Create and configure your Virtual Private Server (VPS), with a high-security rating, from scratch and step by step:
In this course, you are going to create, configure and deploy your VPS server from scratch, set it correctly, with the adequate security measures and the most recommended mechanisms. Always use secure protocols such as SSH to connect with your VPS and HTTPS to protect your websites and projects. Forget the insecure passwords, so you can establish secure connections with your server with the SSH protocol, without problems and achieve anything you need.

Keep your own space in the cloud for all your jobs, projects and ideas, deploy all types of projects in the same instance and with the number of domains and sub-domains that you want, without having additional costs.

In the course, you will deploy four different projects using Wordpress and Laravel, each one in a different domain or sub-domain.

During the course is recommended to use DigitalOcean, but you are free to create your VPS with the provider you want or need. You can follow the course using any clean instance of Ubuntu 18.04LTS in your selected VPS provider. Everything will be done from scratch and step by step, without relying on additional services.

Why must you take this course?

  • Because it uses the most recent version of Ubuntu (Ubuntu 18.04) which is a Long Term Support (LTS) version. This version allows you to obtain updates and security patches for at least two years, which means that you can deploy your system in Ubuntu 18.04LTS and you will not have to worry about moving to another version for a long time

  • Because there is not another online course which explains every step at this level of detail

  • Because Letsencrypt is a trend, and you will not find content that teaches you how to use it in the way it is done in this course (the correct and simple way)

  • Because the best standards are used to obtain the highest security rating (A+) in the sites that you ensure following the course

  • Because today, the main browsers are demanding secure HTTPS connections in any online site or service, and by following the course, you can secure all your systems for free using Nginx and Letsencrypt

  • Because you will learn to deploy two of the most popular types of projects in PHP, which are Wordpress and Laravel sites
