Best Next.js hosting
8 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.
| Provider | Category | Documented fit for Next.js | Entry paid plan | Free tier |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AWS Amplify | Frontend & serverless | Dedicated guide | No monthly minimum — Amplify Hosting is billed per unit. A representative month for one small app, priced at Amplify's published rates: 100 build minutes ($1.00), 5 GB stored ($0.11), 100 GB served ($15.00), with SSR requests inside the free 500,000 — about $16.11. Our arithmetic on Amplify's rates, not a price Amplify quotes, and it moves with traffic: egress is 93% of it. Recorded without a magnitude for that reason. | No |
| Cloudflare Pages | Frontend & serverless | Generic path | $5 / month account minimum | Yes |
| Fly.io | App platforms | Dedicated guide | Not documented | No |
| Google Cloud Run | App platforms | Dedicated guide | No plan fee and no minimum commitment. Cloud Run bills per vCPU-second, GiB-second and request once the monthly free allowance is used, so there is no entry price to compare, only a rate card. Recorded without a magnitude for that reason. | Yes |
| Netlify | Frontend & serverless | Dedicated guide | $9/month for 1,000 credits/month | Yes |
| Railway | App platforms | Dedicated guide | $5 / month (Hobby) | Yes |
| Render | App platforms | Dedicated guide | Not documented | Yes |
| Vercel | Frontend & serverless | Dedicated guide | $20 per developer seat / month (Pro) | Yes |
What actually works.
Every platform here claims Next.js support, so the claim on its own says little. These are the capabilities each provider documents, and the constraints it documents alongside them.
