[mariyawu1683]

1. Log in or create
   
   an Alibaba Cloud account.
2. Go to the Alibaba Cloud console > Elastic Computer Service (in the left navigation bar).
3. Click Instances, and then click the Create Instance button in the top right corner of the screen.
4. Select one of the two pricing models
   
   :
   Pay-As-You-Go costs more per hour, but if you choose this model, you are billed per hour and can cancel at any time. This pricing model allows you to try out Plesk on Alibaba cheaply, but is not well-suited for hosting.Subscription is cheaper in the long run, but requires prepayment and monthly commitment. If you decide that Plesk on Alibaba is right for you, we recommend using this model for web hosting.
5. Select the datacenter region and zone
   
   . If you plan to host small business websites, we recommend choosing the data center region and zone closest to their geographic location to decrease page load times for local visitors.
6. Select the Instance Type.When choosing the ECS instance
   
   to deploy Plesk on, pay attention to the amount of RAM it comes with. The more websites you intend to host, and the more traffic the hosted websites generate, the more RAM you will need. Refer to the Plesk System Requirements
   
   to estimate the amount of RAM your setup will require.If you are not sure which instance to choose, we recommend starting with the ecs.n1.tiny instance and upgrading it later, if necessary. Note that only the Subscription pricing model
   
   supports instance upgrade.
7. Set "Network Bandwidth Peak" to "0 M" to have the option to later bind an Elastic IP address to your instance. An Elastic IP address is a public IP address assigned to your instance that does not change every time the instance is restarted. Having a constant public IP address is required for web hosting.
8. Under "Choose the Operating System", select the Marketplace Image tab.
9. Type plesk in the "Search in all products" field and click the magnifying glass icon.
10. Under "Choose Storage", we recommend selecting SSD Cloud Disk
    
    for your website hosting and adding at least one Ultra Cloud Disk
    
    or Basic Cloud Disk
    
    for storing backups.
11. Under "Security Settings", set the authentication method for your instance (password or key-based authentication).
12. Under "Purchase Plan", specify the number of instances you want to purchase and, if necessary, the instance name.
13. Click Buy Now, and then click Activate.
14. When the instance has been successfully activated, you can see it in the Alibaba Cloud console (Elastic Computer Service > Instances > click the data center region you specified during purchase).
15. Purchase and bind an Elastic IP address
    
    .

Your instance is now up and running. To begin using Plesk, you need to perform a short post-install configuration.
