Does the Articles, Tutorials, Help & Community enough?

Posted on August 28, 2013

Hello,

I’m new here. Personally, I’ve never experienced un-managed server. My purpose is to have a place to host my sites such as Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal, and other similar site types. I just need to host the sites with email account, ftp, database, and everything that the Shared Hosting environment have.

I wonder does DO has enough information to guide me from a fresh start to the hardening one? I’m willing to take time to read and learn.

Thanks!
