HostMetro Summary Analysis by HRank
We started monitoring the provider in August 2018, yet, HostMetro failed to rank higher than 4.4 HRank in 2018 and thus appeared in the 119th position.
In 2019 – 4.8 HRank and 156th position.
The HostMetro’s uptime was neither stable nor perfect in 2018. The same was repeated in 2019.
Its response time was also rather slow: it mostly stayed in the range of 800ms – 900ms, and only got a bit faster by the end of the year (~600ms).
HostMetro is losing the number of domains.
