Are partners with a higher tier preferred in the comparison?
By default we sort by membership tier and price. You can re-sort by price, test score or reviews at any time. A membership does not change our test verdict or our users' reviews.

Who gets listed on hosttest?
Providers register themselves and have to meet minimum requirements – from a registered business and transparent pricing to a guaranteed uptime figure. Every offer has to be confirmed as current by the provider every 120 days, otherwise it disappears. So you do not see the entire market, but a vetted selection.
