Cloudways Free Trial 2025
Getting your hands on the trial is easy, but it’s better to follow these steps in detail. No credit card needed, instead, you need to go through a quick interview on live chat to give out your contact details for account creation.
Step 1. Recommended; log out from any user account first.
Step 2. Click here to open up free trial sign up.
Step 3. Choose to — “Start your free trial”.
Step 4. Enter your email, and password.
Instantly, a live chat window will open, where you’ll be asked a couple of easy questions before the actual account is created. It’s to prevent abuse since they don’t require credit cards or any other method of validation (unlike other hosting).
Step 5. You are ready to launch a trial on any of the cloud providers.
The common choice is between WordPress, Drupal & Joomla — or choose Custom PHP app for a customized web hosting environment.
Select any server size, amount of bandwidth, storage and location you want. But remember that server specifications can be changed later at any point in time.
Hit on the bright green “Launch Now” button — and you are good to go!
