# Hosting

There are hundreds of thousands of web hosts out there, the vast majority of which meet the [Companion System Requirements](https://docs.stylemixthemes.com/companion-theme-documentation/general/system-requirements), and choosing one from the crowd can be a chore. Just like flowers need the right environment to grow, Companion works best when it’s in a rich hosting environment.&#x20;
