firstly it’s just some providers’ market policy, then it becomes a meme
Personally, I have no problem paying more than $7.
If that's a 2c4g 3TB storage VPS in Romania, I'm willing to splurge even $15/year...
Show me evidence, where 7$/y deals, caused a provider, directly, not indirectly to deadpool.
Until not proven, I call bullshit.
any $7/y dealz to celebrate?
the moment is building.....
3tb for $15/y is good choice 👍
awesome viewpoint.
Okay, so from today $6,99/y
$7/y?
$7/year deals are marketing/branding and a cheap way to get signups to your newsletter.
The newbies that aren’t able to sell more and sustainable services to the customers they get through this kind of marketing end up deadpooling.
They would have deadpooled anyway, because of the same problem: they do not know how to sell or scare their customers away with bad service.
u r right but we need more 7$
Cheap offer doesn't mean deadpooling, although the chance is higher. Virmach offered $5/y a $6/y last BF, it's still running. Deluxhost regularly offers $7/y for months, they still work. Notorious Massive Grid is online too (if you're in Frankfurt, that is). There was HT-hosting with $5/month (but insane specs for that) and they went under.
The fun part is figuring out which provider can keep it running and which one grossly miscalculated or just straight out pulled a scam.
I don't care , i love all those GIFs in deal posts.
Where are they now? lol
Some have cheap deals, then you hear months nothing after. You forget you spend money.
Ok, $3/yr plz.
so how about we take this in your sig
and we do some math on it to make it
This must be reverse psychology attempt hack on 7$year deals.
Don't fall for it providers!
I agree with @wadhah, and the math makes sense too. If it works for the provider, great! There is definitely an audience for that.
That's gen2, it's getting decommissioned, isn't it?
Don't buy it!1oneeoen!1
I buy <$15/yr units to evaluate providers I never used before. If you sell me shit service because "only $7" there's no fucking way you get more money from me, get real.
Sure but IPv6 only, because IPv4 is the majority of the cost.
I do not agree.
7$ is a lot of money in some countries.
Server are more powerfull than ever, bandwidth is cheap and speeds increased.
Yet we see stupid high prices on junk vps specs share with 1 mil. other clients.
Someone or everyone?
Completely irrelevant
acutally Virmach changed hands before . new ownership but can't rem which year.
before that, they will #1 notorious for BF deals back in the days and they have their own webpage for BF deals.
HostCram's $7/Year deals are ending due to Core i9 hardware EOL.
We will not do such deals again.
$3 per year deals pls
agree no more $7/y, $6/y please!
Please ask me for more $7/yr deals.
