I think we’re breaking new ground here.
We’re famous for our $1-a- month VPS page…but how about $1-a-month with by-the-hour pricing!
Meet HostVDS. They’re a LowEndTalk Patron Provider who has a pretty amazing offer:
- Get a 1GB RAM VPS with 50MBps
- Start with a 10GB OS volume and expand with elastic storage as needed
- Available in Moscow, RU – Dallas, TX – Silicon Valley, CA
- And soon in NL, FR, SG, IN, HK, ZA
- $1/Month
- …or pay $0.00133 per hour!
I did the math, and a dime (ten cents, or $0.10) will get you about 75 hours of run time.
Of course there are bigger plans (and these get better bandwidth).
They posted about their service on LowEndTalk, and updated the thread this morning with news of their network expansion and plans. They’re still adding features so check the thread or post a question if you want to know more.
If you do decide to give HostVDS a try, please comment below on your experience!
