Best hosting for Next.js
7 providers on this site publish their own Next.js documentation. Every row below links to the guide it came from.
React framework with file-based routing, server components and a build step that produces both static and server-rendered output.
Where you can deploy it.
Ordered by how the provider documents it — a dedicated guide first, a generic path second. There is no score: the ordering is the evidence.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| AWS Amplify | Dedicated guide | Git | Not documented | Next.js on AWS Amplify |
| Fly.io | Dedicated guide | Docker | Not documented | Next.js on Fly.io |

| Cloudflare Pages | Generic path | Git | $5 / month account minimum | Next.js on Cloudflare Pages |
What actually works.

| Image optimization | Supported | Supported | Supported |
| Middleware | Limited | Limited | Supported |
| ISR / revalidation | Limited | Supported | Supported |
