Node.js hosting that keeps your app running
Deploy Express APIs, NestJS backends, bots, and dashboards on managed cPanel hosting. Pick your Node version per app, run npm installs from the panel, and let the platform handle SSL, restarts, and backups — no server administration.
Node.js hosting plans and pricing
Every plan runs Node.js through cPanel with free SSL, MySQL, and daily backups. The price you see is the price at checkout.
How Node.js runs on this hosting
The details developers actually check before ordering — version control, process management, databases, and deploys — answered up front.
Setup Node.js App in cPanel
Create an app, point it at your project folder, and cPanel wires up the runtime. No server administration required.
Pick your Node version
Choose the Node.js LTS version per application from the selector, so an old project and a new one can run side by side.
npm installs from the panel
Run npm install against your package.json from the app screen, or upload node_modules with your build.
Apps stay running
The application server (Passenger) starts your app, restarts it after crashes or reboots, and manages worker processes for you.
HTTPS out of the box
Free SSL is issued and renewed automatically, and requests are proxied to your app — no nginx config to maintain.
MySQL + daily backups
Create MySQL databases for your app from cPanel. Files and databases are covered by daily backup routines.
Environment variables
Set API keys, connection strings, and NODE_ENV per application from the panel instead of committing secrets.
Support that knows Node
Local, Nepal-based help with app paths, startup files, domains, SSL, and moving an existing project across.
Built for the apps Nepali teams actually ship
These plans are tuned for request-response Node.js workloads — the projects most businesses, agencies, and students deploy first.
REST APIs
Express, Fastify, or NestJS backends serving mobile apps and websites.
Business dashboards
Admin panels and internal tools with a MySQL database behind them.
Telegram & chat bots
Long-lived webhook bots that need a stable HTTPS endpoint.
Server-rendered sites
Smaller Next.js or template-driven sites that need Node on the server.
Shared Node.js hosting or VPS?
An honest comparison — shared Node hosting covers most projects, and when it doesn’t, a VPS is one upgrade away with migration help included.
| Node.js shared hosting | VPS hosting | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | APIs, Express apps, bots, dashboards | High-traffic apps and custom stacks |
| Node.js version | Choose per app from the cPanel selector | Install any version yourself |
| Process manager | Managed for you (auto restart on crash) | PM2 or systemd under your control |
| Server access | cPanel tools, no root | Full root SSH access |
| Databases | MySQL included | Anything — MongoDB, Redis, Postgres |
| WebSockets & workers | Light use only | Unrestricted |
| Server admin work | None — patched and monitored for you | You maintain the OS |
From repository to live app in four steps
No pipeline configuration to learn — the first deploy usually takes minutes, and support can walk you through it.
Pick a plan & domain
Choose a plan, then register, transfer, or connect an existing domain at checkout.
Upload your project
Push files with File Manager, FTP, or Git — package.json and your startup file included.
git pushCreate the Node app
In cPanel, open Setup Node.js App, select the folder, startup file, and Node version.
app.js · v22 LTSInstall & restart
Run npm install from the panel, add environment variables, and restart. HTTPS is already live.

The technical answers, before you order — no surprises after checkout.
How do I deploy a Node.js app on this hosting?
Upload your project (File Manager, FTP, or Git), open Setup Node.js App in cPanel, point it at the project folder and startup file (for example app.js or server.js), run npm install from the same screen, and restart the app. Your domain then serves the app over HTTPS.
Which Node.js versions are available?
Current LTS releases are available from the cPanel Node.js selector, and the version is set per application — so you can upgrade one project without touching another.
Can I run Express, Fastify, or NestJS?
Yes. Anything that listens for HTTP requests through a standard Node entry point works, including Express, Fastify, NestJS, and Koa apps.
Does my app keep running after I close the browser?
Yes. The application server manages your Node process — it starts the app on demand, restarts it after crashes or server reboots, and you can restart it manually from cPanel after a deploy.
Do I need PM2?
No. On these plans the process management PM2 usually handles — keeping the app alive and restarting it — is done by the hosting platform. If you want PM2-level control (clustering, custom logs, zero-downtime reloads), that is a VPS use case.
Can I use WebSockets or socket.io?
Light WebSocket use can work, but shared Node hosting is optimised for request-response apps. For real-time apps with many persistent connections, choose a VPS where connection limits are yours to set.
Can I use MongoDB?
MySQL is included with every plan. For MongoDB, connect to a hosted cluster such as MongoDB Atlas from your app, or run your own MongoDB on a VPS.
How do I set environment variables?
Each application in Setup Node.js App has its own environment variable list — add keys like NODE_ENV, DATABASE_URL, or API tokens there instead of hard-coding them.
When should I move to a VPS instead?
Move to a VPS when you need root access, a custom Node build, background job queues, heavy WebSocket traffic, MongoDB or Redis on the same machine, or more CPU and RAM than shared plans provide. Migration help is included.
