Benchmark in progress. We have purchased a shared hosting plan from Ex2 Hosting and it is currently in our testing queue. The final score and full uptime data are published only after 30+ days of monitoring — never an estimate.

Our Verdict

Ex2 Hosting is currently working through our four-stage review pipeline: we buy a plan with our own money, deploy an identical test site, measure TTFB from three continents, and monitor uptime every 60 seconds. This page is live now, but the performance verdict will only be published once that window completes.

What we can assess today is the offer itself: plans start at CA$4.99/mo, the nearest server region to our test locations is CA 🇨🇦, and the service is aimed at first-time site owners, blogs, portfolios, and small business websites. We will update this review with measured data as soon as testing wraps up.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Very low entry price — plans start at CA$4.99/mo
  • Beginner-friendly setup with one-click installers
  • No server administration required
  • Free SSL and email mailboxes are typically included

Cons

  • Renewal rates are typically far higher than the intro price
  • Resources are shared with neighbouring accounts
  • Limited control over server configuration
  • Upsells during checkout are common

Pricing

Plans start at CA$4.99/mo. As with most hosts, the advertised rate is an introductory price — budget for higher renewals, and always confirm current pricing on Ex2 Hosting's official website before buying. Compare it against similarly priced options in our hosting directory.

Who Ex2 Hosting Is For

Choose Ex2 Hosting if you are first-time site owners, blogs, portfolios, and small business websites. Skip it if you are high-traffic sites or anyone needing root access to the server — our directory has a dedicated category filter for every hosting type.

How We Tested Ex2 Hosting

Every provider goes through the same four-stage process before it earns a score: we buy a plan with our own money, deploy an identical test site, measure TTFB from three continents, and monitor uptime every 60 seconds for 30+ days. Scores weight speed 40%, uptime 30%, support quality 20%, and value for money 10%. Providers cannot pay for placement or a higher score — see our editorial policy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Ex2 Hosting good for beginners?

Mostly yes. Its shared hosting plans are aimed at first-time site owners, blogs, portfolios, and small business websites. Complete beginners should still expect a short learning curve — and anyone who needs high-traffic sites should look at a different category in our directory.

What was Ex2 Hosting’s measured uptime?

Our benchmark is still running. We never publish an uptime figure until at least 30 days of monitoring is complete — check back once the score badge in the directory changes from “Testing” to a number.

What is Ex2 Hosting’s NgeHost score?

It is currently queued in our testing pipeline. The final score is published only after a full 30-day benchmark, so you will never see an estimate here.

Prices are introductory rates subject to change — always verify on the provider's official website. Benchmark data reflects our own 30-day monitoring.
