About VPS.net

VPS.net offers virtual private server cloud hosting which puts you in control of your hosting plan. Cloud hosting adjusts the server requirements your site uses based on the traffic and content at any given time. You only pay for what you use, rather than paying for a static amount each month, whether you use the space and bandwidth or not.

Services Offered

VPS.net allows its hosting customers to create their own custom virtual private server, using nodes of server space at (or less) each. There’s a discount for bulk services, so buying more you save more. For example, buying at least two nodes cuts the cost down to /each or a month, and buying 6 nodes, which they claim is the most popular option brings the cost down to /month or per node. Each node of server space contains: 256MB of RAM, 10GB storage, 250GB transfer and a certain CPU share. All the nodes can be then added together creating a virtual machine, where you choose the operating system you want to install. Operating system options include: Ubuntu, CentOS, Gentoo, Debian and Turnkey Linux. Temporary servers are available at per day to help with rather not long-lasting surges in traffic, such as when you are running a special promotion.
