Hosting

Tiki is Free / Libre / Open Source software. Thus, you do not have to pay anything to anyone to Get Tiki, install and use Tiki on your computer or a server you own. However, if you want your website to be accessible online with a URL like http://example.com, you may need to use a web hosting service shared web hosting and a domain name. Web hosting is typically a paid service as companies offering this service have to pay for the computer hardware, electricity, bandwidth, personnel necessary to provide their services.

As Tiki is a mature application, it is widely tested in all kinds of configurations. The vast majority of web hosts meet the Tiki minimum Requirements.

InMotion


As of December 2023, Softaculous 1-click install on mid-level shared InMotion hosting yields an installation that can run Tiki but: (1) Does not have the InnoDB database engine, which is default for Tiki (Tiki can run without InnoDB); and (2) Does not have the Tiki package composer (this will become a problem when you want to install external packages). Citing these two issues, InMotion tech support wrote that on its shared hosting, "You won't be able to install composer, switch the db engine, etc. This software absolutely could be installed on a VPS but as it stands not on this shared server and most of the shared fleet." So InMotion customers may wish to consider a VPS for Tiki.
