About Statamic

UK Statamic Hosting - PHP 8.1+, Composer, Flat-File CMS

Statamic hosting in the UK from Glitch Servers provides the PHP 8.1 environment, Composer package management, SSH access, and NVMe SSD performance that Statamic 4 and 5 require to run as either a flat-file or database-driven CMS on Enhance Panel. Statamic is a Laravel-based commercial CMS (with a free core) that has earned a strong following among developers who want a modern, clean control panel, flexible content modelling, and a Git-friendly workflow without the complexity of Drupal or the constraints of WordPress. Statamic's flat-file mode stores all content as YAML and Markdown files, making it naturally suited to version control and fast file-system reads from NVMe storage. The database mode uses MySQL for content storage at higher scale. Glitch Servers provides PHP 8.1 through 8.3, Composer via SSH, MySQL, writable storage directories, and free SSL on all Enhance Panel plans.
