What you can build with WinterCMS
WinterCMS is a free, open-source content management system built on the Laravel PHP framework. Originally forked from OctoberCMS, it combines a developer-friendly architecture with an intuitive backend that makes managing content straightforward for non-technical users. The CMS ships with a block-based editor, a flexible plugin ecosystem, and a themeable front-end that lets teams build and maintain sophisticated websites without sacrificing code quality.
Self-hosting WinterCMS on your own VPS gives you complete control over your data, eliminates per-site or per-user fees, and lets you customize every layer of the stack. This template pairs WinterCMS with a dedicated MySQL 8 database for reliable, production-ready persistence from day one.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.

Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Kodee and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
