Who hosts this website?

[Lug]

Just wondering who hosts this website.
Looking to create my own website like this.
https://www.gosmartvps.com/

Any suggestions of other website hosts I should use?
(For renting servers) - Just wondering, probably will not happen..
Thanks

We're sponsored by BeastNode but for your first website, I recommend a cPanel host

We host a lot of websites on our VPS plans, we don't offer cPanel unfortunately but hosting off a VPS can be a very rewarding experience! Just takes time to learn!

If you have an idea of how SSH works or you're willing to learn, I agree with BeastNode
A lot of system administration is just Google, copy paste and see if it works (totally not from experience).

Once you get the details, just do yum install httpd and that's essentially it
For security (the hardest part), https://www.beastnode.com/portal/knowledgebase/95/Securing-your-VPS.html

Hope this helps you!

I'd recommend StableHost if you need simple cPanel web hosting. I've been using them for my personal websites and forums for a bit over a year now and haven't had any issues. If you go with them send me a PM first and I can get them to give you a discount on my part.

Definitely shy away from cPanel hosts, as an avid user of VPS servers to host sites in my opinion it gives much more control over your website than a panel, phpMyAdmin is enough.

While BeastNode sponsors this site, I'd recommended renting an OVH Classic VPS as it's very cheap and great for your first host.

If you want to learn the basics of linux, I'd recommend getting a VPS from DigitalOcean. I've used them for my projects and I've been quite happy with them so far. (Low prices, fast support, etc.)

They charge by the hour so creating a server to test some stuff and removing it after may only cost you under a cent.

(If you use my referal link they'll give you $10 in credit: http://bit.ly/1sKQAYj)

Please note that even if you do apply the $10 credit to your account, you will need to make a deposit of minimum $5 with either PayPal or credit card to actually create a droplet.

DigitalOcean has basically instant setup (60 seconds at most) and also multiple locations as well.
If you are new to linux as nxtguy said, definitely try out DO.

I didn't know that. Thanks for bringing it up.

No problem. I have some extra credit on DO if you want.
I can create a droplet if you ever do need one, as I don't use DO except for the random website.
