Which webhosting between ExtraVM and Hostmantis?
ExtraVM and Hostmantis both provide higher resources limit on their shared webhosting. Which webhosting plan do you think is better between these two in terms of speed, uptime, etc?
ExtraVM ($14 annually 5GB NVMe SSD plan) - https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/2969764/#Comment_2969764
Hostmantis ($5 annually 15 GB SSD Starter plan) - https://www.hostmantis.com/shared-hosting.html

Have a feeling ExtraVM will be a better performer
extravm from personal experience
BuyVM - get a slice TM
Hostmantis
Only good experiences so far :P
Where have you found this price?
This is the price for the entry play with 2GB SSD.
Buyshared if nvme is not a must.

Every few months there's an 80% off coupon.
We're NVME in Vegas baby

If saving money if your a concern then go with HostMantis. According to the network page they use the same DC/network, so uptime outside of hardware/sw issues would be the same. Just different hardware.
If you want NVMe, I'm sure you'll be happy with my promo plan though.
They're both good, but I have like 99.8% uptime on Hostmantis and paid like $20 for 3 years so I can't complain.
Hard to f#@k up shared hosting.
What advantage has NVMe over SSD? Does this impact Google page speed rankings?
Also Hostmantis provides free Sitelock Security. Is it a better protection?
NVMe is a faster version of SSD.
Better protection than what? Sitelock is just a website malware scanner that gives you a image to put on your site to advertise their product, from my understanding. Maybe some people like it, but I think it's just a false sense of security.
(I don't mean to sound rude but I literally can't word it any different)
For most people it probably makes no noticeable difference. For MySQL it is great. But again, for most people it won't be noticed unless you're running a heavy site. NVMe doesn't use SATA interface.
Tl;dr: Ignore Sitelock and either choose the cheap & good way (Hostmantis) or the not so cheap but also good way (ExtraVM). Either way you can't go wrong. If you need more hand-holding perhaps ExtraVM is the better choice for you as Hostmantis mentioned they don't really do hand-holding. Though I don't know about @MikeA in that regard either.
NVMe or SSD will not make much of a difference at this rate. With a Dedi or VPS maybe it does but in shared hosting I doubt that there's any (really) noticeable difference. Of course when SSD is throttled to 1 MB/s that's slow but Hostmantis offers like 20+ MB/s. Enough for your website to load as fast as you want it to.
Not if your name is AlphaRacks lol
