How to install WordPress blog on the free Amazon AWS EC2 instance.


To start, there is no point re-stating the steps as they are very clear in the AWS tutorial provided below.

Why I decided to look at the WordPress self-hosting if I have this blog for last 10 years?

There are really 2 reasons:

  • Extensions available for WordPress are far superior to any other blogging platform
  • The WordPress hosted on EC2 instance is on well, Amazon AWS, the infrastructure lives in the same datacenter and benefits from high speed connection to my other micro-services such as AWS Lambda functions. 


Stay tuned for customization tips.
