There's really plenty. You just have to know where to look.
If only we had a blog that did that...
Wait, what?
Anyway, I've planned my next surprise post in a week or so on LEB. I'm not sure which one to publish yet, though.
Do I get sneak previews/first dibs on these now?
You could if you pay me enough. I'll send you the address for the cheques.
Oh mans, I don't think I even have cheques anymore!
How do locations work for offers that do not fit into those locations. Do you chose the closest location from the list?
Hello!
We are launching new DDoS protected services in France very soon (in a matter of days) so keep checking our website!

Lack of EU providers? Why say "EU" as opposed to "Europe?"
Not all European countries are in the European Union. Why would you exclude the rest of Europe when buying a VPS?
Just for convenience, it's quite obvious he used it as shorthand for Europe. Stop being a dick about things, go and join UKIP or something.
EU is shorthand for European Union, not Europe. .eu is the domain for the European Union, not Europe, it is just annoying, like when people use "ect" instead of "etc".
And please don't bring politics into this, the UK is in the European Union anyway so what is your point?
Also, left-wing countries such as Norway and Switzerland aren't in the EU.
Alright whatever makes you happy . I don't like to argue in such small matters.
I'm not sure I understand you.
I wasn't trying to argue, just wanted to point something out which somehow annoys me. :P
OK you increased my knowledge.
That makes two of us! On the LEB page, there are location categories under headings. For instance, 'Europe' only has certain countries listed. If I offered a service in Poland; how would it fit into those categories, do you choose the closest?
I wouldn't take that menu list literally, it isn't really updated. There are many other European location offers, which countries are not on the list.
No, its added.
There obviously was no "Austria" before EDIS.
If that was true, where's Iceland, Romania, Bulgaria, Estonia, etc?
It's actually really funny if you like silly comedies.
As for costs I thought bandwidth was cheaper in Europe, but IPs and power are more expensive?
I actually do like silly comedies, I recently very much enjoyed Anchorman 2 and 21 Jump Street. Based on this information, would you still recommend this movie to me?
I liked it, was not that bad - But you need to be intoxicated to watch it.
Not all are added, they are in the Europe category then.
There's sa lack of providers in the EU? I think there's just as many as the USA, if not more. Try finding a good provider in South America or Africa. There's even dedicated servers for like 10 EUR in the EU.
What is also very difficult for European providers is the horrible current EUR/USD exchange rate. No problem if you sell to European customers only, but eating nearly any profit when offering VPS's in $, for example to post an offer here on LET
+1 Vote to allow European providers to post offers in €, so €7/month
So why so few Alabama, USA providers? Why so few Mississippi providers? Why so few Arkansas providers? I could go on with the list of US states with nearly no known providers... In fact most USA offers are concentrated in maybe only 10 states.
For example I see 2-3Euros VPS offers in EU so i dont see a reason to say to expensive and 3Euros is under 7$
Yes, but please also compare the offers. You still get more RAM in $ then in € offers, due to the current exchange rate. And when you get the same, believe me, in Europe then they surely make lesser profit!
So European providers can't compete with US providers, when they have to post the prices in $ and below $7.
Every European company exporting to $ markets currently has this problem. That's why for example German cars manufacturers have opened factories in the US, to counteract the exchange rate problems.
@vpsXtreme Nope, 1024MB OpenVZ for 3Euros https://myvirtualserver.de/vps.html
Its just a cheap excuse.
Ah, like that. They just don't fit in that block. Those are actually just tags of the most popular locations and not all locations are listed in it. In a sense, it's somewhat outdated, so I'll have to see if we're going to do something with that in the future.
Or twelve. Euro Trip is one of those movies like Ali G Indahouse that I loved when I was younger (probably because it was rude) and I still get a laugh out of. Not sure I'd like them if I saw them for the first time today.
I vote you add more or just add a Categories sidebar widget with a dropdown to expand (that is if they use child-cat's properly), would give the exotic locations a bit more exposure!
