Pros and cons
Pros
- Intro fees of BRL 10.09 on a 36 term sit below the site median of €2.99.
- A single account covers shared hosting, WordPress hosting and VPS, so hosting, builder and store plans stay with the same provider.
- Plans bundle free ssl, backups and cdn, and data centres sit in Brazil for local visitors.
- Support runs on chat, email and help centre, and refunds are available for 30.
Cons
- Free WHOIS privacy: no, so the .com at BRL 1 does not include private registration.
- Online store sales take a transaction fee of 1.5%, while the median across the site is 0%.
- Phone support is not among the listed channels, which are chat, email and help centre.
Who it suits
- Built for beginners and small business who want hosting, domains and a builder in a single account.
- Starters running a single site: the entry plan allows 1 site on the P plan.
- Shops selling online who want the e-commerce plan at BRL 59 with a store builder.
Who should look elsewhere
- Render, for teams deploying an app rather than a website: it starts at $0 on app hosting.
- Hosting.cl, for a Chilean audience, where HostGator Brasil keeps data centres in Brazil.
- Afrihost, for buyers in South Africa who want a provider closer to home at ZAR 84.

How much is a .com domain?+

How many sites can a plan host?+
