LittleLink Server Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Deploy LittleLink Server hosting and run a self-hosted link-in-bio page on your own domain, with your name, bio, avatar and buttons set from environment variables. xCloud starts the pinned container, which has no database, no volume and no login, and serves it over HTTPS in about thirty seconds. To change anything you edit an environment value and redeploy; there is no admin screen.

What is LittleLink Server?

LittleLink-Server is a lightweight, self-hosted link page, released under the MIT licence, for publishing a profile, avatar, social links, custom buttons, metadata and analytics from environment variables. Upstream builds it with Next.js, React and TypeScript, inspired by LittleLink, and evaluates configuration at request time so changes need a restart rather than a rebuild. A self-hosted LittleLink Server is an alternative to a hosted link-in-bio service such as Linktree.

On xCloud the template runs the upstream ghcr.io/timothystewart6/littlelink-server image as one stateless container. Upstream publishes only a latest tag, so the image is pinned by digest and this page names no version. There is no database, login, admin UI or volume: the install form sets your name, bio, avatar and theme, and buttons are added by editing environment variables.

From Sign-Up to a Live Link Page In Just 3 Easy Steps

A self-hosted link page normally means a container, a domain and a certificate before the first button appears. This is the same result without the setup.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick LittleLink Server from the OneClick catalog. Select a domain, then enter your display name, bio and avatar URL.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
We run the pinned image on your domain over HTTPS. No database or password is created, and the page is usually live in about 30 seconds.
Step 03
Add Your Buttons
Open Environment, uncomment a button such as GITHUB, then choose Save and Redeploy. The new button appears once the redeploy finishes.

Everything LittleLink Does, On Your Own Server

LittleLink Server runs here as a single container that serves a public profile page on infrastructure you control.

Public Profile Page
Show your name, bio and avatar on a public, read-only page on your own domain, with no login screen for visitors.
Social Buttons Included
Add GitHub, Instagram, YouTube and other buttons by setting a variable, then redeploy to publish the change.
Dark Or Light Theme
Pick Dark or Light at install time. Change the THEME variable later if you want the other look, and set Dark exactly.
Nothing To Back Up On Disk
No database runs and nothing is stored on disk, so copying the Environment values is the whole backup.
Search Indexing Is Opt-In
Pages are noindex by default. Set OG_URL and META_INDEX_STATUS=all to let search engines index the page and publish a sitemap.
Survives Restarts And Redeploys
Profile content lives in the site's Environment settings, so it was still shown after a container restart during QA.

Everything You Need To Run Your Your Link Page, Your Domain

xCloud runs the container and the HTTPS route. You keep control of the profile content and the domain it sits on.

What You Can Do With LittleLink Server

Share one link everywhere
Put a single page with your name, bio and buttons in every profile and signature.
Run a link page without a database
Keep the whole page in environment values, with nothing to patch or back up.
Use your own domain
Serve the page over HTTPS under your brand rather than a third-party address.
Track visits with your analytics
Add an analytics provider through environment variables if you want to measure traffic.

LittleLink Server vs Alternatives

Linktree: If you use a hosted link-in-bio service such as Linktree, LittleLink Server is the self-hosted alternative, with your page on your own domain and no account system.
LinkStack: LinkStack has its own xCloud page and adds user registration, themes and an admin panel. LittleLink Server is the stateless, single-profile option.
Homer: Homer has its own xCloud page and is a dashboard of service links. LittleLink Server is a public profile page for people.
Social app bio links: A single link field in a social app is limited to one address. LittleLink Server publishes a page of buttons you control.

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 Geovanny

I'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 Pineda

I'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

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud

Ed Ellingham

xCloud 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 Butucel

xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.

Waqar Ahmed

Trust 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 Singh

So 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 Villa

Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.

Gerson El

I'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 Lewis

I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.

Jared McDowell

I 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

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently

Kevin Heinrichs

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.

Dan Spinoza

Dear 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 Maknojia

Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

xCloud 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Can you self-host LittleLink Server with Docker?

Yes. For LittleLink Server Docker hosting, the template runs the upstream ghcr.io/timothystewart6/littlelink-server image, pinned by digest because upstream publishes only a latest tag. It is a single stateless Node.js container on port 3000, bound to localhost and published over HTTPS by xCloud's proxy.

Is LittleLink Server free and open source?

LittleLink-Server is open source under the MIT licence, so the page has no licence fee. xCloud's fee is the dedicated Cloud VPS and the deployment. There is nothing else to pay for, since the app needs no database, and any analytics provider you add is billed separately.

How much RAM does LittleLink Server need?

The manifest asks for 128 MB of RAM, one CPU core and 1 GB of disk, because the process is stateless. The 6 GB plan sold here is vastly more than needed, so this page suits sharing a server with other tools you run.

Does LittleLink Server have a login?

No. There is no database, login or admin interface; the page is a public profile and everything comes from environment variables. To change it you edit those values in the environment editor and redeploy. Editing only in a browser has no effect, since there is no settings screen.

How do I add buttons to LittleLink Server?

Edit the matching environment variables for GitHub, Instagram, YouTube or custom links, then Save and Redeploy. Upstream reads configuration at request time, but the container must be recreated for the process to receive new values. Upstream also supports analytics providers through the same variables.

How do I back up LittleLink Server?

There is nothing to back up on disk, because the process is stateless and no volume exists. Copy the environment file contents if you want to recreate the same profile on another install, and store that copy safely, as it holds your page configuration.

Backups in xCloud

How do I upgrade LittleLink Server?

The image is pinned to a digest of latest, so a catalog change reaches new installs only. Capture your environment values first, read the upstream notes, then adopt a newer template version. Existing installs stay on the snapshot they were created with.

Will search engines index my LittleLink Server page?

Not by default: the page is set to noindex and its sitemap returns 404. To allow indexing, set OG_URL to your public HTTPS origin and META_INDEX_STATUS to all in the environment editor, then Save and Redeploy so /sitemap.xml can be published.

Can I run LittleLink Server in the cloud on xCloud?

Yes. LittleLink Server cloud use gives the page a dedicated Cloud VPS with your domain and certificate, ready in about thirty seconds. A server rented elsewhere can be enrolled as self-managed instead, running the same template.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
