Can my host deploy WordPress from Git?

SSH and native Git deploys at 15 hosts, checked against each host's own documentation.

Every host handles Git deployments differently! So on this page, we let you compare, find your own hosting company and see where you're at.

Every host has their own git strategy, but WP Pusher works everywhere! We run on your WordPress site, which means, no matter which host you choose, you'll still be able to deploy.

SSH means you can get a shell on the site. Git deploy means the host deploys from your repo itself, without a third-party tool or a script you write.

One workflow

Five different client sites shouldn't mean five deploy setups

WP Pusher needs no Git and no SSH on the server, adds nothing to your plugins or themes and works on every single host. Install from GitHub, Bitbucket or GitLab, push a commit, and the site updates. Just like that.
