Why you should choose WP Bolt if you’re looking for a Kinsta alternative
Both Kinsta and WP Bolt offer Managed WordPress Hosting services. However, Kinsta uses an older-style model of web hosting, where customers share their servers with other customers, similar to Bluehost and GoDaddy.
Kinsta only use a single provider (Google Cloud) for all of their servers, whereas WP Bolt offers customers the choice of 4 of the leading cloud providers (DigitalOcean, UpCloud, Vultr and Linode), and provides each customer with their own Virtual Private Server (VPS) in their chosen data center.
No Artificial Limits on Visitors
WP Bolt has no artificial limits on the number of visitors. On the other hand, Kinsta’s pricing is based on the number of visitors that your site receives and this can easily result in overages or requests to upgrade to larger plans when you otherwise wouldn’t need to.
No Limits on Number of Sites
Kinsta’s plans not only limit the number of visitors that you get, but they also limit the number of sites that you can deploy on their platform. Their starter plan at $35 per month only allows you to host 1 site, their Pro plan at $70 only allows you to host 2 sites, and you’d need to be on their Business 2 Plan to host 10 WordPress sites.
WP Bolt allows you to host up to 20 sites per server on all of our plans, with the only limitation being the resources of the server. If you want to host a larger number of low-traffic sites for your clients, WP Bolt is a great fit.
No Restrictions on PHP Workers
Kinsta limits the number of PHP Workers (the component of your server that is responsible for processing WordPress page loads for your visitors) to just 2 on their first two plans. You need to be paying over $100 per month to get 4 PHP workers, and over $300 to get 6.
We Give You More Space
The entry-level plan from Kinsta only has 10GB of disk space. You might quickly find yourself struggling with that limit if you have a site with a lot of images, video or other media (eg podcast sites, membership sites, WooCommerce stores). Our smallest plan has 25Gb of disk space, more than double what Kinsta offers.
