Wonderly vs. Hostinger
Hostinger costs $1.99/month. Until your site goes down.
The hosting is cheap, but when daily outages hit and backups fail, the real cost is measured in lost clients and revenue. Service businesses need infrastructure that doesn't disappear during business hours. That's why we built Wonderly.

Why people switch
Three things Hostinger customers figure out after they've already committed.
-
Hostinger doesn't include phone, texting, or scheduling.
Hostinger gives you a website and email hosting. That's it. If you want to text customers, take calls, or let people book appointments online, you'll need to buy separate software for each one. Most service businesses need all three just to operate.
Wonderly includes phone, SMS, scheduling, CRM, and invoicing in one platform. $0 for the core tools, $395/month for AI automation — everything built-in.
-
The $1.99/month price requires paying $95.52 upfront.
Hostinger's advertised $1.99/month rate locks you into a 48-month contract billed upfront. You pay for four years before you've used the product for a week. If your business changes or you need different tools six months in, you've already paid.
Wonderly charges month-to-month. No annual contracts, no upfront payment for years you haven't used yet. Cancel anytime without losing money.
-
Frequent outages can take your website offline.
Hostinger's terms promise 99.9% uptime, but their own support forums show recurring maintenance windows and outages that disable website editors and hosting access. When your site goes down, so does your ability to capture new leads or let customers reach you.
Wonderly runs on enterprise-grade infrastructure with 99.9% uptime and real-time monitoring. If something breaks, you're not waiting days for a support ticket response.

Feature details
Here's a detailed look at Wonderly's features.
We know unpredictable pricing is stressful — that's why ALL AI features (Receptionist, Text, Automations) are included in one flat rate of $395/mo after the first 14 days. No surprises, ever.
The elephant in the room
But Hostinger is built for websites — not service businesses
Hostinger is great at what it does — affordable hosting, fast load times, and a solid website builder. But a website is just the storefront. It doesn't answer the phone, follow up with leads, send invoices, or book your next appointment.
Service business owners who switch to Wonderly aren't looking for cheaper hosting or a drag-and-drop builder. They're looking for fewer missed leads, faster follow-ups, and a system that books appointments while they're delivering the actual service.
Here's the real question: Do you need a website builder, or do you need a system that turns website visitors into paying customers?
The math doesn't lie.

FAQs
Common Questions
Everything you need to know about switching from Hostinger
Wonderly replaces your website builder, business phone system, CRM, scheduling tool, email marketing platform, project management software, invoicing system, and client portal — typically saving $300-500/month. Hostinger only covers website building and basic email marketing through Hostinger Reach, so you'd still need separate tools like Calendly for scheduling, RingCentral for phone service, Monday.com for project management, and QuickBooks for invoicing. Most contractors are paying for 5-6 different subscriptions that Wonderly handles in one platform.
Picture this: you're under a sink fixing a leak when a new lead calls. With Wonderly, your AI Receptionist answers immediately, qualifies the lead, books the appointment, and starts automated text and email follow-ups — all while you're still working. With Hostinger, that call goes to voicemail because they don't offer business phone service. You'd need to buy a separate phone system, then manually follow up later when you're done with the job. By then, that lead has probably already called three other contractors.
Wonderly's AI walks you through setup in about 20 minutes — website, CRM, phone system, automations, and booking calendar all ready to go. No agency needed, no tutorials to watch, no integrations to maintain. Hostinger requires you to piece together multiple services yourself, and users frequently report issues with their backup system failing and support being unresponsive during outages. Most contractors end up hiring agencies for $5,000+ setup plus $2,000/month maintenance, and 90% of those setups don't work properly.
Wonderly has no contracts — you can cancel anytime without penalty. Hostinger requires 48-month upfront commitments to get their promotional rates, and their renewal rates jump significantly (from $1.99/month promotional to $10.99/month renewal). If you want to leave Hostinger early, you're stuck paying for years of service you won't use. This becomes especially problematic given their frequent outages and poor support response times that users report on Reddit and Trustpilot.
Your business number is on your truck, Google listing, and business cards — you can't afford to lose it. Wonderly lets you port your existing number and have your AI Receptionist answering calls on day one of setup. Hostinger doesn't offer business phone service at all, so you'd need to find and pay for a separate VoIP provider, then figure out how to connect it to your other tools. With Wonderly, your phone, CRM, and follow-up automations all work together from the start.
You don't have time to figure out software. You shouldn't have to.
