Linux Server Configuration

A misconfigured server is a common cause of slow sites, downtime and security breaches. We configure and harden Linux servers (Ubuntu / Debian) with Nginx, Apache, PHP-FPM, MySQL and SSL. From €200 for basic setup to €400+ for full infrastructure with hardening, backups and monitoring.

Linux Server Configuration

What every project includes

  • Linux install (Ubuntu / Debian) and base firewall
  • Web server (Nginx or Apache) + PHP-FPM + MySQL / MariaDB
  • SSL certificate (Let's Encrypt) with auto-renewal
  • Hardening, automated backups, monitoring and caching (Redis)

What we need from you

Server access

SSH access — VPS, dedicated or in-office. We help you choose if you don't have one yet.

What it will host

WordPress, Laravel, static site, API, database. We choose the optimal setup based on the workload.

Expected load

Visitor numbers, data size, peak hours. Defines resource sizing and caching strategy.

Backup strategy

Backup frequency, retention period, whether to send offsite (S3, Backblaze).

Key advantages

  • Speed — correctly tuned Nginx, PHP-FPM and MySQL deliver a multi-times improvement in Time to First Byte
  • Security — fail2ban, SSH key auth, firewall rules and regular updates
  • Cost control — a €15-30/month VPS replaces a €100+/month managed host
  • Off-site backups — restore within minutes even on full provider failure

A server is invisible — until it stops. So we don't just set things up — we leave everything documented, with backups, monitoring and a clear runbook for when something goes wrong. Peace of mind, not just speed.

For projects in Bulgaria — Hetzner and DigitalOcean. For UK / EU — Hetzner, Linode, Vultr. We help you choose based on load, budget and user location.

We offer monthly support with guaranteed response time (see our "SEO + Maintenance" service). Includes monitoring, updates and incident response — often before you notice anything is down.

Yes — we migrate sites from cPanel / Plesk / other shared hosts to your own VPS. We move files, database, email and DNS, with minimal downtime thanks to a parallel setup.

Layered defence: firewall (only needed ports open), fail2ban for brute force, SSH key authentication, ModSecurity / WAF for web apps, regular security updates and off-site backups.
