Choosing a VPS Provider and Creating a Server
Choosing a VPS Provider
Your server, your rules — selecting the right hosting
A VPS (Virtual Private Server) gives you a dedicated virtual machine in the cloud where you have full root access. Unlike shared hosting, you control everything — the OS, the software, the firewall. This is where your Varyshop will live.
Recommended Providers
| Provider | Starting Price | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Hetzner | 3.79 EUR/mo | Best value in Europe |
| DigitalOcean | 6 USD/mo | Great documentation and UI |
| Contabo | 4.99 EUR/mo | Maximum resources for price |
| Linode | 5 USD/mo | Reliable with good support |
Minimum Server Requirements
Creating Your Server
Register an account
Sign up with your chosen provider. You will need an email and a payment method.
Create a new server
Select Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, choose the smallest plan that meets the requirements above, and pick a datacenter region close to your audience.
Set up SSH key
Generate an SSH key pair on your local machine and add the public key during server creation. This is more secure than password login.
Note your server IP
After creation, the provider will show you the server's public IP address. Save it — you will need it for every connection.
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your-email@example.com" cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
Never Use Password Authentication
Password-based SSH login is vulnerable to brute-force attacks. Always use SSH keys. We will disable password login entirely in the next lesson.
Start Small
You can always upgrade your server later. Start with the minimum and scale up when your store grows.
Server Ready
Once your server is created and you have its IP address and your SSH key configured, you are ready to connect for the first time and secure it.
