How much does Ubuntu VPS hosting cost?
It depends on your chosen hosting provider. At Hostinger, we offer powerful KVM VPS hosting plans with affordable prices:

Each plan also comes with weekly backups and a real-time snapshot to keep your data secure.
Once your project grows, you can easily scale to a higher plan via our VPS control panel.
How to install Ubuntu on VPS?
First things first, you need to purchase one of our VPS hosting plans. After that, access your hPanel account and head to VPS at the top menu. Then, select your VPS plan and navigate to OS & Panel → Operating System.
Locate the Change Your Operating System section, select Applications, and install your preferred Ubuntu template. You can find the full list on our VPS operating system support page.
Is Ubuntu good for server hosting?
Yes. Ubuntu is easy to use and compatible with most programming languages, from Python to PHP. Combined with our KVM virtual server technology, you get a powerful and secure server environment suitable for resource-demanding projects.
We also offer other Linux distributions for VPS web hosting, including CentOS, Debian, and Rocky Linux – whatever you prefer.
How do you host a website on Ubuntu hosting?
After buying our Ubuntu hosting plan, install one of the available Ubuntu templates and connect to your VPS via a Secure Shell (SSH) client. Find your SSH details by accessing hPanel → VPS, choosing your server, and navigating to Overview → SSH Access.
Alternatively, you can use our Browser Terminal located on the VPS → Overview page. Log in to your server using the root user account and password you’ve set during onboarding. Once successful, start managing the web server.
