How to set up a node.js production server

One of the biggest problems I had when learning node was figuring out how to get a production server up and running. Coming from a PHP background, I was used to just installing a LAMP stack on an Ubuntu server and then uploading PHP files to the directory specified in Apache. Because node runs the server itself, the process for setting up a server is a bit different, so I’m going to try to create a step by step list of my process for doing it.
