As you already know, i moved on a Virtual Private Server the other day. The quest on finding something to fit my needs was not very easy. When i say “needs” i mean cheap but reliable hosting with total control over the server and as much as i can get for my money. I had a couple of failures (yes i payed $8 for a crappy service that was down about 80% of the two days i tried it out) but finally i found VPSLink.com. Those guys are excellent! They have very affordable plans. Moreover, when they say instant setup they mean it! Here is a more detailed list of what i think are the highlights of their service:
- Their plans start from as low as $7!
- What amazed me the most was the instant setup. I signed up, payed and immediately i was emailed login details for the control panel. When i logged in i had my dedicated IP address and there was an option “Install OS”. After issuing an installation command for my debian, 5 minutes later my server was up and running! Amazing! From signup to root access i would say that it took me 15-20 mins.
- No glitches whatsoever. Great bandwidth. I downloaded my data from the other server with over 1.7Mb/s!
- Their control panel is extremely simple and has all the info you need.
- Haven’t tried their customer support yet but isn’t that a good sign? 🙂
I am telling you guys. If you want a cheap VPS, VPSLink is the way to go. Now, on the link to their site i have my referral code. If you are kind enough let it be there. Moreover, if you sign up with my referral code you will get a lifetime 10% off! So, let me know if you try them out and tell me what you think!
I’ll give them a shot 😀
well they are worth it definitely… you won’t be disappointed 😉
Wow, I checked their site, and they’ve got some pretty impressive servers (and cheap ones too!).
I don’t need a VPS for now (can barely get 10GB of bandwidth) but I will keep them in mind for the future!
Same here, I think* my blog loads fast enough for a simple webhost 😉
*opinions accepted 😛
true… your speed is fine… but if your needs grow sometime then definitely consider them… they have a great service!
aaha…….nice website dude…will be useful I need VPS at any moment in future……..
Well stratosg, you probably do know my situation-a VPS doesn’t suit me any more 😛
In the past I’ve used JaguarPC.com (VERY good company) and VPSLand.com (they totally suck). In case I need a VPS again I’ll consider looking into VPSLink’s offers. They’ve got good prices I must say. 😀
they were among my choices but i read somewhere some nasty stuff about them in contrary with vpslink where everyone had something nice to say about them. anyway if you need sometime definitely worth a check…
Why did you go for VPS? What other projects are you running? 🙄
@Ashfame: well you can check all my activities on http://www.stratosector.net
i run quite many stuff, own about six domains and generally need something more “powerful” than shared hosting…
