Set Up a Owncast Server on Hetzner in Under 10 Minutes
Need a quick and affordable way to stream with Owncast? In this video, I'll show you how easy it is to set up your own Owncast server on Hetzner in less than 10 minutes.
First, you'll need to sign up for a Hetzner account and click "Add Server" to launch a new instance. I'll walk through selecting your server configuration, location, and price plan starting at just $7.55 per month.
Once launched, the server will be ready in just a few minutes. I'll show you how to log in via SSH and install Owncast with just a single click. From there, it's time to configure your domain and secure it with Let's Encrypt certificates.
Don't forget to generate a new stream key for your software like OBS. With those few simple steps, your Owncast server will be up and running at your custom domain name in under 10 minutes. I'll demo logging into the Owncast admin dashboard and explain next steps to customize your streams.
So if you need an affordable Owncast solution quickly, follow along to set up your own server on Hetzner in under 10 minutes. No long-term commitments or costly plans required. Let me know if you have any other questions!
