The 75 day money back guarantee applies on billing periods of 75 days or more, while shorter monthly service is covered by a 30 day guarantee under the service terms.

The shared hosting platform runs on cPanel with CloudLinux and LiteSpeed Enterprise. It includes Softaculous one-click installation, SitePad website builder, file manager, PHP selector, MariaDB, Perl, Ruby on Rails, SMTP, POP3, IMAP, aliases, forwarders, webmail, spam filtering, DKIM, SPF, email routing, bandwidth statistics, error logs, raw logs, and many PHP extensions. AutoSSL installs free SSL certificates for hosted domains, backups are available several times per week through JetBackup, and Cloudflare and LSCache tools are available from cPanel. The infrastructure is owned and operated by HostRush, located in Dallas, Texas, protected by 10 Gbps DDoS mitigation, and backed by a 99.9% uptime guarantee.

📄 Editorial Review

HostRush is a small U.S.-based web hosting provider with roots in Buffalo, New York, and current business contact details in Jamestown, NY. The company started in 2012, with Adnan Faridi connected to the business from its early development. Its profile is not that of a large corporate hosting group; it is closer to a founder-operated provider focused on affordable hosting, owned server hardware, practical support, and Dallas-based infrastructure.

The main services are Shared Web Hosting, WordPress Hosting, VPS Hosting, and Dedicated Servers. HostRush also has a legacy connection with Installicious, an auto-installer for cPanel, and the client area still includes an Installicious license category. The current hosting focus, however, is clearly around cPanel shared hosting, WordPress hosting, KVM VPS, and dedicated servers.

Shared hosting is classic Linux hosting built around cPanel, CloudLinux, LiteSpeed Enterprise, SSD storage, MariaDB, free SSL, SitePad website builder, Softaculous one-click installer, email hosting, DNS tools, JetBackup, selectable PHP, LSCache, and migration help. The main plans are Intro, Performance, and Professional, covering from smaller websites and blogs up to larger shared-hosting accounts with more websites, storage, and resources.

The WordPress hosting line follows the same practical approach but is tuned for WordPress users. Plans include WordPress setup, WP-CLI, LSCache for WordPress, LiteSpeed, CloudLinux, free SSL, WordPress transfer assistance, backups, cPanel, and MariaDB. The plans are WP Starter, WP Intermediate, and WP Advanced, making the service suitable for personal WordPress websites, small business sites, and moderate multi-site WordPress use.

VPS hosting is split between newer KVM SSD/NVMe VPS plans and older OpenVZ legacy VPS plans. KVM is the stronger option because it provides full virtualization, root access, custom ISO support, VNC access, kernel control, IPv6 support, SolusVM management, and dedicated resources. The OpenVZ line looks more like legacy inventory, while KVM is the better fit for serious VPS use.

Dedicated servers are the most infrastructure-focused part of HostRush. Their dedicated catalog is built mostly around dual Xeon E5 hardware with 64 GB RAM, SSD or HDD storage, /29 IPv4 allocation, IPv6 availability on selected plans, 10 Gbps DDoS protection, dedicated VLANs, IPMI/KVM access, and self-managed operation. This makes HostRush more attractive for customers who want affordable bare metal in the central United States rather than a large cloud platform.

The company website is functional but old-fashioned in design. Some front-end pages still carry older update dates, while the client-area system is active and uses a 2026 footer. Some store products are out of stock, and the knowledgebase is very thin. This gives HostRush the image of a smaller technical provider rather than a polished enterprise hosting brand.

The client-area language selector supports many languages, including Arabic, Azerbaijani, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Persian, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Macedonian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, and Ukrainian. Billing currency is USD.
