First, I wouldn't host them all on one server for sanity reasons. Use at least one server per application platform, or better yet one per app.

As far as the actual hosting, look into all-in-one VPS solutions. Vultr is my personal preference (disclaimer, that's an invite link, following it and signing up will net you a 50 USD credit on your new account with which to test the platform, and will also get me credit on my account if you open an account). Their pricing is dead simple to understand, they have good customer service, and they let you deploy certain application stacks (most notably Docker, LAMP, or LEMP) directly in a single click (which makes setup much simpler).

Other similar options include AWS LightSail (slightly better pricing than Vultr currently, I've been considering switching), Digital Ocean (currently the same pricing as Vultr), and Linode (slightly worse pricing than Vultr right now).
