Methodology
Every score on this site comes from the same repeatable process. If we can't reproduce a number, we don't publish it.
What we measure
TTFB (Time to First Byte)
Time from request to first byte from the origin server, measured from 12 global probe locations. We report the global median of 3 runs.
Load time & LCP
Full document load and Largest Contentful Paint, measured with headless Chromium at 4G throttling. We exclude CDN-only assets to isolate origin performance.
Uptime
HTTP(S) checks every 60 seconds over 30 and 90 day windows. We count any 5xx or timeout over 30 seconds as downtime.
Latency by region
Round-trip ICMP/TCP handshake latency from test nodes in India (Mumbai/Delhi), USA (NYC/LA), UK (London), plus 6 other regions.
How the editorial score is weighted
Data freshness
Benchmark figures refresh monthly; pricing and plan details are verified weekly against the provider's public pages. Prices shown are the provider's own advertised intro rates with renewal rates called out explicitly where they differ. We never accept payment to change a score, and affiliate links never influence rankings - see our affiliate disclosure.
