# Recommended Hosts

Sandvox is able to work with a large number of hosts, so any host you may have chosen will probably work just fine.
However, if you are looking for a hosting company, we can wholeheartedly recommend A2 Hosting.

#### Host Settings

- Since all plans include SSH, use SFTP for the best security.
- (Note that A2 Hosting's SFTP server requires that port 7822 be specified in Sandvox's Host Setup.)
- The document root is usually `public_html`, sometimes `htdocs`, sometimes `www`. It could also be the default folder of your FTP or SFTP account, usually represented as `./`. Your hosting provider should be able to give you the correct information. You can also use the Browse button to the right of the Document Root field to select the correct path on the server.
