Is this will be good for a post outside?

Depends. I don't think it would be. I bought them for my porch light which has candelabra bulbs in it currently...and these lightbulbs are tiny, even though the base was the right size the bulb was much smaller. They would be good for like plug-in candles that use light bulbs. They also don't put off hardly any light at all.

What is the diameter of the bulb itself?

1 cm at the base and 2.06 cm in the widest part of the bulb. The bulbs do not last long at all though.

Why is the life of these bulbs short. They only lasted approx 2 months at max.

I really don't know. Mine I having been using for over 2 months but of course I only turn them on at night for about 7 or hours at a time. I guess life expectancy of the bulbs is based on amount of use.

How big around is the base? My porch lights have pretty small bases.

The screw base portion on these bulbs is approx 1/2 inch diameter across
