Cloudways
Cloudways is a managed cloud hosting platform, owned by DigitalOcean since 2022, that lets users run WordPress, WooCommerce, Magento, Laravel and other PHP applications on servers from providers such as DigitalOcean, AWS and Google Cloud without managing the servers themselves. It is popular with agencies and freelancers managing client sites. It is billed pay-as-you-go by server size. Sites hosted on Cloudways are often agency-managed PHP sites, prospects for competing hosts, WordPress plugin vendors and maintenance services.

How do I find websites that just moved to Cloudways?
The New tab on this page lists websites where our crawler saw Cloudways for the first time in the last days, newest first; the Dropped tab lists the ones that moved away. Both download with a subscription and refresh every morning.
How do I get a list of websites on Cloudways?
A free BetaScan account downloads a {sample_rows}-row sample. A subscription from $69 a month gives the full list of 22,469 domains, or a dataset with emails, phones, country, hosting and ranks, filtered by country, TLD, rank and registration date. See pricing.
How does BetaScan detect Cloudways?
Our crawler fetches the homepage of every domain we track and matches the page and its response headers against the signatures of 7,636 technologies. A website counts as using Cloudways when its latest crawl shows the signature; when the signature disappears, the site moves to the dropped list.
