This is correct. We are a small 'clean' VPN startup company. We block torrents to avoid the hassle with DMCA, unless the provider ignores it. We are focusing on customers from the Middle East, Russia, and China who need access to free, uncensored information.
Yes, I did a lot of shopping on Black Friday and got some great deals. However, it's still quite difficult to find all the gems at once. I continue to discover providers that I had previously missed. It's a full-time job.
That's a fair point, thank you. I'm not experienced in acquiring and paying with cryptocurrency. And since we are a registered limited company, I'm not sure how our accountant would react to expensing payments with crypto. 😊 I suppose it's something we might do more in the future.
Thanks, I bookmarked your site for next year. Already covered there on Black Friday.
You misunderstood me. I told you the following information: the servers of these companies host many people from Russia - who use their virtual machines as VPN, as a proxy, as servers for multi-accounts and nodes in the field of cryptocurrency. Because of this, as cryptocurrencies become more popular and their prices rise, you will see severe problems on your servers. They can switch off 3-4 times a week for several hours; this already happened in the last cycle and will happen again in this one. Also, when their servers are used en masse for VPN, and even from the Russian region, you need to understand that all IP addresses will block well-known services in blocks and it will not be entirely yyou not correct to watch Netflix, for example, or something like that. Go to Twitter the same and much more. Not all, but there will be such problems. And if you are a small startup company, then you should concentrate on medium-sized providers that are used for web projects and development, and not so often VPN, but with an emphasis on DCMA. I am also a startup and in approximately the same direction, only broader - so I give advice from a professional point of view.
For this purpose, there is a large thread where offers are selected in a list and they are not always sold out even in the flow of people who immediately buy without thinking when any offer appears. You can analyze them and even after two days of the start of trading there will be such offers. You can also sit a person down and immediately watch for offers from users, specific good providers - so as not to miss flash deals. Well, you can also quickly look through the individual threads that exist on the forum, since sometimes it happens that such proposals are not in the large main thread. But it’s best to determine the provider in advance, although there were a lot of new providers servers this year (but the main providers are already known) and you can easily run scripts on them, catching their offers. So far, in this case, I began to do just that.
I understand now. Thank you for the advice. Yes, it makes sense.
You can try also - https://cp.inferno.name/cart.php?gid=46
They have a lot of locations and their payment options more reliable.
List of good providers
Berohost
Liteserver
Prepaidhost
Prohosting24
Naranjatech
Hostbrr (young)
Servarica
Phpfriends
And you can also add about 15 -17 worthy providers who have been recognized here for a long time
The rest, which will appear quite recently, can quickly disappear, as has now happened on the forum with 3 providers in just the last few months. Or provide such a service that you will need to go to a psychologist to improve your nerves, as, for example, c1vhosting does
Thanks, what do they mean by "Traffic: Not taken into account" ?
But overall expensive, as they don't seem to have a yearly discount.
Well having your outfit in so many localizations is hardly feasible for small companies. Oneprovider resell, too.
I have tried many localizations speed is mostly up to 1 Gigabit. Only cheap promo localization in Russia gives 50 Mbit. It all depends on the local data center, it's not the provider's problem.
Support answered me that traffic in all localizations is unlimited without speed reduction only if DDOS.
For Russia the price of 420 rubles is quite high now at the current dollar exchange rate I don't think they have a lot of users in Russia. In dollars it is very good.
Support has a live chat on the site where they respond in 2 minutes during business hours.
I would not say that reinstalling the OS in the control panel is a problem Everything is done without problems.
You are a young company and not very well known, but I bought your server to test it fully. A later there will be a yabs test to see how it behaves. There are no questions about the panel and organization yet, let's see how it will work in real time.
hehe I hope it doesn't get that far. But I know what you mean.
But I need to keep an eye on providers that disappear.
Thanks for the list. Much appreciated. I'm already using LiteServer. Didn't know the rest of them. I'll check them out.
Personally, I found Green Cloud and HostHatch's flash sales very useful.
For Turkey, I would recommend markahost. They have been great for me
For Poland, I would definitely look at RemoteAdmin and RDP.sh
I would also check out Melbicom, they have some of the locations you are looking for.
