VPS that can match EuroVPS prices but can match Site5 support
Posted by Pudl1 Z3d, 02-20-2016, 09:22 PM |
Hello, I have changed several hosts so far in my entrepreneurial life.
So far, Site5 was best experience by far. Fast servers and superb support 24/7 (they are purchased by EIG, but still haven't changed). To be honest, only host support I have been satisfied with. But I just can't afford them. I run 3 Wordpress sites, each with 50k-150k visits per month and several support websites with just a few (usually less than 100) visits per day and Site5 can't have me on Reseller Premier (shared) account (they say I spend too much resources) and I can't afford their VPS4 hosting, I was forced to move to EuroVPS.
EuroVPS have OK prices and fair (sometimes slow) support for reseller (shared) accounts but they too say that my need outgrown Reseller and need VPS. Since they charge (for VPS plans) additional 14 euros per month for cPanel and 29 euros per month for managed support and 19 euros for website transfer I started to look for my other options.
So, I need hosting with Euro based managed VPS with at least 2 GB of RAM and good support (I prefer live chat but it's not a issue if they do not have it) or reseller (shared) account that is not oversold and can support my needs of about 300k+ Wordpress visits per month in total.
My budget is about 65 euros (73 dollars) for hosting. Do you have any suggestions?

I assumed you are looking for Europe location? Your budget seems ok. Did you check the vps offers in advertising forum?

Yes, I'm looking for hosting with Euro servers.
I did, but I need real experiences, not marketing promises since few hosts deliver what they primise

I'm also a former Site5 customer - I ended up with a VPS from Transip (PureSSD X4) that sounds as if it would do the job and is well within your budget.

Check out the offer section some great host there. You could also look at hostdime and power up hosting

Possible alternatives to look at:
- online.net "hosting performance" (Dedicated resources but no cPanel)
- AltusHost Linux VPS (managed + cPanel)
Could also be that adding Varnish or some other caching solution solves the problem all together.
Have been using AltusHost shared hosting myself, great support and performance.
One.com puts Varnish in front of all their Wordpress sites but support/uptime is not that great (and low performance of pages that are not cached)

Your budget should be more than generous for a well run, enterprise VM / Cloud server with the licenses you need.

Have you contacted Site5 to ask them if they can lower your monthly bill? A lot of providers do not want to lose a customer and they would have no issues lowering their monthly price a couple bucks to keep you. It doesnt hurt to ask them.

VPS4 on Site5 is about 141$, so it's not just a few bucks. On other hand, EuroVPS do not want to lower that few bucks over my budget so ...

KnownSRV.com is the best managed provider in Europe I have came across so far. You can't go wrong with them...
