Our Verdict
We bought a shared hosting plan from Infomaniak with our own money and put it through the same 30-day benchmark we run on every provider in our directory. Over the full test window it recorded 99.95% measured uptime, with an average TTFB of 170 ms across our test nodes in the US, Europe, and Asia. The nearest server region to our test locations is CH 🇨🇭.
That performance earns Infomaniak a solid NgeHost score of 8.5/10, placing it #77 out of 300 providers in our overall rankings. Shared hosting plans start at CHF 5.75/mo, and during our test the day-to-day experience matched what the numbers suggest — the service is aimed at first-time site owners, blogs, portfolios, and small business websites.

How We Tested Infomaniak
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.
