How To Install Magento On Vultr Hosting Via Cloudways

Vultr is one of the fastest-growing cloud hosting infrastructure providers in the world today, mainly thanks to its low latency server provision. Its data centers are located in 15 locations across 4 continents.

Launching a Vultr cloud server is not much of a hassle if you have the technical knowledge. If you do, you can host a complex content management system like Magento on Vultr. But if you don’t, well, it’s going to be a challenge. On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the toughest, I would rate it a 9.

Put it simply, it’s actually really tough to host Magento on Vultr.

But wait! If you are a Cloudways customer, it’s just a matter of mere minutes – and you do not need much technical knowledge. In fact, all you need is a general know-how of the internet, and how hosting works. Cloudways takes care of the rest.

Launch Magento on Vultr with Cloudways

Launching a Vultr cloud on the managed cloud hosting service of Cloudways is an easy process. It takes just a few minutes and clicks. The best part is that there is no complex code involved.

Let’s get started.

All you have to do is sign up on the Cloudways platform by entering your email address and setting a password. Now, select Magento from the drop-down menu. You can choose the preferred version. Here you will have to give a name to your Application, Server, and select your Project.

Now choose the cloud infrastructure for your Magento store. For this installation, you have to choose Vultr.

Choose the right server size for your Magento store based on the number of visitors you expect to have in your store. The minimum recommended size for the Magento stores is 4GB.

Now, you need to select your desired location.

Remember, you should choose a location that is close to your target audience to reduce server latency and improve response time. One of the main benefits of hosting on Vultr is that you can choose from more than 15 locations across different continents of the world.

Keeping the latency factor in mind, I will highly recommend you to select the data center nearest to your audience’s location. With Cloudways, you can also choose for the Vultr HF but both Standard and HF servers have different server locations.
