I want to selfhost my own personal website. This is just for fun, as a hobby and to show off my skills to others. nothing big.

I have my own server home but I want to have something that’s separate from my personal stuff.

I do not need any support, meaning it can be as cheap as possible. I do not yet know how much RAM or CPU or storage I need. I guess CPU > 2GHz and 2GB RAM should be enough to start.

daily/weekly backup with rsync in case the hoster goes out of business.

I do not need a domain, I will use a dynamic dns hoster.

    Fair. Here are some that I find to be pretty consistently competitive:

    • Vultr
    • DigitalOcean
    • Hetzner

    I’ve used each and liked each. They’re rarely the absolute cheapest, but they are usually competitive at all tiers with no pretty much no shenanigans. I’m currently with Hetzner, which has been good for the few months I’ve been with them, but I’ve spent multiple years with the other two.
