Updated February 2011: VPS Squad and its sister site VPS Under 5 Dollars both disappear off the Internet on 19 February 2011. The business has already cancelled its registration and I don’t think they are coming back. FAIL.
Josh from VPS Under 5 Dollars/VPS Squad emailed me about their special offer — VPS under 20 Dollars per Year! Here is what you can get for $20/year:
- 128MB guaranteed/256MB burstable memory
- 5GB storage
- 50GB/month data transfer
- OpenVZ/SolusVM
That’s equivalent to $1.67/month. You can choose from either Kansas City MO (only 8 available — sign up link), Germany (only 10 available — sign up link) or Denver CO (only 6 vailable — sign up link). They seem to be buying servers from all over the place, as the locations are different from their last month’s feature here. VPS Under 5 Dollars runs by the same guys behind VPS Squad which has been known as AMH Network before (assuming they haven’t changed hands). Australia-based business.

test i.p for Kansas and Denver please?
Compared with $15/year offerings from BuyVM and YardVPS, this one seems a bit lower on data transfer, right?
Quite a bit lower I’d say, 10 times lower.
Yes. That makes the difference between a low traffic blog site and a low traffic image site.
Is IRC allowed?
From the website: “IRC clients are only possible in Denver and Netherlands but no IRC Servers”.
TAP/TUN device is avalible?
Yeah, tun/tap enabled after filing a support ticket… got the response it had been enabled within the hour.. was quite impressed.
Its a great little openvpn/small dev server!
