So there are all kinds of deals. Black Friday had many 1gb ram $7/yr deals.
Most of us don’t use these for production. Or only personal production etc
10 years ago I paid $4 for 128mb ram deals. They deadpooled 6 months in
I got a Onidel VPS for just over $3 a year
1GB RAM, 1 vCPU, 20 GB NVMe and 1 IPv4
If I remember correctly
The cheapest is like $3.50 per year on the pony, I think it's Gullo on a NAT VPS on OpenVZ.
My cheapest VMs:
8.48$/y (1C 1,5GB 30GB nvme (IPv4)
5$/y (1C 1GB 50GB nvme (IPv6 only)
But I tend to prefer boxes with 4GB RAM for peace of mind
My cheapest VPS is $1/yr with dedicated IPv4, 1 7950X core and 512 MB RAM in Singapore from @rsk, and because I have won some credit there as well, it's free for the next decade or so.
That's a pretty good deal. It is still available?
Free. Oracle cloud. Cheapest payed for I have is 256mb, 10 G , 1.5 TB @ $0.5/year.
Where did you find the 0.5 cents deal?
@Cam is the true low-end (in name only) man
I think the NAT VPS from Gullo's Hosting
My cheapest was ~$5.5/yr with 128M RAM and a dedi IPv4 from BlueVM, just before it went deadpooled back in 2014.
The promo is still on LEB now. Check https://lowendbox.com/blog/bluevm-5-63year-128mb-5-63month-1gb-openvz-and-a-kvm-in-various-locations/ for more info.
Update:
Just remembered the cheapest I ever got was from XVMLabs. It came with 7 IPs, and cost only $2.99/yr, on top of OpenVZ, ofc.
LimitlessHost Chicago 512MB 5GB $3/year, YABS.
$1/y BF 2021 Flash sale - Gullo's Hosting @Cam
Some blackfriday deal or flash sale years ago.
I hopped on that deal as well! Not a lot of horsepower, but nice to have another point on the internet where you can test from!
my cheapest VPS is $0 monthly from Virmach.
Mine cheapest is also from Virmach 3$/y have it 9 years so far.. This bf i got 10 more (different providers) range from 5-10$..
Mine cheapest VPS is
4x vCore / 4 GB / 40 GB … for $8/year
There are so many attractive VPS, but unfortunately my cheapest VPS is $10 per year
Oracle cloud is FREE for lifetime.
https://h2.nexus/
$6 per year with IPv4 KVM/ But NOW they takes one time setup fee.
And here I was, thinking that $4/y ipv6 only was a great deal
Cheapest would be free, you can get free here.
Either your lucky or you just apply for free vps.
However, otherwise anything below 15$/y with decent spec's.
Even as low as 6$/y and less, for years.
1vCore i7, 1GB 1IPv6 only. 6.07/y
2 core 0.5G 20GB 1.99$ for 6 months ipv6 only
You can get free tier VPS from Google cloud or Oracle. I find the Oracle one really reliable for running a few python scripts that push to my webserver. Other free tier options like Alibaba or Amazon are for 12months while I've run Oracle and Google Cloud ones for a few years.
Besides free from oracle I have 2 VPS's @ $6/year that have IPv4:
DataIdeas 1c/1GB/20GB US-South
H2Nexus 1c/1GB/10GB Germany
I have a free ARM VPS with 24 cores, 24 GB Ram, 100GB Disk from a old Oracle free tier.
