    I posted it out just my good intentions, if there is any misunderstanding, please delete the post..

    I am not a senior person to pay attention to various ISP / service providers.

    I don't know what the relationship between this member and ICDSOFT.

    btw, is there a problem with this supplier?

    Heh, smells like shit. OP's insistence on typing the name in all caps is hilarious.

    No it is just that WSS is a famous person here on Low End Talk and he had recommended them in the past. I was just asking if you were him as a joke.

  • Unwritten rule of LET. You do not JOIN LET and then posting some promotional offers. Just don't. It's Forbidden. BIG BIG NO.

    Unless You have a provider tag.

    Dude is posting a deal he found for a very old, reputable provider. I don't see anyone jumping down the throats of people that share namecheap or porkbun coupons. And I'm not sensing any malicious intent here. Keep doing your thing, @alvin, and thanks for sharing the deal you found!

  • donlidonli Member

    Ok, went for the Business Hosting with 100 GB SSD for $ 1.20/first year.
    Paid with Paypal and received server login info within a few minutes.
    And they didn't even create an automatic subscription on Paypal that I had to cancel.

    So thanks alvin (and WSS).

    would be interesting how much ram/io they allocate. For example, with this plan can you install nextcloud?

    yeah , those come in the cp list but may not work well if the host is allocating small amount of RAM... if you have time, give it a try and see if you can install and upload something and check the overall performance. - Thanks in advance -

    My gut feeling is that the he's not shilling, just one of those 'alpharacks pricing tier deal hunters', considering where the company is based and how long they've been around

    They are based in Hong Kong apparently.

    Yeah, someone can feel free to prove me wrong but I mean.. it's a loss leader, not a summer host, good for at least a year and you're likely to at least not lose service during that year. I'd try it myself if I had a need for php hosting..

    This is LET we don't buy things because we need them, we buy them because they're really cheap and let them idle.

    Everybody keeps looking at shared hosting, but look at VPS, managed VPS with high specs.

    For VPSs the promotional price is only good for 1 month

    The promotional discount of 99% is valid for the first month.

    For $ 2.99 1st month:

    High performance managed VPS
    Dedicated CPU - 2 cores @ 2.3 GHz
    Dedicated RAM - 8 GB
    Disk Storage - 200 GB
    Data Transfer - 5000 GB/MO

    For $ 9.99 1st month:

    High performance managed VPS
    Dedicated CPU - 8 cores @ 2.3 GHz
    Dedicated RAM - 32 GB
    Disk Storage - 1024 GB
    Data Transfer - 20000 GB/MO

  • I've been using this provider for some small personal websites for about 10 years. They are rock solid and answer tickets within 10 minutes or less. I was excited to see this discount but for just a year doesn't matter to me. I have a refeller account and have my own basic account basically just to park a domain and then a business site whose renewal is a bit cheaper due to that.

    In the very beginning they let me do more things with the server space but the slowly cut features (they used to have Ruby env on there way back in the day)

    What ended up sucking is that even though it was a small business 1gb storage is nothing so I had to update, 8 dollars a month is a lot for a tiny site like that. Despite the reliability and good memories :)

    I am looking to migrate to a new provider next year when my payment is up - any suggestions? I need one very low traffic business website but with decent space for pictures + wordpress, and a place to park my domain and play with random sites, maybe small local business pages, for me. Don't think I should have to pay 50 a year for all this, and as long as the other business domain is under my account I can merge them.

    Do you think we'll see any better black friday deals? I am paid up for a year. I guess at that price I may as well pick one up though.

    Every couple of months HostMantis offers a 80% off coupon on their twitter (there's a continual 70% off there). If you need a reasonable amount of space (like 15 GB) it's the best deal I've found recurring for low traffic hosting. Just get one a couple of months before your current one expires so you can copy your site over and try it out for a bit to see if you like it before you have to move.

    How much space do you need for the sites you want to move?
