Why KapsuleHost

The price you sign up at
is the price you keep.

Most hosts publish a cheap first year and a dearer renewal, both on the same page. Ours is one number for as long as your subscription runs, and clause 7.5 of our Terms is what makes that binding.

DreamHost Web Hosting Launch, yearly, read from dreamhost.com/hosting/shared/ on 2026-08-18, at their own published introductory and renewal prices. Ours is the live catalogue price and it holds at renewal. Prices move: check theirs before you rely on this.

Clause 7.5 locks your price. Theirs is the renewal they publish themselves.

What we set out to fix

Three things we set out to fix.

Each one is something people told us about the host they were leaving.

The renewal price goes up

What we see

On 18 August 2026 DreamHost published Web Hosting Launch at US$2.89 a month for the first year and US$10.99 a month after that. Hostinger published Premium at US$2.99 a month if you pay four years up front, and US$10.99 a month after that. Both print the renewal beside the headline, so you can check it yourself.

What we do

The price you sign up at is the price you pay for as long as your subscription runs. It is clause 7.5 of our Terms, so it is a contract rather than a slogan.

Support answers from a script

What we see

At a large host your first reply comes from a scripted first tier. It repeats your question back to you, asks you to clear your cache, and closes the ticket. That is why a five minute problem takes three days.

What we do

Kora replies the moment you ask, and your ticket goes straight to one of our own engineers. Every answer comes from somebody who can change the thing you are asking about.

The bill changes when you get busy

What we see

Some platforms charge for how much your site gets used, so the plan price is only the start of the invoice. A busy month costs more than a quiet one and you find out at the end of it.

What we do

A busy month can cost you money here and it can never take your site off the internet. On our hosting plans the plan price is the whole bill, in your busiest month and your quietest one, and the day you reach a published limit we email you and ask whether you want to move up. On Orbit, builds and traffic past what the plan includes are billed at rates published in your own currency, under a spending ceiling you set yourself, so the most you can be billed is a number you chose.

Checked against their own published pages

Four commitments neither one makes at all

This is not a bigger number than theirs. On each of these four points, Hostinger's and DreamHost's own published security and legal pages say nothing at all: no smaller commitment, no vaguer version, nothing.

Neither Hostinger nor DreamHost makes any network-level isolation claim at all

What their own pages say

The usual standard for shared hosting, including theirs, is isolation at the process and file-system level, one layer above the kernel. Their own published security material makes no claim about the network layer specifically.

What ours says

Ours goes one layer deeper: kernel-level firewall rules, tied to each site's own system account, block your site's code from reaching the shared database port or another customer's application-server port over our internal network. It is also something you can observe yourself once you are a customer: a site process that attempts either connection is refused. This is a summary; the clause below has the binding wording.

Read the binding clause

Neither Hostinger nor DreamHost publishes a patch-time commitment of any kind

What their own pages say

Read their own security pages yourself: neither tells you how long a critical vulnerability is allowed to stay open on your server. No number, no ceiling, nothing to hold them to.

What ours says

Ours is a number: security updates apply automatically, usually within a day of release, and for the ones that need manual work, such as a reboot, our committed ceiling is 7 days from release. This is a summary; the clause below has the binding wording.

Read the binding clause

Neither Hostinger nor DreamHost makes any public claim about who can push code to production

What their own pages say

Nothing in their published material says who approves a release, or how many checks it has to pass, if any, before customers see it.

What ours says

Ours does: every release passes over 190 automated checks, and the only credential permitted to update our production branch belongs to the release pipeline itself, not to any person, including the person who owns the company. This is a summary; the clause below has the binding wording.

Read the binding clause

Checked against Hostinger's and DreamHost's own published security and legal pages: the first three, 13 September 2026; the fourth, disaster-recovery time, 14 September 2026. Neither publishes any of the four commitments above, in any form. If either publishes a matching commitment, or if we change ours, this comparison changes, and we will update it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Where is this written down?
Clause 7.5 locks your fee for as long as your subscription keeps renewing. Clause 7.4 gives you thirty days notice before any fee changes. Clause 13.5 is your right to take everything with you, and we hold it for thirty days after you go. Clause 4.7 prints the fair use limits as actual numbers. The whole document is at /legal/terms.
What happens to my price if you are bought?
Your price is safe either way. Clause 7.5 survives a change of owner, so the rate you signed up at stays yours whoever owns the company. We are building this to keep, and if it ever did change hands we would write to you first and move you to another host, free, if you wanted to go.
How much warning do I get before the Terms change?
Thirty days. Clause 20.1 requires an email and a notice in KPanel a full thirty days before any material change. Clause 20.3 then lets you end the affected service before it takes effect and refunds the unused part of anything you have already paid. Corrections to spelling and formatting count as tidying, and go through as they are.
Who actually reads my ticket?
One of our own engineers, and in the early days that is often the founder. Kora answers immediately and a person replies within 4 business hours. Email jesse@kapsulehost.com if you would rather skip the queue.
How do I hold you to this?
Email jesse@kapsulehost.com with what happened. Anything we get wrong that breaks one of the commitments on this page is published at /transparency, with what happened and what we changed.

That is the pitch. Now go and try it.

Web Hosting Start runs free for its first thirty days. Clause 1 then refunds your first payment in full within thirty days, and clause 7.5 locks your price for as long as your subscription runs.
