Detailed Review of Hostino Web Host
Test method — Score 9.8/10 on our 2026 criteria: performance (load times for a Moroccan audience), uptime, AR/FR/EN support, MAD billing, and .ma / ANRT handling. Entry offer observed from 199 MAD/year (Eco promo); Starty around 399 MAD/year and Business around 999 MAD/year depending on the period. Method details: About.
Hostino (Hostino SARL AU) is a Moroccan web host and .ma registrar headquartered at Technopark Tangier, with presence in Rabat and Casablanca. It is an ANRT-accredited .ma registrar (public ref. SVA “.ma” 119/2022) — a seriousness criterion few local hosts combine with a full shared-hosting stack.
Positioning is clear: SSD NVMe infrastructure, servers in Morocco (local latency + data sovereignty) plus Spain, the Netherlands and the USA, 99.9% uptime guarantee, JetBackup, and alignment with the national Digital Morocco 2030 strategy.
In practice, our test highlights the combo of transparent MAD pricing + free .ma in year 1 + cPanel + human 24/7 support in Arabic, French and English. Hostino reports 5,000+ hosted sites and ~4.9/5 satisfaction — consistent with the ticket response times we saw.
Bottom line: for a Moroccan SME, agency or e-commerce merchant that wants credible local hosting, an ANRT registrar and fast activation, Hostino remains #1 in our 2026 ranking.

Summary of our Hostino® Review
The entry Eco pack (often 199 MAD/year on promo vs 299) remains the most accessible podium option for real NVMe hosting with a free .ma, SSL and cPanel — without falling into empty low-cost territory.
The strong differentiator vs ADK Media or Clouder: ANRT registrar accreditation + local Morocco infrastructure for latency and Law 09-08 compliance needs.
Support (phone, email, ticket, WhatsApp) is more responsive than the average Moroccan host we tested.

Control panel
Hostino uses cPanel — the Moroccan market standard — to manage files, email, MySQL, DNS, SSL and JetBackup.
The UI is familiar for freelancers and agencies; activation after payment is nearly instant in our tests.
.ma domain names
As an ANRT-accredited registrar, Hostino registers, renews and transfers .ma domains under Moroccan rules (holder verification, ServerHold, etc.).
Observed public pricing: .ma registration around 150 MAD/year (renewal often higher). With a hosting pack, the .ma is free the first year — one of the best local packages.
For the ANRT journey (documents, pendingCreate, disputes), see our .ma domain guide.
SSL certificates
Every pack includes free unlimited Let’s Encrypt SSL, activated automatically (HTTPS). Enough for most brochure sites, blogs and shops.
No need to buy a paid SSL to start: older review notes about “expensive paid SSL” no longer match the current offer.
Email accounts
Hostino offers professional messaging (@your-domain.ma) with anti-spam, calendar and contacts — useful for SMEs that want a credible image without Google Workspace.
Mailbox count depends on the pack (1 on Eco, 5 on Starty, 10 on Business).
Pricing observed (August 2026)
Eco: 199 MAD/year on promo (299 MAD/year regular) — 10 GB NVMe, SSL, free .ma year 1, cPanel.
Starty: around 399 MAD/year on promo (499 MAD/year regular).
Business: around 999 MAD/year on promo (1,199 MAD/year regular).
Billed in MAD with local payment options; fast activation after validation. Always check the TTC price shown at checkout.
Hostino Review Conclusion
Hostino delivers on what matters in Morocco: ANRT registrar, NVMe hosting, free .ma, free SSL, multilingual local support and 99.9% uptime.
Our load-time measurements stay among the best in the panel for a Moroccan audience, and the customer journey (order → activation → cPanel) is smooth.
That is why it keeps the 9.8/10 score and 1st place in our 2026 comparison — ahead of ADK Media and Clouder.
