Never hosted a site on a VPS and I have no skills/time to manage myself. So I searched a managed service and seems cloudways is the mainstream one.

Would like to test it.

I have some doubts:
Can I host how many sites I want on that VPS? How is the IP assigned once the server/hosting is setup?
I'm in EU country, which provider is the best for wordpress site? Vultr and DO are quite the same price...

Thank you guys

You have any ways to learn it, isn't hard to install a Control Panel to manage it, in Youtube you have many tutorials and videos and blogs also.
Is very easy to learn, you just need to learn and start about LAMP installation (learn that in youtube for example LAMP + Wordpress install vps ubuntu" you will have many videos showing how to do it.

Are you interested in learning? You have FREE videos in Youtube and Tutorials in Blogs for free, no costs! Just searching.

Are you interested to have better skills and knowing what you are doing without any control panel and start from zero?

Isn't expensive, is very good to learn they focus in give the best videos for you, you can learn with Udemy, isn't expensive.
If you want to have knowledge is easy, just start searching. You can't paid? Youtube, blogs is your choice for free and no costs.

To start using VPS is required and EXPECTED to have a little know-how / knowledge about it. Which isn't hard. But you have everything I gave to you.

Can I host how many sites I want on that VPS?
No one can answers that question just because you ask. Why? Because no one knows with traffic you have, how many websites you will host.
Are that websites heavy? new?

And also with Hardware you are thinking your VPS will have? RAM, CPU (Cores) availability? You can't ask that question without saying which vps you are looking for. Hardware is the most important thing.

But answer you can host Unlimited Websites on VPS, it always will relay on which hardware you VPS have. 1GB RAM is not enough for 2-3 websites unless is static and small HTML websites.

I'm in EU country, which provider is the best for wordpress site? Vultr and DO are quite the same price...
Both are great, but if I was you. I should go with DO, because of their blog have a lot of tutorials and guides..
Look, you can also learn for free here

That's why DO is better, also Vultr isn't bad. But DO for me, is a good to go Hosting Provider in EU.

@Deleted member 1393709 thanks for the resources you indicated.

I think I would have no problem installing wordpress on the VPS, I just DON'T want to deal with it. When there will be a problem I want a service to contact 24/7 and to solve it for me as fast as possible.

The time to learn EVERYTHING is a bit past for me, now I need to free up time and delegate as much as possible :)

Thank you
 
You said you have a managed VPS. So that means that you can contact your provider and ask them for help. And you are limited by size of your VPS and can host there as many sites as possible according to the limits.
Everything depends on the size of your sites. Sometimes a few powerful servers not enough for a sigle but huge site ;)

Then if you want managed VPS or Server

DO or VULTR isn't for you... since they are unmanaged. If you want a managed you will need to pay for it.
You said that you already have managed server, then you can ask them to do what you want.

If you want to move to DO or Vultr should be a good choice, but you will need to hire someone to manage your servers if you don't want to manage yourself.
 
Yes, you can test cloudways Vultr or DigitalOcean for an EU site. Cloudways provides reliable hosting services with good performance for EU locations.
 
You can directly host WP on DigitalOcean vps. It's very cheap like $5/m.

I purchased a DO account from here for 30 bucks with 1000$ credits for 2 years.
