Whether you want a site generated for you, a WordPress site you manage yourself, your own code deployed, or files you already have hosted, CM Cloud has a self-serve path for each. This guide helps you choose the right one and points to the step-by-step article for that path.
Before you start
Before you start
Decide roughly what you are building — a business or brochure site, a blog, an online store, or a custom web app — and whether you will write and manage the content yourself or want it generated for you.

Step-by-step guidance
- Fastest, with no technical work — AI Launch: describe your business and our AI generates a complete, styled website in minutes. Best when you want to be online today. Start at cmcloudhosting.com/ai-launch.
- Manage your own content — WordPress: a managed WordPress site with themes and plugins for blogs, business sites, schools, churches, and online stores (WooCommerce). Best when you will edit pages yourself.
- Deploy your own code — App Deployment: push a static site, Node.js, Python (FastAPI or Flask), Laravel, or PocketBase app from GitHub. A custom domain, automatic SSL, and zero-downtime deploys are handled for you. Best for developers and custom apps.
- Upload files you already have — Web Hosting: host your own HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, or a website-builder export, on fast SSD hosting with free SSL. Best when you already have a site.
- Add your domain to any path: search or register a domain under Domains, connect it, and SSL is issued automatically.
