After purchase, login to the client area to see your root password and IP address. Amazon assigns a static IP address immediately, but your VPS will not be active until WordPress has finished installing. | Instant |
Wait 5 mins after purchase for your server to install WordPress and send your WP-Admin username and password to your email. | 5 mins | |
Change your WP-Admin password | 2 mins |
Point your domain to your hosting. Propagation usually takes less than 1 min with Amazon Route 53 but can take much longer depending on your domain registrar. | 1 min |
Enable email. You’ll need to sign up for a 3rd party transactional mail provider. We recommend you activate these plugins: Mail Gun for WordPress or Brevo or use a free compatible SMTP plugin like WP Mail SMTP or Post SMTP for Gmail or email services that don’t offer their own plugin. If you need to send an email blast, we recommend you activate MailChimp, Brevo, or Constant Contact. | 5 mins |
Email Ports. Port 2525, 587 and 465 are available for your use and satisfy most SMTP sending and receiving email requirements. Like most cloud computing services, Amazon blocks outbound traffic on Port 25 on all new EC2 servers. We will need to submit your use case to AWS in case you wish to unblock Port 25. | 2 mins |
