Nginx Proxy Manager Apache HTTP Server

    I now run web servers in Docker using the NGINX Proxy Manager (also in a container) as the front end and just use a cheap domain name host (was using a DDNS provider for domain names but went to a static IP last year). Many many sites offer free domain names (normally as a 'third level' or subdomain of their name e.g. yoursite.dnsprovidersname.com etc).

  2. Apache httpd has been the most popular web server on the Internet since April 1996
    Pricing:

    I've run Apache / Lighttpd and NGINX on Pis before with no issues - Apache is the heaviest in disk / memory / cpu but that is normal TBH no matter what the chipset :-).
