Frequently asked questions

Rarely — most shared hosts don't let you keep a long-lived Node process. By default Node.js goes on a VPS with root access.
Install the LTS Node version (via nvm), run the app under PM2 for autostart and restarts, and configure Nginx as a reverse proxy on ports 80/443.
A low price isn't always bad. For a blog or landing page, a budget server (1–2 GB RAM, NVMe) is plenty. The key is to check uptime and support availability, not just price.
Low cost comes from the location (cheaper data centre rent), denser client packing or the absence of managed services. That's fine for small projects, but verify the virtualization type.
European data centres combine solid infrastructure, GDPR compliance and low latency to a Ukrainian audience (25–40 ms). It's the optimal balance of price, speed and stability.
Germany (Frankfurt) is Europe's largest internet hub with the best infrastructure. The Netherlands offers permissive law and proximity to UA. Poland is the cheapest option with low latency.

Хороший хост, пользуюсь уже более года. Квалифицированная поддержка и есть мой любимый способ оплаты через монобанк, принимают карты. Претензий к стабильности работы у меня нет

about GMhost·20 August 2019
Bad

Не знаю як він працює (можливо все задовільно), але відсутність на головній сторінці української мови, відштовхнула. Хоча хостинг позиціонує себе як український:(

Good

Классный сервис, с хорошей командой, ребята sim-networks точно знают толк, в своей работе. Арендуем у них несколько выделенных серверов, функционируют стабильно.
