Buying Cheap Windows Server 2008 VPS

    Looking for a cheap Windows Server 2008 VPS. Looking to spend as little as possible, since this will only be used occasionally for SEO purposes. Server 2003 might be OK as well.

    Post here or send me a PM with what you have.

    Thanks!

    What kind of specs are you looking for? Do you have a budget in mind? What about location?

    Don't care much about specs. I'm honestly not even going to be hosting anything, I just need a remote desktop account to use for legitimate SEO purposes. (need to be able to run Firefox and install 1 program)

    Since I'm only going to be using this a few times a month, I'm looking to spend the bare minimum. $15 or less would be nice. (I understand Windows license = more $$)

    I've also thought about switching my current VPS to a dedicated Windows machine, and just running a VM myself. (that way I could use windows and ubuntu (host VM) on a single box)

    Hi, if you don't need the windows 2008, don't get it. Windows 2008 has a higher memory and storage requirement than 2003 does so it will be more economical to say that you are looking for windows 2003 with lower memory requirement.

    Very true, and a good point.

    I am open to Windows Server 2003 offers as well. Do you have any cheaper packages than the ones listed on your website? If so, hit me up with a PM.
