Linux and Windows VPS hosting
Buy a Linux or Windows VPS server with root or administrator access, dedicated vCPU and RAM, and one fixed monthly price. No setup fee, no contract, cancel when you like.
Every VPS plan includes dedicated vCPU and RAM, one IPv4 address and your choice of location. You pay monthly, and the price you see is the price you renew at.

Both run on the same hardware. Pick the operating system your software needs.
Ubuntu / Debian / AlmaLinux
Root access over SSH on Ubuntu, Debian or AlmaLinux. This is the usual choice for websites, web apps, APIs, databases and Docker containers.
Linux uses less memory than Windows for the same job, so the same plan goes further.
Windows Server
A full Windows Server desktop over Remote Desktop (RDP), with administrator access.
Use it for Windows-only software, .NET apps, trading platforms or a remote office desktop. If you need a cheap Windows VPS with RDP, Starter is the place to begin.
VPS hosting gives you a virtual private server: a reserved share of a physical server with its own CPU, RAM, storage and operating system, plus root or administrator access. Other customers share the hardware, but not your resources, and you control everything inside your server.
It sits between shared hosting and a dedicated server. You get the control of a dedicated server at a price closer to shared hosting, and you can resize when your project grows.
| Feature | Shared hosting | VPS hosting | Dedicated server |
|---|---|---|---|
| Resources | Shared with other sites | Reserved for your server | A whole physical machine |
| Root or admin access | No | Yes | Yes |
| Install your own software | Limited | Anything your license allows | Anything |
| Who runs the server | The host | You, on an unmanaged VPS | You or the host |
| Typical monthly cost | Lowest | Middle | Highest |
| Best for | One small site | Apps, stores, databases, RDP | Large, steady workloads |
The basics, stated plainly.
Install what you need. Reboot, reinstall or open a console from the control panel.
One monthly price per server. No setup fee.
Run Node.js, Python, Ruby or anything else you install.
Start from what you will run, not from the biggest number you can afford.
| What you run | Plan | vCPU / RAM / storage | Per month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Static site, small API or test server | Linux Starter | 1 / 1 GB / 25 GB NVMe | $9.99 |
| WordPress or a small Node, Python or PHP app | Linux Basic | 1 / 2 GB / 55 GB NVMe | $14.99 |
| App and its database on one server | Linux Standard | 2 / 4 GB / 80 GB NVMe | $24.99 |
| Busy database or several services | Linux Business | 4 / 8 GB / 160 GB NVMe | $49.99 |
| Windows desktop over RDP for one person | Windows Standard | 2 / 4 GB / 80 GB NVMe | $24.99 |
Not sure? Measure what you use today and add about a third as headroom. Our guide on how much RAM a VPS needs shows how to check.
Node, Python, PHP or a plain Nginx. Install your own stack, set your own limits.
Keep Postgres, MySQL or Redis on a server that is not shared with someone else's busy site.
Pick a location near your players and open the ports you need.
Log in over RDP from anywhere to run business software, trading platforms or bots.
A VPS is more work than shared hosting. Skip it if one of these sounds like you.
You run one small WordPress site and do not want to update a server. Shared hosting costs less and someone else patches it.
You need someone else to run the server. Our VPS hosting is unmanaged, so a managed VPS from another provider fits you better.
Licensing or compliance rules require physical hardware that only you use. Choose a dedicated server.
Three steps from order to login.
Choose Linux or Windows, then the vCPU, RAM and storage that fit your workload.
Select the data centre closest to your users. Closer servers respond faster.
Your server is set up after payment and the IP address and login arrive by email.
Unmanaged means security is your job. Do these six things before anything goes live.
Run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade on Ubuntu or Debian, or sudo dnf upgrade on AlmaLinux. On Windows Server, run Windows Update and restart.
Create a normal user with sudo rights, then set PermitRootLogin no in the SSH configuration so attackers cannot guess the root password.
Copy your public key with ssh-copy-id, check that it works, then set PasswordAuthentication no and restart SSH.
Allow only the ports you use, for example sudo ufw allow OpenSSH and then sudo ufw enable. On Windows, keep Windows Defender Firewall on and limit who can reach RDP.
Install unattended-upgrades on Ubuntu or Debian, or dnf-automatic on AlmaLinux, so security fixes land without you remembering.
Copy your data off the server on a schedule. Restore it once to a test folder. A backup you have never restored is a guess.

A VPS server is a virtual machine on a physical server shared with other VPSs. It has its own reserved CPU, RAM and storage, its own operating system and full root or administrator access, like a small dedicated server.
Linux VPS plans start at $9.99 per month and Windows VPS plans at $9.99 per month. There is no setup fee and you pay monthly.
Unmanaged. You look after the operating system, software updates and backups. We run the hardware, the network and the control panel, and support helps with anything on our side.
Choose Linux for websites, web apps, APIs, databases and Docker. Choose Windows when your software only runs on Windows or you want a remote desktop over RDP.
Yes. Billing is monthly with no contract. Cancel from your account at any time and the server runs until the end of the month you paid for.
Yes. Linux servers come with root over SSH and Windows servers with administrator over RDP. You can install anything your software license allows.
Yes. Move to a larger plan from the control panel when you need more vCPU, RAM or storage. A resize can need one reboot, which usually takes a few minutes.
Some. On Linux you should be comfortable with the command line and SSH. On Windows you need to look after Windows Server over RDP. If you would rather not, shared hosting or a managed VPS is the better fit.
Websites, web apps, APIs, databases, Docker containers, game and voice servers, and Windows software over RDP. The acceptable use policy lists what is not allowed.
