I'm shopping for a new VPS host and have looked at quite a large number of them now. I notice there are a small few who offer large amounts of resources/features for a very reasonable price. However I'm always worried about the, "you get what you pay for" factor. For instance: http://holdfire.com got some pretty decent reviews on http://hostjury.com/reviews/Holdfire+Network, except for a couple outdated very bad reviews. They offer a base plan for VPS that blows my mind: http://holdfire.net/vps/ basically 1.5ghz cpu + 1gb RAM + 1000gb bandwidth all for $15 unmanaged. While on the flip side, there are hosts such as http://www.hawkhost.com/VPS/compare, or http://www.geekstorage.com/gs/service/vps/compare who offer VPS plans starting at about $30-$40 for roughly 384mb RAM and maybe 200-300gb bandwith. Now, has anyone experienced a "too good to be true" host with success? In that even though the cost was cheap and the resources were very high you didn't get screwed and it all worked wonderfully? I'd like to hear some opinions on if the hosts that offer a lot for very little are reliable as apposed to hosts that offer just enough for almost a little too much money. Thanks all!
I did happend to me when i buy windows vps for $10/month for 512RAM 10G/100G from our DP member. After few more days,the server down and its hard to get respond from seller.
well good to buy Hosting service from reputed hosting company rather than DP members. I came across some good one too. Westhost offer VPs for less price. Down side: they don't support Video hosting, There server Software are pretty old and no update and strict CPu usage limitation. Host.co.in: They are so good to me little higher price than Westhost range in $20 i suppose. They have very good customer support and they install server Software free for you. Up on my request they installed ffmpeg for me @ free of cost they to have CPU limitation they say thay server is shared between 10 to 15, ask them for numbers and you can use max of 18% of CPU.
