SearXNG Hosting Live In 5 Minutes
Search the web through an engine that answers to you. SearXNG queries dozens of providers on your behalf, strips the tracking, and keeps no profile — and running your own instance means the queries never belong to a public operator either.
- No terminal
- No technical skills needed
- No lock-in, cancel anytime
From Sign-Up to Private Search In Just 3 Easy Steps
Public SearXNG instances are free but shared, rate-limited and run by strangers. Your own takes about five minutes.
Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick SearXNG from the OneClick catalog. Takes 30 seconds — no server to prepare.
Step 02
We Deploy It On Your Domain
One click. We provision the server, bring SearXNG up on your own domain and issue the SSL certificate.
Step 03
Make It Your Default Engine
Add the instance as a search engine in your browser, tune which providers it queries, and stop being the product.
Not Just Another Front End — A Search Engine That Answers To You
SearXNG sits between you and the search providers, so none of them ever see a coherent picture of who is asking.
Aggregates Many Providers
Results are pulled from dozens of engines and merged, so you are not reliant on one company's index or its ranking.
No Profiling
No accounts, no cookies following you and no behavioural profile. Queries are not tied to an identity because there is no identity.
Your Own Instance
On a public instance you trust the operator. On your own, the only person who could log a query is you, and you decide not to.
Tune Every Engine
Turn providers on and off, weight them, and set safe search per category so results match how you actually search.
Works As A Browser Default
Add it as an OpenSearch engine in any browser and it becomes the address-bar default, on desktop and mobile alike.
Feeds Your AI Tools
A JSON API makes it a search backend for self-hosted assistants and agents that need web results without a paid search key.

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
John ApertureI went from Cloudways to xCloud. No intention on switching in the foreseeable future.
Blaine MooreFrequently Asked Questions
Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.
What is SearXNG?
SearXNG is an open-source metasearch engine. Rather than crawling the web itself, it forwards your query to many search providers, merges what comes back and removes the tracking on the way through. It builds no user profile and is licensed AGPL-3.0.
Why self-host it instead of using a public instance?
Public instances are convenient and genuinely useful, but you are trusting an operator you do not know with every query, and shared instances get rate-limited or blocked by providers precisely because they are shared. Your own instance is used by you, so it is neither of those things.
Does it keep search logs?
SearXNG is built not to profile users, and on your own server the only party who could keep logs is you. That is the substantive difference from any hosted search product: the question stops being whether you trust the policy and becomes a fact about where the software runs.
Will results get blocked or rate limited?
Providers do throttle traffic that looks automated, which is what tends to degrade busy public instances. A private instance with normal human usage is a very different traffic pattern and generally behaves well. You can also disable any provider that becomes unreliable.
What are the server requirements?
The template asks for 1 GB of RAM, 1 core and 4 GB of disk as a floor. This page sells the 6 GB tier, which is far above that — comfortable for a household or a team, and enough headroom to run other things on the same server.
Can I use it as my browser's default search?
Yes. SearXNG exposes OpenSearch, so any modern browser can add your instance as a search engine and make it the address-bar default on desktop and mobile.
Can my AI tools use it?
Yes, and it is a common reason to run one. SearXNG can return JSON, which makes it a web-search backend for self-hosted assistants and agents without paying for a commercial search API.
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.
