Review: A Laravel-Friendly Hosting Provider

Not every host is a good fit for Laravel. Before buying a plan, check the three things below. This article was written in partnership with Example Hosting.

PHP version and terminal access

The latest Laravel needs PHP 8.3. SSH access makes it easy to run Composer and artisan commands right on the server.

Server location

A server close to your visitors means shorter load times. For an audience in Southeast Asia, look for a data center in Indonesia or Singapore.

Support when things go wrong

Try contacting technical support before you buy. The speed and quality of the reply show what you will get later.
