Who it’s for

App hosting without running a server

  • Developers

    Deploy APIs, dashboards and side projects without configuring a server or a process manager.

  • Students and bootcamps

    Put your Django, Flask or Express project online on your own domain, at a student-friendly price.

  • Small businesses

    Run booking tools, internal apps and APIs next to your website and email, on one account.

  • Agencies

    Host client apps and websites side by side, each on its own domain or subdomain.

How it works

Deploy your app in four steps

  1. Upload your code

    Upload your project with the cPanel file manager, FTP, or SSH on every plan except Starter.

  2. Create the application

    In cPanel, open “Setup Node.js App” or “Setup Python App”, choose the version, the app folder and the startup file.

  3. Install packages

    Install your dependencies from package.json or requirements.txt with one click, and add environment variables.

  4. Go live

    Point your domain or a subdomain at the app. Free SSL is already on, so it runs over HTTPS.

How Node.js and Python hosting works on cPanel

Our servers run CloudLinux with its Node.js and Python selectors. Each app gets its own isolated environment with the version you choose, its own packages and its own environment variables, and the web server starts it for you when visitors arrive.

You manage everything from cPanel: create the app, restart it after an update, change the version or add variables. Your app lives next to your website, email and MySQL databases on the same account.

PriceFrom R 327 a yearFrom a monthly VPS price

Start on cPanel hosting. When your app needs always-on background processes or software of its own, move it to a VPS.

Updating your app

Upload the new code

Replace the changed files with the file manager, FTP or SSH (every plan except Starter).

Reinstall packages if needed

Run the install again from the app’s page when package.json or requirements.txt changes.

Restart the app

One click in cPanel restarts it with the new code.

Roll back if something breaks

Daily backups let you restore the previous version of your files and database.

Everything else you need is included

Your app shares the account with everything a project needs: MySQL databases with phpMyAdmin, email accounts on your domain, subdomains for staging and APIs, free SSL on every domain, cron jobs for scheduled tasks and daily backups.

You can host a WordPress website, a Node.js API and a Python dashboard side by side on the same plan, each on its own domain or subdomain.

  • This has to be one of the best (reponsive) service I have experienced in my life. The useless host i was using couldn't fix the issues I had in 48 hours. I switched to Hostnali and it was fixed in less than 2 hours. You won't regret using this service.

  • I've been with Hostnali for quite some time now, and I can't express enough how satisfied I am with their services. From the moment I signed up, they've consistently exceeded my expectations. Their hosting plans are pocket friendly , robust and reliable, ensuring my websites are always up and running smoothly. I highly recommend Hostnali to anyone in need of reliable web hosting services. They've been a reliable partner for my online presence, and I couldn't be happier with their service. Five stars all the way!
