48X faster than traditional hosting *
Limits with third-party methods 3
* Independent evidence from K6 shows that ihost’s WordPress platform is up to 48 times faster than other web hosts.
1. In a 100-site plan with 100GB of storage on Hostinger, each site gets 1GB. However, 400,000 inodes may not be sufficient for 100 websites, as inodes represent files and directories, and this limit can be quickly reached.
But ihost has no storage limits.
2. However, Hostinger’s 400,000 inodes may not suffice for 100 websites, as inodes represent files and directories, and this limit can be quickly reached.
But ihost has no inode limits.
3. Hostinger uses LSCWP Cache plugin for 40% and Object Cache for 3x boosts.
But ihost achieves 48X faster performance natively, without third-party solutions. Additionally, ihost features its own StackCache® plugin, the world’s fastest cache plugin integrated directly with the server.
