Hi, the most (cost-) efficient way to start such a web site is to use Amazon LightSail: https://aws.amazon.com/lightsail/
It's a managed solution where most of the "heavyweight lifting" (deployment, patching, monitoring) is done for you by AWS. You can focus more on the dev of your website itself.
And you can switch to native EC2if at some point you want to take the full thing back under your control: From FAQ https://aws.amazon.com/lightsail/features/
Upgrade to EC2
As your cloud ideas expand, you can easily move to EC2 with a simple, guided
experience. With this feature, Lightsail offers you the comfort of knowing that
as you grow your website or application we can help you scale in a way that fits
your needs.
Upgrading is simple, you’ll take a snapshot of your instance and follow the
step-by-step process in the Lightsail console to export your snapshot to EC2.
You can then use the Upgrade to EC2 wizard to get your new EC2 instance up
and running.
Best,
Didier
