Website Technical Specifications
Technical Specifications and other data.
This website was made using WordPress and is currently hosted on a $5 Virtual Private Server through AWS Lightsail. Recently, I transferred my domain management to Cloudflare, providing the website with additional security and a free CDN. The site operates on a custom theme I developed a few years ago, designed with simplicity in mind to emphasize the creation of valuable content.
I have been considering a complete redevelopment of my website for some time now; it is in need of a significant overhaul and update. In terms of tech I am torn between Astro, NextJs or maybe continue using WordPress.

Why dont you run ads on your webbsite?
btw i loved your html, css, js, express, nodejs and mongodb tutorial. Next time add comments to the blog-
I doubt that I will get much from it ads, but it could be a good way to generate some revenue… My main worry is that it could make look the website look spammy. In fairness most blogs do have ads… I could do an experiment for a month or two to see what happens.
I am glad to hear that you love the tutorials. There should be a comment section under each post, but not a global one for blogs. That’s something I could add when I re-design it one day
