FAQ. Joomla VPS
Common questions, straight answers.
What is a Joomla VPS?
A Joomla VPS is a virtual private server you fully control, running your Joomla 4 or Joomla 5 site on a stack you tune yourself. You get root SSH, NVMe storage, and dedicated resources, far better than shared hosting for any site with extensions or traffic.
How do I install Joomla?
Install LAMP or LEMP (apt install nginx mariadb-server php-fpm), drop the Joomla 5 archive into your webroot, run the web installer, done. Or pick a one-click LAMP image from the marketplace and skip the manual steps.
Which PHP version should I run?
PHP 8.3 is the sweet spot for Joomla 5. PHP 8.2 also works. Stay on supported PHP releases for security, the apt and dnf repos always carry current versions.
MariaDB or MySQL?
Either works. MariaDB is the default on Ubuntu/Debian and is binary-compatible with MySQL for Joomla's purposes. Pick what you know. Joomla doesn't care.
Can I run multiple Joomla sites on one VPS?
Yes. With Nginx server blocks, one 4 GB VPS comfortably runs 5–10 small Joomla sites. Each gets its own database. Use a free panel like CloudPanel or HestiaCP if you want a UI.
How do I migrate an existing Joomla site?
Use Akeeba Backup, the most popular Joomla migration tool. Create an archive on the old host, transfer it, run Akeeba Kickstart on the new VPS. End-to-end migration usually takes under 30 minutes.
Are there any hidden fees?
No. Egress is included in your transfer allotment. Snapshots are free. IPv4 + IPv6 are included. The only paid extras are Floating IPs ($2.50/month) and additional snapshots beyond the free quota.
Is there a money-back guarantee?
Yes, 14 days, full refund, no questions asked. Cancel from the panel anytime in the first two weeks.
