They're not a tech support company or a hosting company. There are literally thousands and thousands of documents on basic web server installation and configuration already written. The information is trivial to find. It falls under "if you have to ask, you're not ready".

Have you actually run a hidden service before?

Running a default or standard configuration of the bigger web servers like Apache or NGINX is a terrible idea if you're actually trying to hide the identity of your server. Setting up a secure hidden service usually requires that several default or common features be disabled, if one actually wants to hide the location of the service.

...can you link some details on how we should actually configure this? Because the answer to your question is "No" but I'm sure a good many of the people here would like to be able to say yes.
