Installed In Clicks

Off the shelf, already installed and configured for you

Getting an application going ought not to start with a fight over database credentials and config files. Pick the software inside Softaculous, name a domain, and seconds later it runs, already configured and waiting on your first login. Would you sooner assemble it by hand? SFTP, SSH and phpMyAdmin sit right there waiting.

  • Softaculous carries 240+ scripts
  • Database and admin login written for you
  • Supported apps keep themselves updated
  • Doing it by hand is always allowed

The Full Catalog

240+ applications, grouped by the thing you are building

The famous names are only the front row. Softaculous covers whole categories of ready-to-install PHP software — here is how the aisles are laid out.

Softaculous library grouped into CMS, shop and community categories on screen

Publishing and blogs

One person keeping a journal, or a dozen editors filing into the same newsroom: WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, Ghost and Concrete CMS will carry either.

Shops and checkouts

One click on WooCommerce, Magento, PrestaShop or OpenCart hands you a catalogue, a cart and a working checkout.

Forums and communities

Stand a community up on phpBB, MyBB or Flarum, then park the shared knowledge somewhere sensible using a wiki such as MediaWiki.

Teaching and courses

Lessons, quizzes and training programmes run on learning platforms of the Moodle and Chamilo sort.

Business and CRM tools

SuiteCRM and similar tools keep projects and customers on record; invoicing, helpdesk and task-board scripts sit beside them.

Frameworks and blank starts

Build something of your own on Laravel or Symfony, or start from plain PHP and assemble it exactly as you like.

Why It Runs Well Here

What an application wants before it behaves itself

Speed and reliability features sitting behind NVMe application hosting

Installed in a couple of clicks

Softaculous holds more than 240 applications a click or two away. Manual setup disappears, and you land straight into the business of building the thing.

Quick, and stays quick

NVMe-class drives, plus caching set up sensibly, keep dynamic PHP software responsive while the page count and the traffic both climb.

The PHP release is yours to set

Every site carries its own PHP version. Extensions switch on or off from the panel, matching whatever the software in question says it wants.

Guarded and kept current

Free SSL, malware scanning on a schedule, and platform updates nobody has to ask for keep every app you park here well protected.

A backup every day

We take backups daily, which turns a bad update, a broken theme or an unlucky plugin into a restore instead of a lost weekend.

Real people, any hour

Installs, migrations and the occasional application quirk go to engineers you can actually talk to, at any hour, all year round.

For Developers

Composer, Git and a real terminal, with no ticket needed

Ship a Laravel API, or nurse an ageing PHP application along: either way the tools do not change, and they are waiting for you already. Set the PHP release on a per-site basis. Pull dependencies through Composer, push releases through Git, and do everything else over SSH. Nobody needs to raise a ticket just to have a setting changed.

  • A PHP release chosen per site
  • Composer and Git from day one
  • SSH access and cron jobs
  • MySQL, remote access and phpMyAdmin

Three Steps

Three steps, from idea to live site

Step by step guide to installing and launching a PHP application
  1. 1

    Pick the software

    Pick the thing you intend to launch. Could be WordPress. Could be Magento, a build on Laravel, or plain PHP you knocked together yourself.

  2. 2

    Install it

    Softaculous gets it running in seconds. Would you rather do it by hand? Push your own code up over SFTP and Git instead.

  3. 3

    Go live, then grow

    Attach the domain, turn on free SSL, then step up a plan once traffic or the catalogue outgrows whatever you began with.

Kept Safe

Scanned, backed up and watched through the night

No application is safer than the ground beneath it. Our side of that means keeping the server stack current, running malware scans as ordinary routine, and issuing free certificates that renew on their own. Add a backup taken every single day and a broken plugin, or one mistyped command, costs you a restore and not a thing more.

  • Free SSL on every app, reissued for you
  • Malware scanning and platform updates
  • Daily backups you can roll back to
  • A watched network with DDoS filtering

FAQ

Questions people ask about app hosting

Which applications will run on these plans?

Nearly the lot, in truth. Softaculous alone carries over 240 well-known scripts, and they span the categories most people need: content platforms such as WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, Ghost and Concrete CMS; shops built on WooCommerce, Magento, PrestaShop or OpenCart; PHP frameworks like Laravel and Symfony; community software including phpBB, MyBB and MediaWiki; learning platforms such as Moodle. Code you wrote yourself counts too. Whatever the installer does not list can still go on by hand over SSH or SFTP. Sitting underneath is an ordinary, fully equipped PHP and MySQL stack, offering a choice of releases and the usual extensions, which explains why most software written for shared hosting simply works here. One thing to do first: read the application's own requirements, meaning the PHP version and the extensions it expects, because both are yours to set from the panel. Unsure about a particular app? Describe it and we will tell you plainly whether it fits.

Do I have to write any code to get an app installed?

For the popular platforms, no. Softaculous takes you through it step by step: pick the application, say which domain and which folder it belongs in, set an admin username and a password. From there the installer builds the database, writes the configuration file and hands back a login that works. That is how the bulk of WordPress, WooCommerce, Joomla and Magento installs begin here, and plenty of them will go on updating themselves afterwards. Prefer your hands on the controls? Maybe you are pushing your own code, deploying a framework project, or installing something Softaculous has never heard of. SFTP, SSH, Git and phpMyAdmin all come with the account, so building it by hand is supported just as well. Either road, support is awake at any hour of the night if an install goes sideways.

