FEATURES
Simplified, Hassle-Free Hosting for WordPress Websites
xCloud makes managing hosting for WordPress sites fast and simple. You can set up and scale in minutes while staying focused on what matters.
Go with Fully Managed Or Self Managed
Let xCloud run a cloud server for you, or connect your own at DigitalOcean, Vultr, AWS, Google Cloud, Hetzner, Linode or Hostinger. You get the same dashboard either way.
One-Click WordPress Site Creation
Every site runs on a modern hosting stack with the latest WordPress Core, strong security, and advanced features.
Optimized Stack
Pick Nginx or OpenLiteSpeed, MySQL or MariaDB, and any PHP version from 7.4 to 8.5 for each site. The stack is set up for WordPress, so pages load fast under busy traffic.
Scheduled Backups
Back up each site every 12 hours, daily, weekly or monthly, to the server or to storage like Cloudflare R2, Backblaze or Google Drive. Choose how many days to keep, or click Backup Now.
Fast Pages & Built-In Security
Full-page caching and Redis object cache keep pages quick. Cloudflare DNS and SSL can be set up as you create the site, and a built-in firewall and vulnerability scan guard it.
Staging Environments
Add a staging copy of any WordPress site on a paid plan. Test updates and design changes there, pull fresh data from the live site, then push your changes to production.
Updates Manager For Effortless WordPress Sites Management
Activate, update, or roll back plugins and themes, or update the ones you select in one go.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
What Should Cloud Hosting for WordPress Include?
Any cloud server can run WordPress. The difference is how much of the work around it you do yourself. Here is what a WordPress site needs, and how xCloud handles it on our server or yours.
| What a WordPress site needs | How xCloud handles it |
|---|---|
| A cloud server of your own, so other customers' sites never run on it. | A managed cloud server in the region you pick, or your own server at DigitalOcean, Vultr, AWS, Google Cloud, Hetzner, Linode or Hostinger. |
| A web server, database and PHP version set up for WordPress. | Nginx or OpenLiteSpeed, MySQL or MariaDB, and PHP 7.4 to 8.5, chosen per site. |
| Caching so pages stay fast when traffic grows. | Full-page caching and Redis object cache, turned on from the site's dashboard. |
| Backups you can restore when something breaks. | Scheduled backups to the server or remote storage, Backup Now at any time, and restore to a new site. |
| A safe place to test updates before visitors see them. | A staging copy you can push to production, on paid plans. |
| Security that keeps each site's files to itself. | Free SSL, the built-in firewall for Nginx and OpenLiteSpeed, a vulnerability scan, and each site running as its own system user, so one site can't read another site's files. |

Everything above is the server handled for you. If you would rather keep your own VPS at DigitalOcean, Vultr, Hetzner, AWS or anywhere else, xCloud can run it through the same panel for a flat fee per server - the difference is whose machine it is, and who gets paged when it needs attention.

Hear what people are saying about us
See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.
xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!
Brian GeovannyI've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.
Kevin PinedaI'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting
Leo KooHow Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud
Ed EllinghamxCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru ButucelxCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar AhmedTrust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul SinghSo far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo VillaCame from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson ElI've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony LewisI came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowellI like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose
David McCanHow Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently
Kevin HeinrichsI had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan SpinozaDear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.
Rahil MaknojiaCame from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.
Karl FanegaHow Advanced Web Strategies Saved Over $2,000 & Recovered 56 Hours per Month Managing 70+ Client Websites
Gary MoodyxCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.
Jorge de los Reyes MartínezI use Server Avatar and xCloud and I'll sooner use xCloud than Server Avatar personally.
Jay PaganoHow Newman Web Solutions Ensured Perfect Uptime and Seamless Scaling For 120+ WordPress Sites with xCloud
Lori NewmanI too have moved over to xCloud. It's pretty sweet. One click n8n and uptime Kuma apps

Frequently Asked Questions
Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have
What is cloud hosting for WordPress?
Cloud hosting for WordPress runs your site on a cloud server instead of a shared machine. Your sites get their own cloud server with its own memory and disk, so other customers' sites never run on it. For CPU that is never shared, choose a Dedicated CPU plan. On xCloud the server is managed for you: we set it up for WordPress, keep it patched and answer support around the clock.
Is cloud hosting good for WordPress?
Yes, for most sites that have outgrown shared hosting. Other customers' sites don't run on your server, and you can move to a bigger server when traffic grows. On xCloud you also get caching, free SSL, backups and staging set up from one dashboard.
How much does cloud hosting for WordPress cost on xCloud?
Managed cloud servers start at $5 a month, with the server, the panel and support on one bill. You can host as many WordPress sites as the server can run. If you would rather use your own server, connect it instead: your first server and ten sites are free.
Can I use my own cloud server for WordPress?
Yes. Connect a server you already rent at DigitalOcean, Vultr, AWS, Google Cloud, Hetzner, Linode or Hostinger, or any other Ubuntu server by IP. xCloud then installs the WordPress stack and manages your sites on it, and you keep paying your provider for the server.
What is managed hosting for WordPress?
Managed hosting for WordPress means the host looks after the technical side of running WordPress for you. On xCloud you get one-click installs, one-click updates for core, plugins and themes, scheduled backups, a built-in firewall, free SSL and 24/7 expert support.
What is the difference between Managed Hosting and Shared Hosting?
Shared hosting puts your website on a server with many other people's sites. If one of them gets a spike in traffic, your site can slow down or go offline.
With managed cloud hosting on xCloud, the server's memory and disk are yours, and the server is set up and looked after for you. Each site runs as its own system user, so one site can't read another site's files.
Does xCloud offer free WordPress migration?
Yes. Ask our team for a free migration and we move your WordPress sites for you. You can also move a site yourself with the xCloud Migration plugin, or move every site from a cPanel or other Ubuntu server in one go. Your live site stays up while it is copied.
Can I host multiple WordPress websites on xCloud?
Yes. On paid plans there is no limit on the number of sites per server, only on what the server can run. It suits agencies, developers and businesses that manage more than one site, and teams let you give each person access to only the sites they need.
What makes xCloud secure for WordPress?
Every site gets free SSL and the built-in firewall for Nginx and OpenLiteSpeed, and each site runs as its own system user, so one site can't read another site's files. xCloud also scans your plugins and themes for known vulnerabilities. For more, the Site Security PRO add-on adds protection powered by Patchstack.
Does xCloud provide staging environments?
Yes, on paid plans. Add a staging copy of a WordPress site, test updates, plugins and design changes there, then push them to production. You can also pull fresh files and data from the live site into staging.
Which cloud providers can I choose with xCloud?
Managed servers run on Vultr or xCloud's own server pool, and you pick the region. To bring your own server, connect DigitalOcean, Vultr, AWS (EC2 or Lightsail), Google Cloud, Hetzner, Linode or Hostinger, or any other provider by server IP.
What kind of support does xCloud provide?
You get 24/7 expert WordPress support. Our team helps with setup, plugin issues, migration and troubleshooting. You can also use the docs, video tutorials and the xCloud community group.
How reliable is xCloud hosting for WordPress?
Your site runs on its own cloud server, not a shared one, with full-page caching, Redis object cache and an optional Cloudflare setup to keep it fast under heavy traffic. The dashboard shows CPU, memory and disk use so you can spot a problem early, and scheduled backups let you restore quickly.
Can developers use Git with xCloud?
Yes. Deploy a WordPress site from a Git repository by connecting GitHub or pasting any repository URL with a deploy key. Tick “Auto-deploy on push (webhook)” and every push to your branch goes live.
