Deploy ZNC in one click installation.
Always-on IRC bouncer that keeps you connected to IRC networks 24/7 and replays missed messages.
What you can build with ZNC
ZNC is an advanced IRC bouncer (also called a BNC) that maintains a persistent connection to IRC networks on your behalf. It logs messages while you are offline, replays them when you reconnect, and lets you connect from multiple IRC clients to the same identity simultaneously. After more than 15 years of development, ZNC remains the de facto standard for self-hosted IRC bouncers.
Self-hosting ZNC on a VPS gives you a stable, always-online IRC presence with full backlog history, modular plugins for notifications, logging, and identification, plus a web admin interface for adding networks and configuring channels without touching config files.
Key features of ZNC
Always-on IRC presence
Stays connected to every network you join so you do not miss messages or lose nick registrations during desktop downtime.
Multi-client replay
Connect from desktop, mobile, and web clients simultaneously — ZNC replays missed messages and keeps each client in sync.
Modular plugin system
Built-in modules for logging, NickServ authentication, fail2ban, channel cycling, push notifications, and dozens more.
Web admin interface
Manage users, networks, channels, and modules from a browser — no need to edit configs manually or use IRC bot commands.
Multi-user support
Per-user accounts with isolated networks and module settings let households or teams share one ZNC instance across distinct IRC identities.

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.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
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. Hostinger Agent 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.
