I turn a fresh VPS into a production server: secure users and SSH, firewall, Nginx with free Let's Encrypt SSL that renews itself, your app running under PM2, systemd or Docker, and your domain pointed at it.
What's included
- Ubuntu or Debian base setup: users, SSH keys, updates, timezone, swap
- Nginx reverse proxy with HTTP/2, gzip, caching headers and redirects (www or apex)
- Let's Encrypt SSL with tested auto-renewal
- Node.js, Next.js, PHP/Laravel, Python or Docker app deployed and started on boot
- PostgreSQL, MySQL or Redis installed and locked to localhost
- DNS help for Cloudflare, Namecheap, GoDaddy and others
- Handover notes: how to deploy, restart and read logs
Who this is for
- Moving off shared hosting to a VPS
- First server for a new product
- Multiple sites on one VPS
What I need from you
- VPS root or sudo access
- Domain DNS access
- Your app repository or files

Questions
Which VPS provider should I use?
Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Vultr, Hostinger and AWS Lightsail all work. I suggest one for your budget and location if you have not picked yet.
Can you host several sites on one server?
Yes. Each gets its own Nginx config, SSL certificate and process, so one crash does not take the others down.

- Clean, maintainable code following modern best practices
- Deployment to secure infrastructure with monitoring

How we'll work together
We start with a short requirements discussion, agree on scope and milestones, then move through implementation, review and handover. You get clear visibility into progress and a stable deployment at the end.
