Description

In this course I setup two domains to point to a Lightsail instance.

I create the instance and associate a static IP to it from Lightsail.

I show you how to connect to your instance using mRemoteNG, a free SSH client.

I install Apache, MySql and PHP.

I create a database for each future WordPress instance.

I create virtual hosts for the two WordPress instances.

I install two WordPress instances.

I add two free SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt SSL using Certbot.

I take a look at two ways to make it easy to manage multiple WordPress instances: WordPress multisite and Prosites from GoDaddy. I explain which one is best suited for what and show you how to set Prosites up step by step.

I also sometimes run into issues and show you how I find my way out of them, in case you run into similar problems.

  • Webmasters, ops, developers who want to host multiple WordPress instances on amazon Lightsail
