    I hosted some websites in DigitalOcean. According to my experience, DigitalOcean is a good place to host because dynamic bandwidth and space allocation. You don't need cPanl for hosting. First buy $5 one and if it's not enough allocate more space and bandwidth.

    Use Digital ocean with Easy Engine bro. Really easy to install and configure. You can create LEMP stack easily bro. Use their resizable plan bro. Then you can easily adjust the droplet size (RAM, CPU) without any hassle.

    I do hosting DO with Easy engine. Easy Engine will install WordPress, PHP, Nginx, MYSQL, PageSpeed Mod, PHPMyAdmin, etc just a single command line. You have to separately install CSF, Fail2Ban etc securty mods. Easy Engine work with Ubuntu OS.

    Yes free version. AFAIK there's no premium version. They only have premium support service.

    I don't have any linux knowledge. I don't even know how to manage VPS. But after I read digital ocean tutorial I managed to setup VPS. Machan DO has plenty of tutorials to install Security mods, etc useful thing.

    Machan after installed everything chamge the SSH port to non standard level. Such as 2299 or 2200. Also install CSF and Fail2Ban and configure them. CSF default settings Ok. But fails2ban need some confirmation.

    I use WinSCP for access VPS. Because its more easier than Putty ssh.
