Most comparison pages are written to push you somewhere. This one gives you the dated facts we could verify from Hosting Ireland's own pages on 14 October 2026, a way to judge any host against them, and a short list of the kinds of alternative worth considering, HostBible among them. We make no claim that any provider is better or worse. Prices and terms change, so check each page again before you buy.
These are the facts we could read and re-check, with the source for each. Anything we could not find is listed in the next section.
The regular, post-promo price of the entry shared plan was not on the pages we read, so we cannot tell you what month two or the first renewal costs. That is exactly the number to ask for before you sign up with anyone. We also did not find an uptime guarantee or a stated process for transferring a .ie domain away. We have not commented on where any host's servers sit or how good its infrastructure is, because a host's own marketing line is not evidence we can check.
A first-month price tells you very little. Work through five questions and write down the answers with the date.
First, what is the price at renewal, and is it ex or inc VAT? Second, what does it cost to leave: is there a term, and is it refundable? Third, who moves your site in, for how much, and does that include email? Fourth, how can you reach support, and when? Fifth, what does the refund policy actually cover?
As listed on 14 October 2026, excluding VAT, on HostBible's web hosting page: entry plan €5.33 a month, middle plan €7.99 a month, top plan €13.33 a month, each shown at the rate for paying three years in advance. Other billing terms sit behind the page's toggles, so check the term you intend to buy.
That is a different basis from Hosting Ireland's monthly and annual figures above, so do not compare the numbers line by line. Compare like with like: same term, same VAT basis, same date.
On the other questions: HostBible offers a 30 day money back guarantee, free website migration with no migration fees, daily backups on the middle and top plans, a stated 99.9% uptime SLA, a free SSL certificate and LiteSpeed servers. It does not sell .ie domains, so keep your domain where it is or use a registrar of your choice. Our guide to registrar versus host explains why that split is common.
Do it in order: check your renewal date and cancellation terms, take a backup, test the new site on a staging copy, switch DNS, then cancel in writing. Our step-by-step guide to moving from Hosting Ireland to HostBible walks through it, including the cPanel backup. If you are weighing a different move first, web hosting cost in 2026 explains what drives renewal pricing.
HostBible's team will move your site, databases and email to a hosting plan and test it on a staging copy while your current site stays live. A 30 day money back guarantee applies.
