Laravel Forge
💸
Pay for VPS, plus VPS software.
Laravel Forge is server-management software — it provisions and configures servers on VPS providers you bring yourself.
About Laravel Forge
Laravel Forge is a hosting server management software and thus actually a software service not a hosting service. It helps you setting up and managing servers on VPS providers such as DigitalOcean.
