Should check out Racknerd. I've got a 4 core, 4 gb ram, 50 gb disk VPS for $50/yr.

Thanks for the tip I'll definitely take a look! That's not bad at all and I prefer yearly payments.

Could you link the page which shows your exact config at that price? I can't find anything like that. KVM, AMD, Windows VPS - I looked at all three but none suggest the price you've written.

That price sounds like a steal, and I'd love to get it if possible. I currently pay $6/month per VPS with Digital Ocean

Another good site for VPS deals is https://www.lowendbox.com/ . I've used them to find the RackNerd deals and also I've got a storage VPS I use for off-site backup that's stupidly cheap with another provider.

That's crazy helpful - thanks!

[–] ABasilPlant@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Perfect, thanks a million! I'll be getting on them soon!

These deals are still active https://www.racknerd.com/BlackFriday/

Also tagging @h0bbl3s@lemmy.world since I should have linked this last night.

Been using racknerd to host my tiny stupid websites for a couple years, it's great value for money and a fantastic way to learn sysadmin stuff. I also appreciate that they give a lot of heads up for auto-renewal and don't escalate pricing on renewal.
