Dedimax Ghost Hosting review
Flexible Ghost infrastructure with root access, but updates remain your responsibility.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Dedimax Ghost Hosting provides infrastructure for running the open-source Ghost publishing platform on cloud servers, VPS instances, or dedicated servers. It is aimed at bloggers, newsletter creators, membership publishers, and larger media sites that want control over their hosting environment. Root access, Node.js support, Ghost CLI installation, and server configuration support the self-hosted approach, while Ghost's publishing, newsletters, paid memberships, member-only content, and SEO features remain available.
The published plans cover three clear workloads. Personal blog costs €3.90 per month for a cloud server with 1 core CPU, 1 GB RAM, 15 GB SSD, and unlimited traffic. Professional publication costs €9.99 per month and adds 2 cores, 2–4 GB RAM, and 30 GB SSD on a cloud server. High-traffic media costs €29 per month for a VPS or dedicated server with 4 cores, 8 GB RAM, 50 GB NVMe, and unlimited traffic. The progression gives smaller publications a lower-cost entry point while providing larger sites with more compute and faster storage options.
The main trade-off is operational responsibility. This is self-hosted infrastructure rather than a managed Ghost hosting plan: installation and server configuration can be handled through Ghost CLI, but updates are not managed. Integrations include Mailgun, Postmark, and SMTP for email delivery. Dedimax is a good fit for technical users who want root access, flexible infrastructure, and control over Ghost deployment. Publishers seeking a fully managed update process should choose a different hosting model.
