What this comparison is
WebJi wrote this page. WebJi is not Bluehost or SiteGround, and this is not their support desk. The names are used only to identify the products. Their phone numbers, chat lines and support email addresses are not published here.
Both are hosting companies used by WordPress sites. They do not publish one shared India rate card that we could quote as a single table on 29 October 2026.
Bluehost, on this date
A stable public price was not captured from this company's own page on 29 October 2026. A guessed rupee figure would be worse than a blank, so this page does not print one. On their pricing page, write down the introductory monthly price, the term that price requires, the renewal price, the currency, the tax line, and what is included. That note is the comparison.
SiteGround, on this date
SiteGround's web hosting page was read twice on 29 October 2026. Both reads listed StartUp, GrowBig and GoGeek, and data centres in North America, Europe, Asia and Australia.
The currency was euros in one read and pounds in the other, and the renewal monthly figure was higher than the introductory monthly figure in both. An India visit can show a third currency. Printing £1.99 or €2.99 here would pretend that one visitor's screen is everyone's price. Open the page yourself and write down the renewal in the currency on your screen.
The page we read did not name cPanel. Confirm the panel in your account before you follow a cPanel backup guide.
A fair side-by-side
Put these on one line for each company, from your own browser.
- Currency on the pricing page.
- Intro monthly price and the term required.
- Renewal monthly price.
- Data-centre choices the page actually offers you.
- How you download a copy of the site.
WebJi's shared rates are in INR on the shared hosting page, from ₹300/month before GST. They belong in the comparison only as a third column you can read without a region switch, not as a score for Bluehost or SiteGround.
If you leave either one
Copy files and the database, test on a temporary address, then change DNS. Keep the old account until mail works. The domain registration can stay put. Panel steps differ, so use the export that account actually offers. Neither company's support number is listed on this page.
Rates printed on this website
These figures are WebJi's, printed on webji.in. They are not a price for any other company.
Shared hosting lists L-Basic at ₹300/month (₹3,000 for one year), L-Unlimited at ₹400/month (₹4,000) and L-Developer at ₹700/month (₹7,000), before 18% GST. That page also says renewal rates are printed before you pay. The shape of the price is a monthly rate and a one-year total, not a 36-month or 48-month introductory rate.
Domain registration lists indicative ranges, before 18% GST: .com registration ₹900–1,200/year and renewal ₹1,000–1,400/year; .in registration ₹500–800/year and renewal ₹700–1,000/year. A range is not a cart total. The amount at checkout is the price.
Where another company's renewal figure is lower than ₹300/month, that is what their page showed. Compare that renewal figure with L-Basic, then add tax on both sides. A lower first-term advertisement is a different number from the renewal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which is cheaper, Bluehost or SiteGround?
This page cannot say. On 29 October 2026 Bluehost's price was not captured, and SiteGround's page changed currency between two reads. The cheaper host is the one whose renewal, in the currency you pay, is lower after tax. That has to be read from each cart.
Why not print the SiteGround price I saw in an ad?
Ads and regional pages disagree. Two reads of the same SiteGround URL on the same day produced different currencies. A single number would be true for one region and false for another.
Where does SiteGround say its servers are?
The hosting page named North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. Which of those you can select is on the order screen. Latency to India depends on the location you are actually given, not on the fact that Asia appears in the list.
Is either panel cPanel?
SiteGround's hosting page, in the read we kept, did not name cPanel. Bluehost's panel was not opened. Use the backup tool the account shows you. Do not assume a cPanel full-backup file exists.
What is WebJi's shared price in this comparison?
L-Basic is ₹300/month before 18% GST on this website. It is an INR list rate. It is cheaper than Bluehost or SiteGround only when their renewal, converted and taxed, is higher than that. This page does not claim that it is.
Do I contact SiteGround or Bluehost through WebJi?
No. This site is not their support desk and does not publish their contact details. Account exports and DNS edits happen in the account you already have.
