Need help - questions about website Hosting and Learning Management System(LMS)

I am starting a website where education is offered for free. I will be having courses on various subjects for students from 5th to 10th grades.

I am starting with adding a lot of software courses. Apart from my website, I will be adding all of the courses on youtube too.

Here are my questions:

1- What kind of hosting is recommended? I am sure shared hosting services like hostgator, or hostgator cloud hosting will not be enough.
Could you recommend good hosting services that I should go for.

2- Since I will be hosting all the videos on youtube, can I just embed the videos on my site? Or should I host the videos separately on AWS or any other video hosting platform?

3- If I host the videos on youtube and embed them on my website, when a user watches the videos, will that be added towards the bandwidth on my server, or will it be considered as bandwidth from youtube?

4- I am looking for some good Learning Management System(LMS) plugins for wordpress. Can you please recommend some good LMS plugin. Cost is not a big issue. I want to have a company that lasts long(seems to) and gives good support.

    TMD Hosting has a VPS service that you could check out, they have a lot of options that might fit what you're looking for.

    Hey there,

    I've built numerous sites using Bluehost, Wordpress, Woocommerce and LearnDash.

    I've found after much trial and error that the above combination works the best. I also use the paid Astra theme with Elementor Pro for site design.

    Average around $8k/mth of sales and 1,000 active users. No probelms with up time or student management.

    Hope that helps.

    WPengine [dot] com is what a lot of people use. Contact them and ask all of your questions. Nothing better then getting your answers directly from a reliable host.
