You or the host?
When the status page is green, the outage is almost always on the site, the domain or the cache.
If another site hosted in the same place responds, the outage does not come from the host but from your site, your domain name or your cache.
“This site can’t be reached” or a timeout point to the server or the DNS; a 500 error or a blank page point to the site itself (PHP, plugin, database).
An expired domain or DNS records changed the day before give the same symptoms as an outage. The host’s customer area or the registrar shows the expiry date.

statuspage.hostinger.com tracks shared hosting, cloud, cPanel, email and thirteen data centres, including the European ones. Incidents are written in English and time-stamped in universal time; this page shows them in Paris time.

Hostinger declares each emergency intervention on an isolated server (“Emergency Server fr-1231 Maintenance”, a few minutes) as an incident with no impact. This page sets them aside to keep only the incidents that affect a whole service; if your server is mentioned, it is on the official page that you will see it.

On 27 October 2026, Hostinger was tracking an incident on its analytics (“Analytics Temporarily Unavailable”) and another on its web page recovery tools; the hosting itself was not declared down.

The “Hostinger hPanel Backend” component regularly appears with degraded performance. That slows down the administration of the hosting, not the visitors’ sites.
Source: Hostinger, monitored componentsOfficial support: the article “What to do if you cannot access your website at Hostinger” lists the checks on the customer side. Hostinger support is by chat from hPanel, 24 hours a day; there is no phone support.
During the outage
In order, without breaking anything.
Open your site from another network (4G rather than your router) and in private browsing. If it works elsewhere, the problem is local: cache, router DNS, firewall.
An incident announced by the host gets fixed without you: no need to touch the site. Note the start time for your own communication.
A word on your Google listing, your social networks or your voicemail avoids the phone calls. Give the return time announced by the host rather than a promise.
One isolated outage is no reason to change host. Three outages in a quarter, or a support team that stays silent, are: a migration takes a week to prepare.
Frequently asked questions
Read the status above: an incident on “Hostinger Shared Hosting”, “Cloud Hosting” or a data centre concerns you; an incident on hPanel, analytics or AI does not. If nothing is announced, test another site hosted at Hostinger; if it responds, the cause is on your site or your domain. Hostinger’s help article goes through the checks in order.
Nothing: these interventions last a few minutes and are carried out by Hostinger. If your server (its name is in hPanel) is mentioned, wait for the end announced on the official page. These interventions are not counted here as general outages, so as not to show an incident permanently.
Hostinger rolled out the PHP 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35 fixes on 21 October 2026. A site left on an older version, or an incompatible plugin, may show a blank page since then. The blog guide “changing the PHP version at Hostinger” explains the setting in hPanel.
Hostinger advertises a 99.9% uptime guarantee in its terms; compensation is requested from support by chat with the incident references. Nothing is automatic: keep the start and end time shown on the status page.
