I am just about to click the purchase button on a VPS plan, and though I should run it by you all first. I found a coupon that gave me 55% off of an entire order and so this VPS: 512MB RAM, 50GB Raid-10 Storage, 1000GB Bandwidth come out to just over $19 a month. Its with HostTV. Good?
it's $19 before the 55% off? Or after? I've never heard of the company so I can't comment on their services but it could be good, the bandwidth and space may look to be oversold a little bit but you'd have to look at their overall server costs and how many people they are placing there.
So that is without the coupon more than $40. Is it recurring or is it on your first order only? I assume it's on the first order only. I think it's a good plan if you compare it with other companies. I hope they offer a money back guarantee? If it is yes I would say buy if you can afford and monetize.
Thanks yall for the quick replies. I did it. It was only on the first order so i locked it down for 12 months. They have a 30 day money back guarantee, and i heard if what you bought isnt what you got paypal will get your money back within 60 days.
If the servers and connection are fast, that is a good price for that plan. What is the coupon, pray tell?
I think you can do the search for their domain name to find more reviews. As for me the price they offer looks reasonable.
The thing with VPSes is you'll probably hit up against the memory first before anything else. I know I can do a lot with 512megs. You may want to give this a read on how to reduce memory usage as a start: http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/yes-you-can-run-18-static-sites-on-a-64mb-link-1-vps/
I never heard of that company? i would do more research on them or just find a more trusted provider. you should go check out review sites they have alot of valuable information, like webhostingsimple.com , webhostinggeeks.com , or webhostingchoice.com
If it's only for the first month then it might be true. Just make sure you read the terms in case that the money back guarantee not valid for promotional coupon.
Look at all those affiliate links on those pages. Nothing but advertisers from CJ. [sarcasm]I'm sure those three sites provide honest and non bias reviews and the amount of commission has nothing to do with their rankings[/sarcasm]
I have my tube site with HostV as they had everything setup for my script I use on the site. The support is very responsive and friendly. Also I haven't noticed any down times.
Why take the chance? I would stick with VPS from HostGator because then you are guaranteed reliability and good customer service.
