    When someone is getting big overnight like this, nothing good comes out of it. Hostdoc anyone?

    Nothing against you, but it's clearly unsustainable, and it's on LET. All kind of nasty cheapskate client will ruin your business. That's how LET. They see cheap clearly unsustainable offer, they go in, and buy a bunch of it, and abuse it to the abyss.

    Thanks, but we operate bit OpenStack cloud in Russia, it is thousands of instances, and we have many nodes in reserve. So we are not just "1 rack" hosting :). Do not worry about it.

    Nailed it. You don't get big overnight on LET without a problem. I said it then, I said it again. LET member will abuse the shit out of your server unless you either rise the price, or more selective on accepting customer.

    The provider should just impose a $3 minimum on fund-add. Saves everyone grief.

    Raising prices would take away the reason why this offer is so populer as there are many providers with a russian location.

    And if they do not raise the price then the provider itself will disappear soon.

    With this pricing you can't even recover the investment on Hardwares no matter how many time they said they are big and own a DC in the comments.

    I am pretty sure that costs within Russia are a lot lower than the western world. The price is pretty good at HostVDS is you deposit for multiple months at a time.

    You are talking about vps cost and I'm talking about the investment on Hardware and Bandwidth which is high.

    I know cheap things always attract peoples but With this pricing they can't recover the investment.

    No matter how much cash you can burn, one day it will finish.

    That's the reason many low end provider not see a happy ending.

    And I am saying that they are competing against other russian VPS hosts. They are likely using cheap hardware and host in a datacentre paid in russian rubles (Which Is weak vs the USD).

    I am not supprised seeing a web host trying to convince others to raise prices.

    This is a great idea. There should be a minimum topup amount. And more selective account approval.

    While maybe increasing pricing would never yield a good result for the customer, there should be a more preventive measure in place. As of right now, his method is, all comes abroad, abuser or not. If you abuse the service, we will deal with you.

    They forgot to take into account, that abuser could comes in pack, and could took the whole node down. By the time they deal with the abuse it's already too late. The damage has been done, and the abuse user most likely have accomplished the mission.

    $0.79 is still not enough to even recover the investment. Even if they use old refurbished hardware. How many vps they will host on a single node?

    Also I'm not advocating other host to increase their price without any reason.

    Dirt Cheap pricing always attracts abusers.

    Also for now the pricing looks delicious from a client's point of view but then you can't complain if some day the host or if you face constant instability

    Anyway, let's see how long they can keep the price same.

    And also good luck to you too. :smile:

    You only have to look at the recent price increase from AlibabaCloud, we all know what happened there and this is the same principle - Offer cheap pricing to start with as a heavy investment into getting users on the platform, after a year or so remove the package, after an extra year or so do a price increase for active users.

    Plenty of examples of this happening - We'll be pointing back at this thread in a few years time when the 'HostVDS Price Increase' thread happens.

    That is assuming they haven't Deadpooled yet.

    @HostVDS_com - please announce us when we can create more instances.

    Could you also increase the default number of instances from 10 to more, like 20?

    We had some problem with SDN (we rebuild our OVS network, and something going wrong). Now it works fine and you can create new Instances again :).

    We will think about increase default limit, now you can email support why you need more instances and we will increase limit for you.
    It is just protection against spammers/etc

    We just tune our system little bit, so it was little time unable to create new instances, but olds work fine, no downtime.

    We also have plan to the same work in next 24 hours, but I hope it will be little time.

    Hello my existing instance up and down. There is a problem?

    Can't pay via PayPal - the billing system says something like "Couldn't get PayPal URL" which results in an account suspension message, when next logged in. :-/
    Oh well..

    Are your sure problem still exist? Some of our clients pay by PayPal and it works fine.

    When someone is getting big overnight like this, nothing good comes out of it. Hostdoc anyone?

    Nothing against you, but it's clearly unsustainable, and it's on LET. All kind of nasty cheapskate client will ruin your business. That's how LET. They see cheap clearly unsustainable offer, they go in, and buy a bunch of it, and abuse it to the abyss.

    Thanks, but we operate bit OpenStack cloud in Russia, it is thousands of instances, and we have many nodes in reserve. So we are not just "1 rack" hosting :). Do not worry about it.

    Nailed it. You don't get big overnight on LET without a problem. I said it then, I said it again. LET member will abuse the shit out of your server unless you either rise the price, or more selective on accepting customer.

    Raising prices would take away the reason why this offer is so populer as there are many providers with a russian location.

    And if they do not raise the price then the provider itself will disappear soon.

    With this pricing you can't even recover the investment on Hardwares no matter how many time they said they are big and own a DC in the comments.

    Do not worry about our ROI :) We build cool cloud with cool price, very simple.

    I am pretty sure that costs within Russia are a lot lower than the western world. The price is pretty good at HostVDS is you deposit for multiple months at a time.

    You are talking about vps cost and I'm talking about the investment on Hardware and Bandwidth which is high.

    I know cheap things always attract peoples but With this pricing they can't recover the investment.

    No matter how much cash you can burn, one day it will finish.

    That's the reason many low end provider not see a happy ending.

    And I am saying that they are competing against other russian VPS hosts. They are likely using cheap hardware and host in a datacentre paid in russian rubles (Which Is weak vs the USD).

    I am not supprised seeing a web host trying to convince others to raise prices.

    $0.79 is still not enough to even recover the investment. Even if they use old refurbished hardware. How many vps they will host on a single node?

    Also I'm not advocating other host to increase their price without any reason.

    Dirt Cheap pricing always attracts abusers.

    Also for now the pricing looks delicious from a client's point of view but then you can't complain if some day the host or if you face constant instability

    Anyway, let's see how long they can keep the price same.

    And also good luck to you too. :smile:

    Stay safe stay healthy :smile:

    You only have to look at the recent price increase from AlibabaCloud, we all know what happened there and this is the same principle - Offer cheap pricing to start with as a heavy investment into getting users on the platform, after a year or so remove the package, after an extra year or so do a price increase for active users.

    Plenty of examples of this happening - We'll be pointing back at this thread in a few years time when the 'HostVDS Price Increase' thread happens.

    We do not have a plan for rise the price, we even thinkg about limit of 1 VPS per account for $0.49 per month, but only first VPS on account for this price.

    How you think will it be popular?

    While maybe increasing pricing would never yield a good result for the customer, there should be a more preventive measure in place. As of right now, his method is, all comes abroad, abuser or not. If you abuse the service, we will deal with you.

    They forgot to take into account, that abuser could comes in pack, and could took the whole node down. By the time they deal with the abuse it's already too late. The damage has been done, and the abuse user most likely have accomplished the mission.

    Support said it was a SDN (software defined networking) issue that caused downtime yesterday.

    What does it mean? Did they somehow screw up /etc/netplan?

    SDN = Software Defined Network, modern way of building virtual networks and network functions.

    Are your sure problem still exist? Some of our clients pay by PayPal and it works fine.

    Teething problems, presumably, as I got a workaround eventually.
    I still have a strange available balance but given that I only deposited $2.30, I'm not worried.
    Your email replies are very generic (the same every time), so perhaps you could do with a Ticket system. ;)

    Currently "playing with" (setting up) a new system.. let's see how things go. Not that I need yet another VPS but this will be an interesting side project. This is why I am Always Skint!
