How Should I Choose a VPS, and Which Providers Should I Avoid?
Title
First Time Renting a VPS — What Should I Look For and Which Providers Should I Avoid?
Description
Hi everyone! This is my first time renting a VPS, so I’m still a beginner and don’t know much about choosing a good provider for my service.
The project I'm talking about mostly is backend service for specified project.
I’d like some advice on what I should look for when choosing a VPS, such as CPU performance, RAM, storage, network quality, uptime, location, security, backups, and customer support.
I’d also like to know what I should avoid, especially things that a beginner might not notice when comparing VPS providers. Are there any common red flags, misleading offers, or providers that are known for poor service?
