Step 3: Pick the billing term

The lowest monthly price shown by Hostinger usually needs the longest term (48 months for hosting, 24 months for VPS). You pay the full amount upfront. Longer terms also delay the higher renewal price.

Step 4: Claim your free domain

Yearly hosting plans include a free domain for the first year (Single includes a free domain). You can claim it during checkout or later from hPanel.

Step 5: Check the cart and pay

Before paying, look at the order summary: plan, term, discount lines and 18% GST. Pay with UPI, RuPay, Visa, Mastercard or other listed methods. Use a new account – referral discounts are for new customers.

Step 6: Set up your website

In hPanel, choose WordPress or AI Builder. Hostinger installs WordPress in one click and adds a free SSL certificate. The official Hostinger tutorials cover every step in detail.
