# Discord bot hosting compared: your PC vs free hosts vs Endercloud

> Running a bot on your PC or a free host means it goes offline. Endercloud bot hosting keeps it running all the time from ₹35/month, with UPI payment, 13+ languages and a full panel.

A Discord bot only works while its code is running. If it runs on your PC, it goes offline when the PC sleeps; free hosts often put bots to sleep or restart them. **Endercloud bot hosting** keeps your bot running all the time from **₹35 a month**, paid in rupees with UPI.

## Why bots run well on Endercloud

-   **Pick your language at checkout** (NodeJS, Python, DiscordJS, C#, Go, Java, Rust, Bun, Deno and more) and [change it later](/docs/change-your-bot-language-or-version) if needed.
    
-   **Easy deploys:** upload files, use SFTP, or pull straight from GitHub using the Git settings in **Startup**. `npm install` runs automatically when there's a `package.json`.
    
-   **Choose the location:** **USA** is closest to Discord's servers, which is best for most Discord bots. India and Singapore are also available.
    
-   **Host a dashboard too:** extra ports plus a [free HTTPS link](/docs/free-ssl-link-for-your-web-app) or [your own domain with free SSL](/docs/link-a-custom-domain-to-your-server).
    
-   **Indian payments:** UPI, cards, net banking and [UPI AutoPay](/docs/how-to-set-up-upi-autopay), in rupees.

3.  Upload your code in **Files** (or set your Git repo in **Startup**) and set the **Main file**.

## Frequently asked questions

**Q: Why does my bot go offline when I close my laptop?**

The bot is a program running on your laptop. When the laptop sleeps or loses internet, the bot stops. Hosting it on a server keeps it running all the time.

**Q: Which location is best for a Discord bot?**

USA, because it's closest to Discord's own servers, so commands respond faster. Choose India if your bot mainly talks to services hosted in India.

**Q: Can I host a Telegram bot or a website too?**

Yes. Bot hosting runs Telegram bots, APIs and Node.js or Python web apps. Use an extra port with a [free HTTPS link](/docs/free-ssl-link-for-your-web-app) for websites.

**Q: My bot keeps going offline. What should I check?**

Usually it's a crash in the code or the plan running out of memory. See [My bot keeps going offline](/docs/bot-keeps-going-offline).
