What people say about InterServer
We read what InterServer's customers and review sites say, and sum it up in our own words: what people like, what they don't, and who it suits. Our score is the customer score, worked out from public ratings. We don't test hosts ourselves.
Customer score
Not enough customer ratings yet
We show a score once we have ratings from at least 2 platforms and 100 reviews.
We don't earn commission from InterServer at the moment, but we do from some hosts. Commission never changes this score or verdict: the score uses published reviews only, and no host can pay to change it. How we make money · How we review
Our verdict
Our summary of InterServer's reviews is on its way
An editor checks every summary against its sources before we publish it.
Review sites we read
Every review of InterServer from the sites in our source register that our team has checked. Most review sites earn commission from the hosts they review, as we do; the funding column says how each is paid for.

“Affiliate-funded” means the site earns commission from hosts it reviews. “Published test data” means it publishes the measurements behind its verdict. Scores and ranks are shown as each site displays them; pros and cons are summarised in our own words. How we choose sources

What customers say
We haven't recorded any customer ratings for InterServer yet.
- Find InterServer on SmartCustomer (formerly Sitejabber) (opens in a new tab)
- Find InterServer on Trustpilot (opens in a new tab)
We don't check whether these reviews come from real customers. Each platform runs its own checks, and some let hosts invite reviews, which can push ratings up. Customer ratings never change the experts' score, and commission never changes either.

InterServer pricing: every plan, renewal and 3-year cost
The intro price is what you pay at first. The renewal price is what you pay after that. The true 3-year cost adds them up, so you can see which plan really costs less.
