Kinsta

Premium managed WordPress host with Cloudflare integration

Overview

Kinsta was founded in 2013; Mark Gavalda is its founder and chairman. The company is fully distributed and reports more than 230,000 customers in 128 countries, more than 65,000 new sites launched in 2025, 30 data centres and 300 CDN locations.[7] W3Techs credits Kinsta with 0.3% of all websites in November 2026.[1]

Kinsta’s pricing, in US dollars excluding tax, is organised by site count and either bandwidth or visits. In November 2026 single-site plans started at US$35 per month or US$315 billed annually (for example, Launch: one WordPress install, 75,000 estimated monthly visits, 15 GB storage); multi-site plans ran from WP 2 to WP 40; Agency plans were listed at US$255 per month after a discounted first three months; and Enterprise started at US$500 per month.[8] All plans include automatic daily backups with 14-day retention, unlimited free migrations, a CDN allowance and free staging environments.[8]

Beyond WordPress, Kinsta offers application and database hosting and static-site hosting, letting teams consolidate several workloads in one dashboard. Its main limitations are price per site, the need to choose between bandwidth-capped and visit-capped plan variants, and the lack of email hosting. The pricing page reviewed did not mention a money-back guarantee.
