Wait, you can host a website on a raspberry pi !? But is it really cheaper than shared hosting, for instance? And even then, quality-wise, it cannot be that good, can it?
Same as a 4x CPU with 8GB ram VPS.
Unless bandwidth is a limiting factor.
But the quality of a website is about code. Not about hardwareYou see, bits sent from an x86 have 10% more antioxidants....
I had a website serve me oxidised bits. My computer BSODd and now I have herpes.
Need those antioxidants
My understanding is raspberrypi.com is hosted on raspberry pis. It's a Linux computer; it can do anything a Linux computer can do.
You can host a website on a lot less, even. But it entirely depends on what you're hosting and the load. Basically anything can host a bunch of static pages, so if your site is just that, basically anything will do. You could probably even do a WordPress site with the right caching plugins and serve a reasonable amount of traffic. The first limit you'll hit realistically is your uplink, not your webserver CPU.
You can definitely run a low traffic website with a Pi. You can run Minecraft Servers and such on Pis. Especially on Pi4s.
