From http://www.hostinger.co.uk/knowledge-base/892:

Do you support node.js? Node.js can only be run on a VPS server.

    So I've recently been learning more about Node.js. I've previously done a bit of PHP, but since almost all hosting services provide a preinstalled PHP interpreter I haven't really had any issues there. I've setup Node.js on my own computer but I'm having issues figuring out if it is at all possible to setup Node.js on one of the hosting services I use such as JustHost or Hostinger.

    Sorry if I've completely got the wrong end of the stick. This is my first post :)

    I was able to install node using nvm. Look here for more information: heynode.com/tutorial/install-nodejs-locally-nvm/….

    @Fariman Kashani This is a guide to install and run node locally, but the question is specific to hosting.

    ignore the title. It'll work. I used this method to install node on my Hostinger shared hosting account.
