The short version: Hostinger gives far more RAM, disk and bandwidth for the money, even at its renewal prices, as long as you prepay two years. VeloxaHost costs less for a small server you run for a few hours, days or months, because you pay only for the hours it runs and nothing up front.
Who should pick Hostinger
- You want the most RAM per dollar. KVM 1 has 4 GB of RAM, four times Veloxa Nano's 1 GB. Even at its $11.99 renewal price, 4 GB on VeloxaHost (Veloxa 2) costs $15 a month.
- You are happy to prepay two years. At the intro price, KVM 1 is $155.76 for 24 months. If you know the server will run that long, that is hard to beat.
- You need the bigger sizes. KVM 2 at renewal ($14.99) has twice the RAM and more disk than Veloxa 2 ($15). KVM 4 and KVM 8 renew at $28.99 and $49.99 with double the RAM of Veloxa 4 and Veloxa 8.
- You move a lot of data. Hostinger lists 4 TB of bandwidth on KVM 1 and up to 32 TB on KVM 8. VeloxaHost does not publish a transfer allowance.
- You need a full virtual machine or a public address on every port. Hostinger's VPS plans are KVM machines, and Hostinger says each comes with a dedicated IP address. On VeloxaHost a dedicated IPv4 address is a paid add-on, and none are available in US East right now.
Who should pick VeloxaHost
- Your servers are short-lived or bursty. A server billed by the hour costs $0.01 an hour on Veloxa Nano and stops costing anything once you delete it. A test box you run for a week costs cents, not a two-year prepay.
- You do not want a long prepay. There is no term: each server is charged by the hour and capped at its monthly price, and the price does not jump at renewal.
- You might delete the server next month. A side project, a staging copy or a client trial does not have to be paid for 24 months in advance.
- You want hosting and servers in one place. Managed hosting from $6.99 a month (3 sites, deployed from Git, backups on the schedule you choose, one-click WordPress) sits next to root VPS in the same account and on one invoice.
- You take a lot of snapshots. Snapshots come with every size, within the size's limit, with one-click rollback.
- You want apps ready to go. 63 one-click apps, including WordPress, PostgreSQL, Redis, Grafana, Gitea, n8n and Ollama.
Migrating from Hostinger
There is no automatic importer. A move of one server usually goes like this:
- Note the plan, disk use, open ports, firewall rules and DNS records. Pick the VeloxaHost size with at least the RAM your server actually uses, not the RAM the plan has: a KVM 1 that uses 800 MB fits a Veloxa Nano.
- A day before, lower the TTL on the DNS records you will change.
- Create the VeloxaHost server and add your SSH key, or start from a marketplace app if the Hostinger server ran one.
- Copy files with
rsyncover SSH. Move databases with their own tools (pg_dumpandpg_restore, ormysqldump). - Recreate firewall rules. A server answers on its block of ports on the shared IPv4; ports 80 and 443 need a dedicated IPv4 address, a paid add-on, and none are available in US East right now. A website on your own domain can run on managed hosting instead, which serves it over HTTPS without one.
- Test the new server, switch DNS, and once traffic has moved, cancel the Hostinger plan according to its terms.
