Website hosts

get a vps, like dreamhost

fuck I meant digitalocean idk why i said dreamhost

>tfw listened to too many podcast adverts in one lifetime

I've been using DigitalOcean for over a year and I recommend it a lot. Cheap, excellent service, good locations, etc.

Vultr or DigitalOcean, both are pretty good

AWS is so god damned awesome for Django.

If you ever take time to learn AWS, you'll thank yourself.

maybe or maybe not related. can someone can track you just with your vps ip? is there something like whois but for a vps

not op, btw. i'm a newbie and don't want people to mock the garbage i do while learning web dev

>don't want people to mock the garbage i do while learning web dev
No one cares and most people will never find you if you're not among the first results of a google search, the only visits i get other than customers are web crawlers or automated exploits attempts both of which are blocked

i was lurking lowendbox for a cheap vps, but most want too much information. would it be possible for someone to get my info? i don't plan to even buy a domain name.

thx for replying

Why not host it yourself?

>>62417775
except that you can actually filter your search results based on this kind of shit.

running django applications is done mostly with the builtin webserver. install a vm, configure your apache/nginx/etc to run your application. then find out how you secure your webserver, then find out how to secure your application, by proper validation, less js which introduces lots of xss possibilities, etc.

never go live with shit that can haunt you, specially not when you have absolutely no experience in that field

bumpity

Thank you for your replies, guys. At least you provide info a dork like me can understand.

So suggested hosts are DigitalOcean, Vultr and AWS.

I want to understand AWS and all, but I do not have any experience in this field. So I will try out DigitalOcean first, which looks easy to set up on a first glance. Once I got enough experience and I see that AWS is much better for me, I will switch.

I want to try this, too. Do I need to setup my own apache/nginx server for this or can I just link a DNS to my localhost (which I run with "python manage.py runserver")?
But I want to host my own website on a long term, just because I want other people to use it as well. My dream is to have the website generate a little income. And even if it's $5 income a month, it will be worth for all the experience I gathered and the free beer.

Thanks for the info, anon. I want to learn how to configure servers with this little project and get experience. I cannot do this with any of the cloud services.

lol holy fuck, man.

Based as fuck! Is this company reliable, how is their support?

>>62422421
Never had to contact support. Everything rolls just fine

>>62418671
never worked with "cloud" aws, azure or anything, can't really say much about it. just setup a vm, configure network and do the testing at home. no need to buy a vps just to test your stuff.

Unironically try IBM Bluemix, way simpler than Heroku.
