Our review
A2 Hosting is the developer's shared hosting pick. SSH access, multiple language support, and LiteSpeed Turbo servers. If you need more than basic WordPress, A2 is worth the slightly higher price.
Pros
- Turbo servers (LiteSpeed) 20x faster than basic plans
- Full SSH access on all plans
- Choice of Python, Perl, Node.js, Ruby — not just PHP
- Anytime money-back guarantee (prorated)
- Strong developer tools
Cons
- Turbo plans more expensive ($4.99/mo intro vs $1.99 base)
- Backups cost extra ($1.50/mo)
- Renewal price jump is steep (4-6x)
- Smaller brand vs Bluehost / Hostinger
