Wordpress hosting is expensive and overkill to do on AWS if you do it traditionalally.
Add simply static or a similar plugin, whip up a script to upload the static HTML to S3, set up Cloudfront with good cache, and you're done. Your site is faster, more secure, cheaper and can easily run on a t3.micro for peanuts.
Only gotcha is comments, but it's a solved problem ( disqus or any of the alternatives) and similar.
