Swedish VPS for $5/year?
anyone can offer VPS:
location: Sweden
payment: bitcoin ($5/year)
1 x IPv4
128-256 MB RAM
2GB HDD/Space
OS: debian
bandwidth can be even just 20 or 50GB per month, I just want to put online website which I made before 10 years. there will be not so many visitors. I think it will spend 500MB per month, but people offer usually much more (100GB). it is just joomla static site, without updates of news and many visitors. I plan to install debian 7 + webserver (lighttpd, mysql, php).
I checked already LowEndSpirit/Inception hosting Offers, there is no Sweden and I don't like TOS and there is no IPv4, I am not interested to use cloudflare for IPv6.
if I wanted American location of server, I could use IP Systems Ltd: 256MB RAM - 2 IPV4 - $3.50/year - OpenVZ - Dallas (www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/39541/ip-systems-limited-256mb-ram-2-ipv4-3-50-year-openvz-dallas). is there anything like that for sweden?

You're asking for something unrealistic for Europe in general, not even counting in Sweden. The closest you'd get with a quality host at your price is BandwagonHost in NL - you can get a 128MB VPS for ~$6/yr, 512MB for ~$10/yr, that would fall into your required specs. https://bandwagonhost.com/cart.php?gid=1 (Micro 128 / 5G Promo V2)
As for Sweden, I've been using HostHatch and been extremely happy with them. Quality host and reasonable pricing for the specs they provide in Sweden, but quality comes with a cost. Base plan is $30/yr (256MB) https://hosthatch.com/openvz-ssd-vps
They did offer a 128MB plan for $14/yr - http://lowendtalk.com/discussion/35607/swedish-ssd-vps-14-per-year-128mb-ram-10-gb-ssd-500-gb-bw-free-ssl - which is 3x your request, but it's extremely reasonable for what they provide + being in Sweden.
Hi, thank you for your answer. I know that datacenters are much more built in the US than in the EU, and even in europe, sweden is more expensive, NL is maybe the cheapest in Europe. bigger competition = cheaper price.
I asked alibabahost, they own lunarvps with vps in sweden if they can make smaller configuration for me, I don't need very good VPS for joomla website with small number of visitors. I will see what they will say. if anyone knows any other option, you are welcome to write.
If you check Swedish providers it will be close to $10-15/month.
Cheapest in Sweden is probably Hosthatch. edis.at has vServer for €5/month (with 512mb RAM).
Your server status is down :P
+1 hosthatch
I remember lots of complaints about Hosthatch during offer threads but maybe they were in the minority.
Nah, they are mostly ok. At least that's my experience with their .nl and .se VPSs.
No problem with HostHatch (‘STH’ location), at all. It has now been past validation (i.e over four months) and they have lived up to my expectations by providing me with a stable service.
Dude asking for 5$ a year not a 5$ per month as HostHatch does.. See signature..
Wtf .... I didn't read clearly
.
You should pray for it. ... at least over 4 yrs.
Yeah. My comment was a reply to @Xei. I have never seen a Swedish company offer any 5$/yr VPSes.
There may be one around somewhere, but I would hazard a guess that their service will be GVHish in terms of everything.
Ask @VikingLayer why?
+1 for hosthatch
No need to, I can think of a host of reasons I'm in Scandinavia, btw.
In EU there are many datacenters, however, some are really expensive and do not feature often in LE offers. There are also cheap ones, but IIRC, not in sweden.
The reason in EU prices are higher, is because of IPv4 costs, most of the time.
Check out https://yourserver.se. Not for 5$, of course, but still good
OK, as well we seen HostHatch your sponsor..
BTW: You has a strange design of your blog badges..
OK, thank you, possibly I will have to choose dallas/USA in the end...
HostHatch +1 for SE and NL.
There's quite a few reasons, everything is more expensive due to higher taxes and there's less competition when it comes to data centers so co-location costs more.
That being said, we just got our servers that we're going to co-locate in Stockholm, just need to wait until we get our IPs now. No $5/yr offers though, but we may do some limited cheap yearly deals. We'll see
VOID
Let me guess, you tried to get a 7 day IP for something and also keep your money. It did not work and you came here to make good on the threats.
While it may not be so, chances are it is. Might want to avoid giving this guarantee, or specify clear conditions, like 0 abuse, refund can only be done after 1 month to give time to abuse to come in, etc.
Add Vultr into list for sure

Thanks. They are actually only fillers because at the moment I've not had time to find the issue as to why the actual featured image won't appear.
I changed the wording to « AFFILIATE » so as to not cause any confusion ^^
