Next you need to decide where do you want to host you website. There are tons of options out there, but few stand out to me at this point:
OVH.com offers good performance, best prices, but has a pretty bad support($3.5/month)
Digital Ocean is sightly more expensive, but has great support. It’s also deemed to be more stable than OVH.($5/month)
BlueHost WordPress web hosting, which is very different compared to OVH and DigitalOcean. You get way less resources for almost same cost, though it might be easier to manage it.($3/month)
Install WordPress on DigitalOcean
Create a DigitalOcean account. You can use my referral to get $100 in credit over 60 days: https://m.do.co/c/14c39bf16fab
When you’re logged in, you will see your resources: none. Let’s go ahead and click Get Started:
When creating a droplet, choose One-click apps tab
select WordPress (might be a different version for you. 18.04 is the Ubuntu version used)
Choose cheapest plan by clicking on the left arrow to reach the $5/month droplet
Leave everything as it is and click create
In a couple minutes, your server will be ready with WordPress installed.
