Two SSL-Enabled WordPress Sites on one EC2 Instance with Docker (pt.1)
When I created this site, I wanted to make sure that I could run a segregated technical blog away from the human site, as well as enable HTTPS for security. This 2 part article will walk you through how to run 2 SSL-Enabled WordPress installations on a single server with Docker, using LetEncrypt for certification, and Nginx as a reverse proxy.
A Reverse Proxy?! I decided that the technical blog should be WordPress, and whilst I decided how the main site would be implemented, I should also put a WordPress installation in place there too.

AWS EC2 Hosting with Namecheap Domain Registration
I started this project as a way to learn new skills with modern web technology. This post walks you through how to set up a new domain and get it pointing to your new host. I’m going to assume you have a semi-technical background.
I would recommend setting up your hosting solution first, as you need something to point to once your domain is set up. I chose AWS EC2 as I wanted something cloud based and fast to spin up that allowed me to experiment with Docker.
