A free speed test widget for your site: what is HIZTESTI Custom?
Almost every internet service provider's support page contains the same sentence: "To measure your speed, go to this site." At the end of that sentence the visitor leaves your site, runs the measurement on another brand's page, and there is no longer any way to tell whether the result has anything to do with your infrastructure.
HIZTESTI Custom removes that step: you embed the speed test in your own page, in your own colours, logo and layout. You can start on the free plan: add the speed test widget to your site for free, up to 250 tests a month.
What it gives you
- Branded measurement — the test is presented in your visual language and the visitor stays on your site.
- Easy embedding — a single
<script>tag (or an iframe) adds it to any page: CMS, landing page, support portal. - The same measurement engine — the widget's engine is identical to the consumer HIZTESTI.COM: multi-connection and adaptive. Being embedded does not simplify the measurement.
- Hotlink protection — the widget only runs on the domains you specify, so nobody can copy the code onto another site and burn through your quota.
Two target modes
The widget decides which servers run the test through one of two modes. The difference is not only technical — it also determines billing:
| Mode | How it works | Quota |
|---|---|---|
| Shared network (default) | The test runs on the nearest server in the HIZTESTI Servers network. You host nothing. | Subject to a test quota — it uses our bandwidth |
| My own servers (every plan) | The test runs on your own approved servers in the network. | Counts against your quota; unmetered with a server slot |
The logic is simple: the quota limits tests that use our bandwidth. You can use your own servers in a widget on every plan, and the tests count against your quota. With a server slot (a per-server add-on on Business, set in your contract on Enterprise) they run without quota.
Running on your own servers without quota requires a server slot; the free plan cannot buy one. For the server side, see our sponsor programme post.
Who uses it
Internet service providers — offering measurement to subscribers on your own site spares the support call its "please test over there first" detour. Companies and campuses — organisations showing their own network's performance to staff or students. Hosting and technology firms — teams adding measurement to a customer support flow.
How long it takes to start
In shared-network mode you host nothing, so the widget goes live in minutes: you create a widget in the portal, pick colours and a logo, and paste the generated embed code into your page.
There is a free plan: one widget, 250 tests a month (3,000 a year). Higher quotas, password protection and multiple domains come with the paid plans; you can use your own servers on every plan, and they run unmetered with a server slot.
