I want to start a new project and i need a good and cheap shared hosting, i started using Hostgator, tmdhosting, bluehost. but those hosting is crap, now im using Amazon Lightsail for my main site but i need a very good shared hosting for my clients mostly it will be for blogs, portfolio websites.
Sorry for my bad english.

BuyShared for sure! Fran rocks!
Location?
Im located in the Caribbean that means US EAST server it would be perfect
Thanks! It looks interesting, I will put it on the list of options, although I expect more opinions from other users.
How much resources do you need? Maybe we can help?
Lightsail is ok for some simple sites but if you want to use the entire cpu/io to the max, you won't be able to. They put some limit on it. You can try to test it and you will see.
What do you suggest for alternative of lightsail ?
Since Lightsail is not the same with EC2, it is best to go for Linode. We tested this and it is better compared to Lightsail.
We are the best sir.
Perfect, but I really want to host multiple customer sites; Wordpress-based portfolios and blogs for about 20 clients.
You can try buyshared, hawk host
from which result you came onto this conclusion that lightsail is not a cloud ? i thought lightsail was a aws's VPS
edit : btw glad to see you here
I should have more clear on it. Lightsail is more of a basic cloud to be able to compete with Linode and others and so this is why they put some limit on it. It is not the same as EC2. Maybe this will give you more details about it: https://www.karoly.io/amazon-lightsail-review-2018/
Lightsail is a VPS product that Amazon offer to compete in the lower-priced VPS market. Apparently, Lightsail VPSes are EC2 instances, more specifically, T2 instances
(See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40927189/what-is-difference-between-lightsail-and-ec2 )
This said, yes, Lightsail is CPU-limited in a way that a veritable EC2 server is not. But Lightsail is also a much less expensive product
