Hi, I’m Ayoub, the person behind Host Test Lab. I have been working in affiliate marketing for 7 years, building and running content websites on WordPress. I run my own sites on Namecheap shared hosting, where one plan holds many domains and I add each new site in cPanel with the one-click WordPress installer.
Over those years I learned that choosing the wrong web host costs real money, through slow pages, downtime and renewal prices that jump after the first term. Host Test Lab is where I share what I find. It is written for people who build affiliate sites, niche sites and small online stores, and who want a host that will not hold their site back.
How the articles are made
Prices and features come from each provider’s own US pricing pages, and every article states the date they were checked. Plan names match what the provider shows on that date. Intro prices and renewal prices are kept apart, and cost comparisons show the full multi-year total. Speed and uptime figures come from independent tests, and I name the source, the method and the test period for each one. When two tests disagree, I show both and do not pick a winner.
