I will setup self hosted n8n on your vps with SSL backups and security
AI Automation Developer n8n AI Agents Document Extraction
About this Gig
Paying $50+/month for n8n Cloud or Zapier tasks? A self hosted n8n instance on a $6 VPS gives you unlimited workflows, unlimited executions, and full ownership of your data.
I will install and configure self hosted n8n on your server (Hetzner, DigitalOcean, AWS, Contabo, or any Ubuntu VPS) production-ready, not a bare Docker container that dies on reboot.
What you get:
- n8n installed via Docker with docker-compose
- Custom domain + free SSL (HTTPS)
- Automatic daily backups (workflows + credentials)
- Auto-restart on crash or server reboot
- Update-safe setup upgrade n8n with one command
- Secured login, correct env vars and timezone
- Optional: migration of your existing workflows from n8n Cloud, Zapier or Make
Why me:
I build AI automations in n8n daily document extraction, chatbots, API integrations so your self hosted n8n is configured the way a power user actually runs it: webhook-ready and secure.
How it works:
1. Send VPS access (or I'll help you create one in 10 minutes)
2. I install, secure and test everything
3. You get a handover doc + video walkthrough

FAQ
I don't have a VPS yet. Can you still help?
Yes. I'll recommend a provider for your budget (from ~$6/month) and guide you through signup in about 10 minutes. Server cost is paid by you directly to the provider.
Is self-hosted n8n really free?
The n8n Community Edition is free for internal business use under n8n's Sustainable Use License. You only pay for your server. I'll explain the license limits in the handover doc.
Will my existing Zapier or Make automations transfer?
Most map cleanly to n8n nodes. A few niche app integrations may need an HTTP workaround — I'll flag anything like that before starting (Premium package).
What do you need from me to get started?
VPS login (SSH), a domain or subdomain you control (optional but recommended), and for migrations, export files or read access to your existing workflows.
What happens after delivery if something breaks?
Standard includes a walkthrough so you're self-sufficient. Premium includes 14 days of message support. Ongoing maintenance can be arranged as a custom offer.
