Most WordPress sites do not need AWS. That is the short operational answer. If your site is a company website, blog, brochure site, local service site, small store, or agency-managed project with normal traffic, Amazon Cloud is usually more infrastructure than you need and more moving parts than you want.
The real question behind "Do you really need Amazon Cloud for your WordPress site?" is not whether AWS is good. It is. The better question is whether your WordPress workload actually benefits from that level of cloud complexity, billing structure, and operational overhead. Often, it does not.
