Dhruva Cloud

Everything included, on every plan

SSL, the CDN and DDoS protection are not upsells here — they are on the $1.99 Lite plan too, which is free for its first 2 months. Paid plans add PHP, MySQL and room to grow, starting at $2.99/month.

Your domain, handled for you

The part that puts most people off self-hosting is DNS. Dhruva Cloud does it rather than writing you instructions.

Bring any domain

GoDaddy, Namecheap, BigRock, anywhere. You change the nameservers at your registrar; Dhruva Cloud creates the Cloudflare zone, the records and the routing.

Automatic HTTPS

A Universal SSL certificate is issued and renewed through Cloudflare on every plan, Lite included. Nothing to install, no renewal to miss.

Subdomains

Add blog.yoursite.com or shop.yoursite.com from the dashboard. Each one is routed and certificated like the main site.

Fast and protected by default

Things other hosts charge extra for, or leave you to configure.

Cloudflare CDN

Every request is answered from the nearest of Cloudflare's 300+ edge locations instead of travelling to the origin.

DDoS protection

Anycast routing with L3, L4 and L7 mitigation sits in front of every site. No add-on, no separate plan.

No open ports

The origin is reached over a Cloudflare tunnel, so there is no public IP to scan or attack directly.

NVMe storage

Solid-state storage throughout — the disk is not what slows your site down.

Run real applications

Not just static files.

PHP and MySQL

WordPress, Laravel or your own code. PHP and at least one MySQL database are on every paid plan.

phpMyAdmin

Manage your databases in the browser — import a dump, run a query, export a backup.

Node.js apps

Supported on every paid plan for projects that need it.

Dedicated resources on Plus

Plus plans give you guaranteed RAM and vCPU rather than a share of a pool.

A control panel you already know how to use

Not cPanel, but it covers the same ground — and it is the part people actually spend their time in.

File Manager

Upload, edit, rename, download, and select several files at once to copy, move, compress or delete.

Zip and unzip in place

Compress a folder, or extract an archive and choose whether to fill in only what is missing or replace what is there. It tells you exactly what it added and what it kept.

Built-in editor

Open any text file — HTML, CSS, JS, PHP, .htaccess — and save it without downloading a copy first.

One-click backup

Download your whole site as a ZIP whenever you want. Your files are yours.

Web terminal

A real shell in the browser for the jobs a file manager cannot do.

Logs

Access and error logs per site, so a 500 is something you can diagnose instead of guess at.

What Dhruva Cloud does not do

Email hosting. We host websites, not mailboxes. If your domain currently receives email, pointing its nameservers at Cloudflare will stop that unless the MX and SPF records are recreated — write them down before you switch and we will help you put them back.

Instant DNS. The hosting is ready in minutes, but a nameserver change at your registrar takes its own time to propagate. Nobody can make that part faster.

PHP or MySQL on the Lite plan. Lite is for static sites — HTML, CSS and JavaScript. It still gets your own domain, automatic SSL and the CDN, but WordPress and anything needing a database starts at $2.99/month.
