    Cheap VPS Host

    I'm looking for a very simple, basic VPS, for as little cost per month as possible.

    In reality I only really need about 10MB disk space, 256MB RAM and a couple of hundred meg bandwidth, maybe, not sure about the bandwidth usage tbh. Also would like it to be running Linux, preferably Ubuntu.

    Any ideas?

    I've used these people in the past and didn't have any problems, although no guarentee as to how they are now, but they are cheap:

    Not as cheap as Servelocity, but Bytemark have legendary support that I can vouch for, with a choice of Debian, Ubuntu or CentOS.

    Take a look at Contextshift. Their VPS are dead cheap and the support is pretty good to.
    There is always someone on their support channel (irc.freenode.net #contextshift) who you can have a chat with to find out more.

    A friend uses OVH. These are dedicated servers, but the price of a cheap VPS:

    His server's hosted in Paris... he seems to be happy. There's a wide choice of OSs including Ubuntu.

    Re: Cheap VPS Host

    Anyone know how much memory Servelocity provide in their packages, many VPS provide pretty much no memory to force people to buy better packages disk/bandwidth wise than they need. I notice ContextShift offer 64MB! In there cheapest offering rather than bytemark which offer a 500MiB.
    (\__/) All I wanted in the end was world domination and a whole lot of money to spend. - NMA

    Dunno about the amount of RAM they're guarantee, but looking at their forums and last posted times on most of those threads I'd be tempted to not use them at all...
