Alright I have a box i recently bought is in need of management cuz im not confident enough that I can keep it that well secured. I was looking at PSM but they require a CP server, since i use this for my own personal use im prob not gonna spend on the money on it after finding out how expensive it is. Im looking for other options , and price is a big selling piont

Well Dave, You need to define what you want done in the course of a month of managing this box and what your budget is.

My biggest concern a need for help is some optimization and hardening, maybe a little initial setup help too. Budget im hoping for the 25-50 range

Hello Dave, Why not increase your budget and have it as a one time thing, then just have regular checkups every 1-2 months of an hour or so which should lower your overall monthly requirements.

Scott.MC makes a good point. Pay a larger fee up front for the initial setup and to get you on your feet. Then, have some maintenance periods every month or so for a short time to make sure everything is still on track. That should cut down some monthly expenses for you.
