioritise the higher overall score in our matrix (9.0 vs 8.9) and faster median TTFB in our probes (245 ms vs 278 ms). Managed updates, caching, and scaling, so developers focus on features. On the trade-off side, far above shared hosting cost. Hard to justify for low-traffic blogs.
