I’m looking for a VPS costing $60–80 per year with at least 250 GB of disk space to host a forum

Hello,
I need a VPS to host a XenForo forum with about 1000 daily visitors. My approximate requirements are: a 3–4 core CPU, 4–6 GB of RAM, and at least 250 GB of disk space.

$60–80 per year

Thank you.

    Hi,

    I suggest considering two recent promotional offers. Keep in mind those usually have some restrictions like no refunds or no future upgrades. Both should be stable and reliable and I don't think you'll be able to find anything better at this price.

    Please check out greencloud's storage sale, they still seem to have some stock left over in US and SG. There's a small OS drive and large HDD drive, I hope that's okay for your use case.

    For 80 usd/year you can have:

    6144MB RAM
    4 cores @ Intel E5v4 CPU
    60GB NVMe OS Boot + 2TB SATA RAID-10 Hard drives
    1 IPv4 + /64 IPv6 IP
    4TB Bandwidth
    10Gbps Port
    

    @NDTN

    You can also look at HostDzire's recent deal thread (leaseweb in many locations). Offers slightly better specs, but does not meet your 250GB requirement (only 200GB nvme). @HostDZire

    Hello. After one year, will I have the option to renew at the same price? Or could the cost be completely different after the year ends?

    Hi,

    we do not do nonsense like this as our pricings are simply well calculated.

    We would raise prices if the cost for datacenter colocation/power or traffic significantly rise. But even after the heavy jumps of power cost in germany ( after the ukraine war started ) we did not raise the prices, just like we did not do it in the past 20 years.

    If ever we will update the hardware that provides the virtual servers for free. But up until now no customer ever complained about that ;)

    In general: Prices rise if ever for new contracts. Not for existing ones.

  • Servarica is a good option , their kvm slim slice can get you 250g nvme for about 55$/year , in Montreal , do check them out aswell.

    Every renewal is technically a new contract.

    Hi,

    hrhr thats an interpretation that is a bit too exotic for me. A renewal is the extension/continuation of an existing contract under identical conditions. To be a real new contract, the old contract would have to be cancelled. All our contracts are auto renewal if not cancelled.

    You would need to be a quiet fishy contract partner to come up with the idea that renewals are complete new contracts. At least in germany things are usually not handled like this. And especially we would not handle things like that in such a customer fooling way.

    In general all our contracts are always monthly. So theoretically we could cancel them, raise the prices and offer new contracts with the new pricing. But this game we wont play. At least not as long as i am in posession of this company.

    I saw here in the forum already entities who pull off such moves. Also this life time price guarantees and then suddenly the life of the product is simply declared end and other stuff. Thats all business behavior that was never practize with us. For me fairness and reliability are most important and are crucial elements of the whole way how Layer7 is doing business.
