This is literally like asking how to date women.
Read DigitalOcean tutorials and you will become a "pro" in a matter of days.
Edit2:
Avoid rm -rf and chargebacks.
$15/year women unmanaged
Youtube videos are your friend.
(and so are the Digital Ocean tutorials imok mentioned).
Only if you date a woman working in the IT field.
This is the only correct way.
Given the sig, smells like spam...
Don't! Just use "password" as root password, enable SSH and let the internet manage your VPS for free!
Don't forget to leave squid proxy open and install kloxo and WordPress with every dodgy looking plugin available.
But first, for good mounting need:

Excellent hint, but high-end pro stuff should be left for professionals with 2 days or more of linux experience.
How to manage wife?
Always use Debian. Thx.
False statement. The most used and easiest distro is CentOS 7.
Its like a server, you will notice if you did something wrong.
But sometimes, you do notice it to late and it wont come back up again.
So be careful on what you do and change.
Now seriously. I've been using Ubuntu and Linux Mint in my desktops for a while. Would it be easier to use CentOS than Debian? I currently run a Debian 9 and an Ubuntu 18.04 server.
I've used Linux Mint on the desktop for over a decade, previously Mandrake. I use both debian and CentOS on servers, though prefer CentOS - likely due to familiarity. Ubuntu server: uggh! :-p (Gimme good ol' NCR version of SVR4.2/AIX/HP_UX/Solaris.)
I loved Mandrake back in the day, it was a very big leap in user friendliness then. I was a big fan of Mint + MATE until I gave the new KDE a try a year or so ago and I use Kubuntu as my daily driver now. Looking at Manjaro again, tried it before Kubuntu and it was great, just decided to stick with the "comfort" of debian at the time.
On the server, it's either debian or ubuntu depending on the use, centos if necessary for cpanel etc.
Actually this is more like how to manage a wife. How to date women is nothing like when you upgrade the woman to a wife. It's like performing a dist-upgrade tothe latest and ggreatest version of the OS on an @eol OVZ6 template and expecting everything to magically work much better, only to realise SSHing into the bedroom suddenly doesn't work and when you lodge a chargeback, it's permanently declined.
which is why you never marry and fuck sl00ts instead

That should help.
Carefully
Which Centos distro is nice for desktop?
Ubuntu.
(They're all Linuxes, really).
Fedora is of the same family as RHEL/CentOS.
get a vps at a company that is always down and you don't make backups,
trust me you will see how fast you learn how to manage a vps. best lesson ever(maybe).
In your case -> just stick with debian (as you already know it and are used to it).
Both debian and CentOs are OK and none is really "better" (besides subjective preferences). But: Do not use Ubuntu on a server. Oh, and in case you want to go really hardcore and puristic -> slackware.
If you want stability and don't care that your software is a few years behind the times CentOs. If you want more bleeding edge Debian. If you are already familiar with Debian based systems just stick with Debian for servers.
Not losing something at least once a month because of a floppy disk failure really hinders kids these days from developing good backup habits.
