Hudson Valley Host - $6.75 512MB OpenVZ VPS in NYC

Jul 04, 2011 @ 12:40 pm

Happy Independence Day! Okay, 4^th of July is probably just another day for over 50% of LowEndBox readers, but Independence Day offers are surely coming in. Hudson Valley Host has previously ran promo on for Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Memorial Day and possibly many others. So not surprisingly, they are now offering Independence Day promo with 55% off recurring discount on their regular VPS plans (promo code july4th55), and 20% off recurring discount on their budget VPS plans (promo code july4th20). The ever increasing discount on their regular VPS plans means “Beginner” would be inside my listing criteria this time at $6.75/month. Direct sign up link with promo code pre-filled.

512MB guaranteed/1024MB burstable memory
30GB storage
750GB/month data transfer
2 IP addresses

  If the old and new VPS are the same OS version, then its possible to fsync the VPSs.

i’ve been with them for couple of months now. support is good enough for me because i dont need sophisticated support, except that i need unusual iptables modules.
i never notice major downtime, but i’m not sure that i’m at burstnet because they said my vps at washington.

below is some stats:

I wish they had a 128 MB VPS for $15 a year, I’d buy one for sure!

  Did you check spotvps.com? They offer 128 MB VPS for $15 a year

    I need it to be in NYC… That’s like the only reason for even going for a VPS in my situation.

      Have you checked out AlienVPS? For $19/year they offer a VPS with 192MB RAM.