Can one account carry several applications?

Yes, so long as your plan permits more than one website. A single account can hold several different applications at once. A WordPress blog, a Laravel dashboard and a Joomla site, say, each with its own domain, its own database and its own configuration, kept properly apart from the others. Since the PHP release is picked per site, one application can run on the newest build while another stays on whatever version its plugins were written against, and neither one bothers the other. Each application also gets a document root of its own, which keeps the files tidy and separate even though they all share one quick NVMe server. That suits people pulling a handful of projects together, or keeping a staging copy alongside the live site, or minding a small set of sites on behalf of other people. Running a larger roster? Look at the website allowance printed on each plan and take one with enough room in it.

What PHP releases and extensions do I get?

Several current PHP 8.x releases, picked per site, which means different applications on one account can sit on different versions and nobody has to upgrade everything on the same day. Extensions come and go as the software demands: GD and Imagick for images, mbstring and intl for handling text, cURL, PDO and the MySQL drivers, then OPcache, zip, bcmath and the rest. All of that is done from the control panel. Matching whatever Magento, Laravel or some older application insists on therefore takes two minutes rather than a support ticket. The same panel holds the php.ini values that busy software cares about: memory_limit, max_execution_time and the upload caps, so a store importing a large product feed, or a CMS swallowing big media files, has the room it needs. Change a release or an extension and it takes effect almost at once, which means tuning for a new application barely interrupts your afternoon.

Will you move my existing application over?

Yes, at no charge, whichever platform you are on. Order first, then open a ticket carrying your current host's details, and the whole move lands with our team: the files, the database, and the configuration that ties the two together. We stand the application up on our servers and check it loads and behaves itself before anything at all changes for your visitors, which means trouble shows up before launch rather than after it. Once it all checks out, we help you repoint the domain. Most transfers finish inside a day, so the interruption stays small. The same holds for a WordPress site, a WooCommerce or Magento store, a Laravel build or a custom PHP application. Got something unusual in there? A particular cron job, a specific extension, a third-party service wired in. Say so in the ticket and we will see that it comes across and carries on working.

Does every application need a separate plan of its own?

Every major platform gets a page of its own, written around the way that software actually behaves: the PHP release and extensions it favours, how much resource a busy install tends to demand, the tools you will reach for day to day. Beneath all of them, though, the plans stand on one foundation. Quick NVMe storage, LiteSpeed-class caching, free SSL that reissues itself, a daily backup, and people on support round the clock. Every tier, no exceptions. So what you are choosing is how many sites you have and how much room they need, rather than which product carries them, and moving up later never means building anything a second time. Easiest route: find the card for your application further up this page, read the notes underneath it, then take the tier that fits your traffic and your catalogue. Running a mixture of things? Any multi-site plan will carry the lot, and we will gladly help you land on the right one.

Nobody should have to read an installation guide to put a forum online. Choose the application, choose the domain, press the button, and it is running. Hosting Seller puts the same stock on every shelf: NVMe storage, LiteSpeed caching, our London datacentre, and no quiet throttling of the cheaper tiers.

Aimed at builders who want software running inside a minute. You pay for hosting and you get hosting — free SSL, a free migration, daily backups and engineers reachable whenever you need one.

240+ applications, one click each

Softaculous sits inside the panel with WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Magento, phpBB, Nextcloud, Moodle and a couple of hundred others. It creates the database, sets the permissions, installs the software, keeps it updated on a schedule if you want, and clones an install to a staging address before you start experimenting.

Speed here comes out of the stack rather than out of a plugin: NVMe arrays keep reads short, LiteSpeed answers over HTTP/2, and caching happens at the server before your application is asked to do any work at all.

What installing costs you

The oldest trick in hosting is a cheap first year followed by a quiet increase. Hosting Seller prices the other way: the figure you sign up at is the figure that renews, and anything promotional says so on the page before you pay. Every hosting plan carries a 30-day money-back guarantee, so trying us out costs you an afternoon at worst.

The installer is part of every plan, including the $2.42 tier. There is no charge per application and no premium tier that unlocks the useful half of the catalogue.

How the one-click installs work

Applications install onto NVMe storage behind LiteSpeed, with a daily backup taken from the moment they exist. PHP version is set per site, so an ageing application and a modern one can share an account peacefully.

Support is staffed every hour by people who administer these servers, and first replies usually land inside 15 minutes. There is no tier where you get handed to a bot instead.

  • Softaculous with 240+ applications
  • Automatic updates and one-click cloning
  • DDoS filtering at the network edge
  • Patching handled by our own engineers

Still Asking

Other questions that keep coming up

Do one-click installs stay updated?

They can. Softaculous applies minor updates automatically, or notifies you and waits if you would rather test first. Either way a daily backup already exists before an update runs, so rolling back is a couple of clicks rather than a support ticket.

Is there a wait after I order?

Checkout provisions the account automatically — minutes rather than days. If there is an existing app to bring across, our migration team usually finishes inside 24 hours and times the switch so nothing goes dark.

Does the renewal price differ from the sign-up price?

It renews at the price you joined on. Where a first-term promotion applies, its renewal figure is printed next to it before you order, so there is nothing to discover later.

What if one-click app hosting is not the right fit?

There is a 30-day money-back guarantee on the plan. Ask inside the month and you get your money back: no exit interview, and nobody transferring you to a team whose job is talking you out of it.
