Laravel hosting

Laravel hosting — three ways to run it, on one platform

Install Laravel in one click on our shared Linux platform, take a managed Laravel plan with SSH, Git, Composer and scheduled tasks already in place, or take a whole cloud server with root access from a clean operating system or a ready Docker stack. Same platform, same dashboard, same support — and AI Move, free on paid plans, moves your sites between them for you.

What Laravel is

Laravel is a PHP framework for building web applications. It supplies the parts almost every application needs — routing, database access, queues, scheduling, authentication and templating — as one coherent set, so a team writes the behaviour that makes their product different rather than rebuilding the plumbing that does not.

Why teams build on Laravel

Laravel suits applications that outgrow a content management system but do not warrant a bespoke stack: dashboards, portals, SaaS products, internal tools and APIs. Its queue and scheduler mean slow work happens out of the request, its migrations keep a database in step with the code, and its conventions make an unfamiliar codebase legible quickly — which matters more than raw speed on anything a team maintains for years.

What a Laravel deploy actually needs, and where it is

  • The tooling a Laravel project expects is part of the shared platform rather than something you enable: SSH, Git deploys, Composer, scheduled tasks and remote MySQL are there on the Linux rung and on the managed rung alike, on every tier.
  • You set the PHP version and the settings yourself, which is the thing most shared hosting will not let a framework do — and a Laravel application pinned to a PHP version it was not written for is the commonest reason a deploy that worked locally does not work in production.
  • Queue workers and the scheduler are long-running processes, and that is the one shape shared hosting handles worst. On a cloud server the machine is yours with root access and is from a clean operating system or a ready Docker stack, so a worker holding memory is not competing with anybody else's site for it.
  • Backups are automatic on every rung, with the option to keep a month of the file system and two of the databases — so a bad deploy is something you roll back rather than something you rebuild.

What you pay when the first term ends

Cheap hosting is usually cheap once. The industry sells a low first term paid years in advance and then renews at several times the price you signed up at. We do not do that, and here is the arithmetic beside three hosts that do.

HostWhat you pay up front for the advertised priceWhat the price does on renewal
Zinn Digital®Nothing — pay monthly, or pay for a year up front and save. Every plan shows both prices before you buy.Nothing. The price you see is the price you renew at
SiteGround12 months, in advanceMultiplies by 5.3
Hostinger48 months, in advanceMultiplies by 3.6
Bluehost36 months, in advanceMultiplies by 2.5

Read from each host's own pricing page on 2026-09-08. Their prices are theirs and they change; the multiple is the renewal price they publish divided by the price they advertise beside it.

Support is part of hosting, not an upsell. It is the same support on the smallest plan as on the largest, and nothing about it is counted or capped per incident.

Open 24 hours a day

Whatever hour you are working and whatever time zone you are in, the desk is staffed. You are not writing into an inbox that opens in the morning.

Write your ticket in the language you actually think in — we translate it for our team and answer you in yours, with the original always one click away. We sell in all 58.

A person, not a bot

Our assistant answers instantly from the knowledge base, but it never closes a ticket for you. A ticket is picked up and answered by somebody who can act on it.

Questions people ask before they buy

Do I get root access?

On a cloud server, yes — it is your machine and you have root over the whole thing. On the Linux platform and on a managed plan you get SSH, Git and cron rather than root, because the server is shared and we keep it patched. If your deploy needs root, the cloud range is the rung to take.

Is Laravel already installed?

It depends on the rung. On a managed plan, yes — the account is provisioned with the application on it. On a Linux platform plan it is one click from your dashboard whenever you want it. On a cloud server, no, and we would rather say so: you get a clean machine with root, from a clean operating system or a ready Docker stack, and you install PHP, Composer and Laravel the way your application needs them. Choosing a profile records what the machine is for; it does not install software.

Where will it be hosted?

A managed plan runs on our own server fleet, in the data centre you choose — the cities on offer today are listed on this page. A cloud server can be built in eight: Dallas, Los Angeles, Miami and Washington DC in North America; London, Frankfurt and Amsterdam in Europe; and Singapore in Asia. You pick the city when you order.

Can I move up later?

Yes, in every direction. The shared rungs step up as the application grows, and cloud sizes run from one core and 1 GB of memory to forty-eight cores and 128 GB. Moving from a shared plan to a server of your own is a migration we do for you.

Is it managed, or am I on my own?

That is what the three rungs are for. On the Linux platform and on a managed plan we run the server and the platform — updates, caching, SSL, malware scanning and backups are ours; the difference between those two is only whether the application is already installed when you arrive. On a cloud server the machine and the network are ours, daily backups are one switch away, and the deploy is yours, which is what most teams shipping a Laravel application want.

Can I pay yearly?

Yes, on every rung. Every platform plan, every managed plan and every server size is sold monthly or yearly, and each plan shows both prices with any saving worked out for you — so you are never doing the arithmetic yourself. You can start monthly and switch later, and the price you sign up at is the price you renew at.
