Editorial policy

Where facts come from

Prices, limits and terms come from primary sources: the host's own pricing page, documentation and terms of service. Each figure is stored with its source link and the date it was checked, and shown with both on the page. We keep a log of every page we fetch.

If a host does not publish a figure, the page says "not stated by host". We do not estimate or fill gaps from third-party roundups.

How AI is used

We use AI to help research, outline and draft pages. A person on the editorial team checks every price, limit and claim against its source before a page is published. A person also reviews the page title, description, structured data and image descriptions. AI is not used to invent authors, reviewers, quotes, ratings or testimonials.

What we say about testing

We only write that we tested or used a host where we did, and we keep dated evidence such as screenshots or receipts. Everything else is described as based on the host's public plan pages, with the date we checked them. We do not publish speed or uptime claims that we have not measured.

Independence

Commissions do not affect grades or rankings. See the affiliate disclosure. We do not sell placement.

Updates and corrections

• Pricing and plan limits are re-checked monthly. Terms, refund and support details are re-checked quarterly.
• Every page shows when it was last checked and keeps an update log.
• To report an error, email info@hostingverdict.co. We correct confirmed errors and note the change in the page's update log.
