SRV

Self-Hosted Server Planning

For special cases, I can help build or plan a server for hosting, but I’ll also be honest when commercial hosting is safer and cheaper.

PLAN

Scope & Requirements

Help define the site goal, color scheme, pages, features, audience, calls to action, budget, and launch path before building.

Planning & Scope

Start with requirements, then build the website around the business.

The first question is not “what template do you like?” It is what the website needs to do. A service business, ecommerce site, local landing page, professional portfolio, and product catalog all need different structures.

  • Define the purpose of the site: calls, leads, sales, appointments, information, or credibility.
  • Choose the page structure, color scheme, brand direction, content needs, and calls to action.
  • Build service pages, homepage sections, menus, contact forms, and conversion paths.
  • Plan product sales, shipping, payments, quote requests, or service-only layouts when needed.
  • Set up hosting, domain, SSL, email, analytics, sitemap, and search indexing basics.
Hosting & Technical Setup

Hosting should match the site, budget, security needs, and maintenance reality.

Cheap hosting can be perfectly fine for many small-business sites. Self-hosting can make sense in some special situations, but it comes with security, backup, uptime, DNS, ISP, and maintenance responsibilities.

  • Recommend low-cost hosting options based on the project instead of overselling expensive hosting.
  • Set up domain records, SSL, DNS, email routing, WordPress, and basic site security.
  • Explain the tradeoffs between shared hosting, managed WordPress hosting, VPS hosting, and self-hosting.
  • Build or advise on a server when a client specifically needs a self-hosted environment.
  • Help with backups, updates, migration, launch, troubleshooting, and ongoing support.
