You just buy hosting at almost any hosting provider, this cost about $10/month.

There are some requirements though, the most important is php support:

Rule of the thumb - dont get anything that says "windows". Generally speaking almost any modern hosting should be fine.

Here are some recommendations from our users:

I would recommend you to get hosting space in the part of the world you live. Ie. if you in USA, get it from US company, same for Europe. This is related to trans-atlantic cable, it will just work faster for you this way.

Hi Pain,

Is this hosting site compatible with imagevuex?

I believe Ultra Hosting plan should work because it has php support, dunno if they provide some testing grounds, we have the test script to see if basic features are supported:

Also you can send them list of requirements to ask if they have everything in order:
