Welcome, Enwebhost!

They’re a French company that has some interesting deals in their Chicago, US location on cheap VPS systems with unlimited bandwidth:

• 1GB VPS for $1/mo for the first 3 months, then $5/month after that
• 2GB VPS for $2/mo for the first 3 months, then $10/month after that
• 4GB VPS for $5/mo for the first 3 months, then…well, you get the idea

These are all Xen virtualization.  At these prices, I’d assume paravirt but if it matters to you, you should definitely clarify before purchase.

They’re running on Hudson Valley Host/Colocrossing (based on a whois of their test IP), so no ipv6.  The name is new to me, but they say they have nearly a decade of experience which is roughly the time their domain was registered.  If you like to go down less-trodden paths or like to try new things, then we’ll be especially grateful for any guidance and feedback in the comments below!

Their WHOIS is public. They are registered in France. Their Terms of Service is available on their web site. They accept Credit Card, PayPal, Bitcoin.
