Hanging Flowers

Hello! I love the idea of hanging a plant at my front door, but have not had much luck. Each summer I spend money on a hanging basket only for the flowers to die within a couple of weeks despite watering and attention. This area gets a lot of direct sun, and I wonder if the house’s white vinyl siding even intensifies the heat. Is there a type of flower that can withstand this level of sun? Is it something I’m doing wrong? Thanks for your help.
