Hosting providers compared
Choose by workload, not advertising
Availability, region, payment methods, pricing and limits vary. We do not claim these providers are universally best or that their prices are live.
Cloud VPS
Hetzner Cloud: check instance specifications, traffic, region and backup fees. Official site.
DigitalOcean: review Droplets, data transfer, managed databases and backups. Official site.
Vultr: compare server classes, regions and bandwidth. Official site.
Hostinger: compare website hosting and VPS plans, especially promotional versus renewal prices. Official site.
Static sites and lightweight APIs
Cloudflare Pages and GitHub Pages are worth evaluating for static projects. Check current free-tier terms and whether you need server-side code.