All Russian public pages and forums advertise only 3 main VPS services, and in Russia there are quite a few people who will go to one place and buy en masse, the price is not high for every person. Moreover, there are massively unified groups of servers. I had about 20 servers there, I know what I’m talking about. And I know where and what they buy and how. And how aeza.net partially resells them. But they had problems with installation, now it’s a little better, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. What your provider tells you is one thing, but real-time speed is completely different. Test it 10 times during the day in your locations and you will see.
Traffic is unlimited for Europe and the USA. Traffic for APAC and other regions is limited depending on the specification. They have been in business for over 10 years. They accept PayPal with manual request.
Overall 4vps is better than them. But lacks non-Russian payment methods.
Green Cloud is not really about VPN, although their budget line is of course super and has a large selection, plus the availability of two- and three-year plans at good discounts. But hostnach is a good provider in America, but he is not alone, and some of the networks there are also proxies, which does not always have a good effect. But I have servers with them and everything is ok.
I can assume that you are from Russia and very confidently advise Russian providers. Inferno is a more mature provider, approximately the same plan as 4vps. Only the reliability and oversale will be even worse, and so will the reviews. Although there are many locations and payment, as you said, is easier.
naranjatech resells liteserver for an annual fee only and at much better prices and offers. I have used many servers, the quality is good. I even want to transfer a lot of servers, but I didn’t have enough time to make a thread on the forum to give it to someone))
I have nothing to do with them at all Just recommend them as a good option with a lot of localizations in one place.
Russia as you know has no connection to DMСA and other such things plus unlimited traffic for VPN.
Inferno had a 50% recurring discount on BF but it's gone now but it would be nice for the price.
Yes, there was such an offer, but even with such a discount, Inferno does not deserve attention. But you are right about unlimited real traffic; such benefits for such a price can only be found in Europe, and even then not everywhere. But Russian localization now still scares off many people in the world, and secondly, they use their own Russian subnets, which connect to foreign servers through BGP and show that the server is supposedly located abroad. But geo networks don’t always change quickly, and when it comes to routing, many services now quickly cut this off and don’t provide access, this point also needs to be taken into account. Well, about DMCA, of course, there is no such thing as in Russia and Moldova from the Russian-speaking segment anywhere, even Ukraine
Really? What exactly is there to be afraid of? An old KGB tale or? Prices are usually significantly lower with the same quality considering the local market and the dollar exchange rate.
No routine passport and credit card checks. You can register simply by receiving a confirmation e-mail. All you need is your name and email. No need to fill in sheets with addresses and other personal data as with many European and American providers. You don't have to upload copies of the id to them. No restrictions on IP addresses when registering an account No one will send you away or block you if they think you have registered from the wrong IP address.
And where there is more freedom?
And the fact that you can't just pay a foreigner is a problem that the west has created for itself, even without realizing that they themselves will have to take advantage of it someday. Friendly countries pay and transfer money without any problems
Exactly. Especially for the support, it sucks massively. You make a request, the support desk employee replies with "Hello. Request forwarded to Technical Staff." 1 Month later, you reask/push the ticket, nothing. 4 months later, well, nada.
I don't know what you're talking about. I've made few inquiries and they responded pretty quickly. They respond during business hours. If you send a request at night or on weekends, there may be a delay. They have a chat field in the bottom right corner where they respond within few minutes.
Really? Damn. Chat field's blocked by my Adblock, but on tickets, they are ghosting me.
I use AdBlocker and have normal access to the chat. Yesterday I asked about traffic restrictions. Two minutes later they replied that there are no traffic restrictions. And there's no reduction.
Nah, I've got a special list blocking all these live chats (because I usually don't need them). I can only assume that they are normally fast, except when they need to do something? (e.g. deleting account etc)
Well, that's your personal problem. Not that they're blocking you.
I personally didn't see any problems. If you write at night Moscow time or on weekends, there may be delays until morning or Monday.
That's why (I would like to) communicate only via ticket.
Well, the ticket was a few months ago. Regardless, doesn't really matter. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Well, you can send a paper letter in the mail if you like
Can you provide a screenshot of the date and time of this ticket? And evidence of no response?
What language are you using? Have you escalated the ticket?
That's like gave satisfactions your friend doesn't call you when you yourself banned his number a few days ago.
If that is in fact the case, you've probably made some impossible demands. That they can't actually fulfill.
