    I want to buy a VPS but the question for me is: "How to monetize a VPS?" Money is no problem for me but max $15/mo. But I want to make profit like everyone else. I got banned from Adsense and I want to receive money by PayPal. I use Bidvertiser at the moment.
    Please give me some tips & tricks!

    YOu should not try to monetize from a VPS. You need a reseller account separately.

    A VPS place you as responsibilty, yes you can make money by selling mini plans. But the problem is, if your user spam, do something unethical, your host will shut you down and you may have to refund your vps users and lose your own vps.

    A reseller account is you just act as a reseller of a product, if the user do something, or mess up, the host deal with them. You just make the money without worry about the support or being shut down. Hosting is a tricky business. You need technical skills else do a reseller.

    It's not for reselling, it's for a proxy and a RapidShare Premium Link Generator. I have knowledge in hosting but not really in SEO and make any profit. I made some online but it wasn't much.
