Plans and pricing
MAXKO Hosting's web hosting starts at €50 for an introductory term of 12 months. The figure belongs to that first term, so it works as an entry point rather than a standing rate, and it is worth reading the plan terms to see what the amount looks like once the introductory period ends.
Where it sits among rivals
On this site's web hosting list, MAXKO Hosting ranks 278 out of 282 brands on entry price, and its money-back period places 270 out of 275. Both sit low in a long list, so buyers shopping on cost have cheaper options above it.

Frequently asked questions
What does MAXKO Hosting cost to get started?+
Web hosting starts at €50 on an introductory term of 12 months. Treat that as the price of the first term rather than a standing rate, and read the plan terms to see what the amount looks like once the introductory period ends.
How long is the money-back period?+
The money-back period is 3 days, which is short for hosting. Plenty of providers in this category offer a longer window, so if you are unsure about the fit, a longer refund period gives you more room to try the service before you commit.
Which hosting products are on offer?+
The range covers web hosting, VPS, dedicated servers and colocation (web hosting, vps and dedicated servers). Colocation sits alongside them for sites that run their own hardware, and the shared plans are aimed at small business.
Where are the data centres?+
Data centres are listed in Zagreb in Croatia, Nyiregyhaza in Hungary, Sofia in Bulgaria, Belgrade in Serbia, Meppel in the Netherlands and Johannesburg in South Africa (Zagreb, Croatia, Nyiregyhaza, Hungary and Sofia, Bulgaria). The company is Croatian, and the legal entity behind it is MAXKO d.o.o.
What support is available?+
Support runs on email, chat and help centre. A help centre and a community space sit alongside email and chat, so routine questions can be self-served, but no phone channel appears in that list, which matters if you prefer to talk an issue through.
Is there an uptime guarantee?+
Uptime is guaranteed at 99.999%, published by the provider for its hosting services. The listed plan features are free SSL and email (free ssl and email), which cover the basics a small site needs from the start.
Who is this provider built for?+
MAXKO Hosting positions its hosting for small business, and the plan set suits sites that need hosting, email and free SSL together. Projects with heavier requirements have VPS, dedicated servers and colocation to move up to (web hosting, vps and dedicated servers).
How does the entry price compare?+
On this site's list, MAXKO Hosting sits at 278 out of 282 brands on entry price, so cheaper options sit above it. Afrihost lists ZAR 84 and Host Chile CLP 1,491.67, both lower entries to weigh against it.
