Strapi VPS hosting

As Strapi offers a free Community self-hosted plan, Strapi hosting refers to getting that plan and hosting the CMS where you want.

If you choose to host your Strapi application on our VPS services, you will get a pre-installed template, advanced security tools like a built-in firewall, DDoS protection, a dedicated IP, and free automatic weekly backups, and more.

Most importantly, choosing to host Strapi on VPS means more freedom and control over your project, as you will be able to configure the server as you want.

With Hostinger VPS services, you will simply have to select the Ubuntu 22.04 64bit with Strapi during your onboarding. That’s it – we will install the CMS on your server.

Check out our article on the Strapi VPS template for more information.

We recommend having at least 4 GB of RAM, 32 GB of disk space, and 2 CPU cores to run the Strapi CMS smoothly. This makes our KVM 2 plan, starting at US$ 5.99/month, perfect for small-to-medium projects.

Even though Strapi will still work with the KVM 1 plan which comes with 1 CPU core and starts at US$ 4.99/month, we recommend investing for better quality. If you plan to launch big projects like a large eCommerce store, consider opting for higher-tier plans.

Both Strapi and WordPress are content management systems suitable for various projects and content types, including blogs, online stores, or portfolios.

However, Strapi is a headless CMS. This means that you can choose any front-end technology, like React, Vue, or Angular, for your websites or applications. This gives you more flexibility and customization options for your projects.
