SlickStack is a fun and easy way to launch WordPress cloud servers.

SlickStack is a modern LEMP-based server script designed for running a single WordPress site on an ultra-light VPS, with a focus on technical SEO, automation, and hardening best practices. Written entirely in Bash, it replaces control panels with simple shell scripts and includes powerful cron jobs for system health, backups, and performance. You can browse the full list of SlickStack server requirements, explore common topics in the Docs, or dive into the SlickStack Forums to ask questions or share feedback. For details on the latest updates and fixes, visit the changelog, and if you're just getting started, follow our installation guide to launch your first server in minutes.

Newbie-friendly! Just run this shell command and follow the 5-minute wizard:
