ℹ️ Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting packages are now much more affordable than they used to be, making them a completely viable alternative to the traditional shared plans. If you’re considering getting a VPS for your upcoming project, you may have already seen there are two types of services – managed and unmanaged VPS hosting solutions.

Our goal today is to find out whether an unmanaged VPS is suitable for a WordPress website.

The short answer is: Yes, it definitely is. Both the managed and the unmanaged (or self-managed) VPS packages support WordPress websites. It’s no surprise as the open-source CMS only needs a combination of PHP and MySQL to run properly.

The process of setting WordPress on a self-managed VPS, however, could be a bit more complicated for novice users.
