Any nice playbook or tutorial to host a static website from home?

I wanted to know if there was a neat playbook or tutorial set that one can refer to if they're trying to set up their own static website from home?

So far I have done the following:

  1. Got a raspberypi (Raspberry Pi 2 Zero W) and raspberrypi OS installed with fail2ban ready.
  2. Installed nginx (I have not configured anything there).
  3. Written the HTML and CSS files for the website.
  4. Purchased a domain.

How do I complete the remain pieces of this puzzle?

My purpose: I want an online profile that I can share with my colleagues and clients instead of relying on LinkedIn as a way to connect. Eventually, I will stop posting on LinkedIn and make this my main method of relaying information and disseminating my works and services.

Domain registrars ask a bit too much info, right?

I am in the EU and wanted to buy my first domain here. I wanted to play around with making a website, hosting etc.

So I went to sites like Netim, namecheap, and porkbun. I found that they ask for my name, phone number, and address.

I'm not sure if I can make crap up there and register. I am using a temporary digital /virtual card, so I won't have too much trouble on that front.

How to upload articles and pdfs to SciHub?

A few months ago, I was between jobs and had to write a grant proposal. I didn't have access to a few of publications and to my horror, I found that most of the recent works weren't on Sci-Hub. Luckily a couple of old friends helped me out with getting those articles.

Now that I have a job and institutional access, I want to upload articles to Sci-Hub, or at least send it to someone who can inspect my documents, check that they're OK, and then put them on the server.

I am currently sitting in about 140-odd articles that I know aren't on Sci-Hub. I know that wosonjh (or whatever that name is) is a forum where one can upload requested articles, but from what I understand, that doesn't feed into Sci-Hub's repository.

Can someone please help me?
