The Web Server Install

Greenfield install of one web server — Caddy, Nginx, or Apache — on a fresh server, with automated HTTPS, security headers, and a basic reverse proxy configured.

We install and configure one web server of your choice — Caddy, Nginx, or Apache — on a fresh server with no prior web-serving setup. HTTPS is automated (Let's Encrypt for Nginx and Apache, or Caddy's built-in automatic TLS), security headers are set, a basic reverse-proxy configuration is put in place, rate limiting is applied, and log rotation is configured so logs don't grow unbounded. This is a greenfield build: a server that doesn't already have a working web server on it. If you're replacing an existing setup with a different server software, that's a different service — The Web Server Migration — since migrating a live configuration carries different risks than a clean install. The install is done by staff certified per server software, using the same build patterns across engagements, and you get a working, TLS-secured server at handover, not just a package installed.

FAQ

How fast is delivery?
Standard delivery is within 20 weekday hours (≈ 2 working days). Express delivery — within 12 weekday hours — costs 25% more.
Is this the same as migrating our existing web server?
No — this is a greenfield install on a server with no existing web server configuration. Moving a live setup from one server software to another is The Web Server Migration, a separate service with its own rollback planning.
Which server software should we choose?
That's your call — Caddy, Nginx, and Apache are all supported and staff are certified per server. Caddy is typically the simplest to configure and includes automatic HTTPS out of the box; Nginx and Apache suit teams standardizing on existing tooling.
Does this cover multiple domains?
The base install covers one server configuration. Additional domains configured on top are scoped separately.
