Hey everyone, im looking into installing Discourse through a GoDaddy hosting:  
[https://www.godaddy.com/pro/one-click-installation/discourse?countryview=1](https://www.godaddy.com/pro/one-click-installation/discourse?countryview=1)

I already have GoDaddy’s service hired for email and Webflow webpage hosting and wanted an expert and user opinion on implementing this install. Every input would be appreciated, i already know using digital ocean would be a more accurate choice, but i want to give it a try and optimize already allocated resources.

The general idea would be to implement Discourse’s forum platform as a sub-domain to my already existing Webflow webpage (Hosted by GoDaddy). Im sorry in advance if i have some concept errors, not my field of expertise.
