Well, fuck. Any recommended alternatives? Self-hosting is a non-starter, I'm more than happy to pay someone else to keep PHP/MySQL etc patched, just not $180/y

- justusthane 5y agoJust grab any shared hosting for $5-10/mo (A Small Orange for example). They’ll keep PHP and MySQL updated for you, and many of them provide one click WP installs as well—and even if they don’t, WP is very easy to install, and it has a built-in one-click updater.
- npteljes 5y agoEspecially easy to install because often, for the bigger providers, there are provider specific instructions to install stuff. Sometimes even from the provider themselves.
- TimothyBJacobs 5y agoSpinupWP makes self-hosting WordPress sites really simple. Rarely do you ever need to actually make any changes to your server. You can just give it a Digital Ocean box to connect to, and it provides a UI to create sites and manage everything. https://spinupwp.com https://spinupwp.com
