I'm looking for a place where I can deploy a test NodeJS application and a React application. There's not a lot of code and no database connectivity. A fixed dedicated IP address is a requirement. Can I do this if I choose a shared web hosting plan or should I go for a virtual private server? CPU, disk space, speed requirement minimal, but there should the possibility to scale up.

Hi Risto, Node.js is not supported on Hostinger's Shared and Cloud hosting packages. If you want to use Node.js, you can install this useful feature on one of our VPS plans! You can check them at hostinger.com/vps-hosting
