Once you've built your Wagtail site, it's time to release it upon the rest of the internet.

Wagtail is built on Django, and so the vast majority of the deployment steps and considerations for deploying Django are also true for Wagtail. We recommend choosing one of the hosting providers listed below.

Choosing a Hosting Provider

Several hosting providers offer varying levels of support for Wagtail. We’ve organized them into three categories:

Wagtail-level support (easiest deployment).
Python-level support (requires some knowledge of WSGI and file storage).
Infrastructure-level support (requires knowledge of Linux).
