📜 Plan description

📄 Editorial Review

Hoststar is a long-established European hosting provider with roots in Switzerland and a history dating back to 1996. The company was founded by Claude Hofer and later became part of Miss Group in 2022, while still operating as an independent hosting brand for the Austrian and Swiss markets. The Austrian branch uses EUR pricing, German and English website versions, and a local Austrian contact address in Irdning.

Their product range is broad enough for private users, small businesses, agencies and ecommerce projects. Hoststar covers Linux Shared Hosting, Windows Hosting, WordPress Hosting with Extendify, Domains, Reseller Hosting, vServer / VPS, Managed Server, WooCommerce Hosting, Magento Hosting, website builder, cloud storage, email hosting, SSL certificates, VPN, SEO tools, migration services, monitoring, statistics, backup services and security tools such as SecureWeb, ID-Hero and Hoststar Safe.

The main Linux hosting plans are StarEntry, StarBiz and StarPlus. They include SSD or NVMe storage, unlimited traffic, unlimited databases, unlimited domains, free Let’s Encrypt SSL, SFTP / Web FTP, SSH, custom PHP versions, MySQL / phpMyAdmin, monitoring, statistics and the in-house My Panel administration interface. StarPlus is the strongest shared-hosting package, with NVMe storage and a 10 Gbit/s connection, while StarEntry and StarBiz are better suited to standard websites, company pages, blogs and smaller CMS projects.

The Windows Hosting line is relevant for customers who need ASP.NET, .NET, MSSQL databases, ODBC, PHP on Windows and Plesk administration. The WordPress Extendify plans make WordPress easier to launch through AI-assisted setup, ready-made layouts, sample content, images and mobile-optimized templates. Ecommerce users can also choose WooCommerce, Magento or Hoststar’s Designer-based shop features.

For agencies and web professionals, Reseller Hosting includes SSD storage, white-label customer panels, Plesk reseller tools, support for many customer accounts and server-location options in Switzerland, Germany and Austria. Their vServer plans are unmanaged VPS-style services with root access, SSD storage, IPv4 / IPv6, snapshots, rescue mode and fast deployment in Germany. More demanding projects can move toward Managed Server, where Hoststar handles server operation, updates, firewall configuration and managed infrastructure tasks.

Overall, Hoststar is strongest for customers who want a European hosting provider with a long operating history, clear pricing, familiar support channels, a strong customer panel and enough services to grow from a simple website to reseller or server-based hosting.
