Unmetered Web Hosting
How much bandwidth will my plan include?
Bandwidth is "Unmetered" which means you are not charged according to the amount of bandwidth you typically use in the normal operation of a personal or small business website.
However, we do require all customers to be fully compliant with our Terms of Service and to not exceed 25% or more of system resources for longer than 90 seconds.
What happens if I exceed usage?
If we have concerns about your account's bandwidth utilization, you will receive an email asking you to reduce usage.
It is rare for a customer who is managing a personal or small business website to exceed our usage policies.
Multiple Data Centers
Deploy your VPS closer to your users with multiple data center locations, helping reduce latency and improve performance.

Infrastructure Only Support
We maintain the hardware, network, and virtualization layer. You manage your OS, configurations, and applications.
These Self Managed VPS plans are perfect when you want full control of your server and are comfortable managing your own software, configurations, and applications. If you prefer assisted management, explore our Managed VPS or Dedicated options.
*Support is limited to server hardware restarts and restores.
How Claude Code runs inside Bluehost VPS workspace
A coding agent is only as reliable as the machine it runs on. Watch what changes when that machine is a VPS.

ROOT ACCESS
Buy your server inside Claude Code with Bluehost MCP
A quick browser step handles account and payment. Then Claude Code takes over by buying your server and publishing your app.
Connect: Add the Bluehost MCP connector directly into your Claude Code workflow now.
Confirm: Create your Bluehost account, add a payment method, or simply sign in.
Provision: Your agent picks a VPS, completes the purchase, and gets SSH access.
Publish: Your agent connects over SSH and pushes your app live on the server.

FAQs: Claude Code hosting
Is a VPS better than a local machine for running Claude Code?
Yes. A local machine pauses Claude Code when it sleeps, disconnects or loses power. A VPS runs independently of your laptop on dedicated, isolated resources, so your files, tools and project state stay on the server. It suits long-running refactors, tests, builds and debugging.
How can I keep Claude Code running 24/7?
Run Claude Code on a VPS and start each session inside a terminal multiplexer such as tmux or screen. Your session keeps running after you close your SSH connection, and you can reattach later. For recurring tasks, schedule them with cron so they run without you being connected.
Can I self-host Claude Code on a VPS?
Yes. A VPS gives you a self-managed Linux server where you can self-host Claude Code, connect your repositories, configure dependencies and manage your development environment with full control. This is useful if you want a dedicated workspace that is not tied to a local machine, temporary sandbox or restricted IDE.
Do I need Claude Code access separately to use it on a VPS?
Yes. Bluehost provides the VPS environment where you can install tools, connect repositories and manage your development workflow. You still need the appropriate Claude Code access, account or authentication separately. Once configured, your VPS gives Claude Code a persistent server environment for running commands, editing files and working across sessions.
What is Claude Code hosting on a VPS best for?
Claude Code hosting is best for developers who use Claude Code for terminal-first workflows such as repo exploration, bug fixing, refactoring, test writing, scripting and automation. A VPS for Claude Code is also useful for internal tools, background jobs, multi-project environments and agency client workflows that need persistent uptime and full environment control.
Which VPS plan should I start with for Claude Code hosting?
Start with NVMe 4: 2 vCPU, 4 GB DDR5 RAM, 100 GB NVMe storage, unmetered bandwidth. It handles persistent sessions, builds and repo work, and Bluehost ranks among the best VPS plans under $15 for 2026 on VPSBenchmarks. NVMe 2 fits light scripting only. For large codebases, multi-project setups or heavy automation, choose NVMe 8 or higher.
Can I install my own runtimes, tools and dependencies?
Yes. Full root access lets you install and configure the tools your workflow needs, including Node, Python, Go, Rust, Docker, package managers, shell utilities and custom scripts. Self-hosting Claude Code this way gives it a real development environment to run commands, verify output and complete iterative tasks.
How is Claude Code on VPS different from using a managed cloud platform?
Managed platforms often abstract or restrict the environment, which can limit shell access, custom runtimes and persistent state. Claude Code on VPS gives you direct control over the Linux environment, making it a better fit for workflows that depend on file access, command execution, dependency management and long-running sessions.
Can I use a VPS for multiple Claude Code projects?
Yes. You can use one VPS for Claude Code across multiple projects or create separate VPS environments for different apps, clients or workflows. Separate environments help isolate dependencies, reduce conflicts and keep each project’s tools, configs and files organized.
What happens if my Claude Code workload grows?
You can upgrade your VPS plan as your needs change. This makes it easier to start with lightweight Claude Code self-hosting and grow into larger repositories, more automation tasks, concurrent jobs or team-based workflows without changing your infrastructure model.
What does KVM isolation mean for Claude Code hosting?
KVM isolation means your VPS runs in an isolated virtual environment with dedicated CPU and RAM allocations. For Claude Code hosting, this helps reduce noisy neighbor issues and gives Claude Code more consistent performance when reading files, editing code, running commands and verifying results across repeated workflow loops.
Can I run MCP servers, subagents, skills or hooks with Claude Code on a Bluehost VPS?
Yes. A persistent, self-managed runtime with full root access lets you connect MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and configure subagents, skills and hooks the same way you would on any Linux environment you control, running continuously in one organized workspace instead of being reconfigured every session.
Can Claude Code use Git and browser-based testing on a Bluehost VPS?
Yes. Claude Code runs terminal-native on the VPS, working directly alongside Git operations, package managers and browser-based testing tools in the same root-access shell, so these integrations run inside the same persistent environment as everything else, rather than a separate sandboxed layer.
What's the cheapest VPS for Claude Code?
The NVMe 2 plan is the lowest-cost option and works well for light scripting, small repositories or occasional testing. It was ranked #1 in VPS Benchmarks' Best Value VPS for August 2026, which rates plans on performance per dollar. For persistent development work, repository tasks and longer shell sessions, the NVMe 4 plan is the recommended starting point.
Can I buy a Bluehost VPS from inside Claude Code?
Yes. The Bluehost MCP connector lets Claude Code and Claude Desktop find a VPS, complete the purchase and provision SSH key access on your behalf, then publish your application to the server over SSH. You create your Bluehost account and add a payment method in your browser, which keeps your card details out of the AI tool. After that, you continue in your terminal.
Can Claude Code use Jev for fast decision checks on a Bluehost VPS?
Yes. Jev isn't plug-and-play for Claude Code the way it is for tools like n8n, since Claude Code already runs on a full LLM. A small integration layer lets it send risky actions to Jev for a fast check first, using your existing Gateway key. You decide when to enable it.
