What this service covers

A new VPS usually arrives with only a base operating system. I confirm the application runtime and provider limits, then configure users, SSH keys, updates, firewall rules, time, logs, web server, database, and TLS for the defined workload.

The package may add automated backups, monitoring, alerts, cache services, multiple virtual hosts, and application deployment. Password access and open ports are reduced where practical. Credentials remain with the client, and the handoff records important paths, services, and recovery steps.

A hardened setup reduces common risk but does not make a server permanently secure or maintenance-free. Provider fees, software licenses, application vulnerabilities, incident response, and future operating system updates require separate ownership or ongoing management.

Frequently asked questions

Which VPS provider should I use?

I compare region, resources, support, backup options, network limits, and pricing for your workload. The account and provider charges remain under your ownership.

Who manages the server after setup?

You receive full control and a handoff. Ongoing patching, monitoring, backups, incidents, and support can be covered by a separate monthly management plan.

Can you move me from shared hosting to a VPS?

Yes, after checking application, email, DNS, and database requirements. Migration, final synchronization, validation, and rollback steps are agreed before cutover.

Linux Server Management

Linux server management covers agreed maintenance, patching, hardening, monitoring, backup checks, troubleshooting, and response targets for a defined server estate.

Docker Container Setup

Docker setup packages a defined application and its selected services into repeatable containers with documented configuration, storage, networking, and startup behavior.

SSL Certificate Installation

SSL certificate installation enables HTTPS for the agreed domains, validates the certificate chain, configures redirects and renewal, and addresses scoped mixed-content issues.

Domain, Hosting and DNS Setup

Domain and hosting setup connects client-owned providers with the correct website, email, DNS, TLS, and redirect records for a planned launch.

Website Migration Service

Website migration moves a defined site to new hosting with backups, test copies, database transfer, DNS planning, validation, final synchronization, and rollback preparation.

Website Speed Optimization

Website speed optimization measures agreed pages and improves the image, code, cache, CDN, database, or server bottlenecks supported by the current stack.
