Overview

What is Tophost?

Tophost is the undisputed leader of the 'Ultra-Low Cost' segment in Italy, famous for maintaining the lowest market prices for nearly two decades. Operating under the Seeweb infrastructure umbrella, they offer a simplified, no-frills product that guarantees essential reliability without advanced features.

Tophost's model relies on extreme automation and high volume; they offer a limited selection of plans (Topname, Topweb, Topweb Plus) that cover the basics of LAMP hosting. Ideally suited for students, personal resumes, and static microsites, Tophost provides the most accessible entry point to the Italian web.

Coefficient Applied

This hosting provider's website did not return full HTML content due to bot protection. HTML size was measured as 57KB (under 100KB). Since reliable "Time to 1MB" data could not be obtained, a +130ms coefficient was applied to maintain ranking fairness.

Coefficient Calculation Formula
penalty = (100 - 57) × 2 = +130ms
