n8n on Hostinger VPS
Hostinger VPS publishes its own guide for deploying n8n.
Open-source workflow automation tool deployed from an official Docker image, storing workflows, credentials and execution history that must survive redeploys.
What n8n needs.
Every host claims to run n8n, so the claim on its own decides nothing. These are the things n8n actually requires from the platform underneath it, and what Hostinger VPS publishes about each. Hostinger VPS documents 3 of the 4.
Persistent storage
Supported
Unless it is pointed at an external database, n8n keeps workflows, credentials and execution history on local disk. Without a volume, everything you built disappears on the next deploy.

Persistent processes
Supported
Webhook triggers have to be reachable between runs, and a workflow can execute for minutes. Both need a process that stays up rather than one that starts per invocation.

Docker deployment
Supported
Every provider guide for n8n starts from the official Docker image. A platform that cannot run a container cannot run n8n.

Max request duration
Not documented
A workflow calling several slow APIs in sequence is a single HTTP request as far as the platform is concerned, so the request ceiling is what cuts it off mid-run.

Whether it suits you.
Running Docker applications on a cheap KVM server with root access, where 4 GB of RAM at the entry plan matters more than a managed control plane. The one-click catalog covers the usual self-hosted stack.
Consider something else if…
The advertised price is introductory. Compare the two-year renewal rate, and note that Hostinger publishes continents rather than data centre locations, so you cannot pick a specific region before buying.
