What Hostinger does
Hostinger sells shared, WordPress and VPS hosting. Its Docker VPS plans come with an Ubuntu 24.04 template with Docker preinstalled, a visual Docker Manager that deploys from Compose files, a Traefik template for routing and HTTPS, AMD EPYC processors, NVMe storage, weekly automatic backups and data centres in North America, Europe, Asia and South America.
The analytics use is self-hosting. Matomo, Plausible Community Edition and Umami all publish Docker Compose set-ups, so a small VPS can run privacy-friendly analytics with the data on a server you control. Self-hosting moves the work to you: updates, backups, security and capacity. Read how to self-host Matomo or Plausible before you commit.
A good fit for
- Developers and technical marketers who want analytics data on their own server at low cost.
- Agencies running one self-hosted analytics instance for several small client sites.
Probably not for
- Teams without someone to patch and back up a server: hosted Plausible or Matomo Cloud is simpler.
- High-traffic sites: they need sizing and database tuning beyond an entry VPS.
Alternatives
- Cloudways: Managed cloud servers, with patching and backups handled.
- Plausible (hosted): No server to run.
- Matomo Cloud: Matomo hosted by its makers.
