Ghost
Combine filters →Ghost is Node.js, and that single fact excludes most of the hosting built for CMS work. It needs a process kept alive, a database, and somewhere for uploaded images — closer to hosting an application than publishing a site. Providers here are the ones that run long-lived Node processes, plus Ghost’s own hosted service. A PHP shared host will not run it however many installers it offers.

Do I need special hosting for Ghost?
In most cases, no. Ghost runs on any host that supports its runtime. This list is shorter than that: it holds the providers that document Ghost themselves, with an installer, a guide or a maintained image. Other hosts may run it without mentioning it.
What should I check before hosting Ghost?
The runtime versions on offer, how deploys work, whether there is a shell for command-line tools, where cron jobs run, and which databases come managed. Check backups too, and how to move away later.
Who is the best Ghost hosting provider?
We can't tell from here. A host that suits a small agency site can be wrong for an API with users in Asia and Europe. The list is alphabetical and nobody paid for a place on it. The guide covers what to compare.
