Forget Tor.
Get yourself a cloud account that does DNS hosting and VMs— AWS, Azure or GCP.
Run the cheapest VM instance and use Linux, nginx and letsencrypt. Set up a cron job to renew the cert every day. It will only renew if within 15 days of expiry, so it can run daily no issues.
Use the cloud DNS servers. Point the A record at your instance. Set the instance to auto-update the OS.
If I get a cloud account then that's a eat to get shut down.

If I get a cloud account then that's a way to get shutdown. I think I understand what you are trying to do and I do have a dynamic DNS service if needed.

Unless you route those packets yourself, there is always a vendor who has the ability to cut you off; such is the nature of the internet.
What are you doing that there is a risk you will be shut down?
I have never heard of an AWS account getting shut down if they continued to pay for the service.

I'm writing. So that's it. I've had websites since 1997 and I've had to bounce all over the place as service goes from good to shit.
Geocities, then Yahoo, then GoDaddy, then in motion, then WordPress, then Blogger, then Google and I've room Apache sometimes at home. So historically the vendor always goes from good to bad.
I'm going to host from my crib. StartOS has Ghost over Tor and I'm going to play with that. I'd like to have clearnet, too.
I'm certainly not the smartest guy regarding this. Sometimes the obvious befuddles me and the difficult seems easy.
I appreciate your feedback.
