The video how-to guides accompany the 20-part copy/paste series, adding a visual reference to help you set up your virtual private server.
the_guv is pretty chuffed to announce the release of a bunch of video guides to accompany the series, Set Up an Unmanaged VPS (4 Newbies) .. The V-P-S Bible.
Set Up an Unmanaged VPS (4 Newbies) .. The V-P-S Bible
In 20 copy/paste steps .. from zero to hero, blank box to cute-as Linux server.
Scroll down for the full series index.
So, hey, shed shared & viva virtual! Hope it helps. the_guv
This brings video to all the published posts in the series (up to Part 14) excepting Part 1: VPS (Virtual Private Server) vs Shared vs Dedicated.
That said, Parts 10 and 14 will have the video linked later today, 'cos it's still encoding up at Vimeo.
When the series is complete, each stage in the unmanaged VPS build process will be documented, both with copy and video.
While the individual tutorials are more important, especially with the copy/paste code that makes setting up your VPS a cinch, the video should help by adding a visual reference of what's involved in each step.

Serve multi sites & blogs on a budget .. at the fastest possible speed .. with the least downtime .. in the most secure environment .. and future-proofed for easy admin.
That's what the VPS Bible is about, stepped out in simple copy & paste guides.
From high traffic WordPress blogs to startup web hosts, here's what you need.
Congratulations! You have one humdinger of a web server! If you followed the Bible to a T, it's speedy, solid & secure.
But. As explained in Part 16, the Nginx web server has no compatible control panel .. yet. Then again, even if it did, do you really want the resource drain?
In the VPS Admin series is every maintenance procedure you'll need to know. And, hey, using these is a darn sight faster than using a control panel anyhow.
