How to Install Nginx on Oracle Ampere and Host WordPress
In this video, I'll show you how to install and configure Nginx on Oracle Cloud's free ARM instance and use it to host a WordPress site — no control panel needed.
We're skipping the third-party panels and doing everything manually, so you'll actually understand what's running on your server.
What we cover:
Connecting to your Oracle ARM instance via SSH
Installing Nginx, MariaDB, and PHP-FPM
Downloading and configuring WordPress
Setting up your Nginx server block
Opening ports on Oracle Cloud and your instance firewall
Adding a free SSL certificate with Certbot
Oracle Cloud's free ARM tier gives you a surprisingly capable server at zero cost. This setup runs WordPress cleanly without paying for hosting or handing control to a panel.
