I am running wordpress on aws lights=sail....
I am running wordpress on aws lights=sail. it's super cheap, and it's nice to get hands on experience with amazon web services. i will share some experiences in this thread
you can run an aws cloud server for a little as three dollars fifty a month. you initiate from pre-configured server images. so far it is harder than using a hosting service and takes some command line skills
th image i am using is a wordpress linux install from bitnami which is a vmware company. it is a good install, but it uses too recent a version of php which breaks my plugins, so i had to do a lamp server and install wp
big hosting services like godaddy give access to cpanel, a gui for installing servers and plugins. on lightsail i am installing on the command line and editing files with vi
