To everyone who is waiting to get a cheap but powerful BuyVM VPS, please get your calendar marked! According to this announcement, they will be adding stock again on Monday April 18th at 12:00pm GMT-7, if you have any trouble translating this to your local time, here is a website that may help. BuyVM is perhaps one of the most famous players in the low end VPS industry, and their 15 USD/year plan, which I have just finished an review on 96MB.com, is perhaps one of the most popular among the low-end VPS users. In fact, it is so popular that there is actually a website dedicated for their stock and last time they added stock, all 15USD/year plan are gone in 30 minutes! So don’t wait, set up your alarm clock and grab one before it runs out!

Just received the message from Andrew from 123Systems: We actually just released stock less than an hour ago, there is 25 spots for the 128 plan and 25 for the 192 plan. Order link is https://123systems.net/billing/cart.php?a=add&pid=149 and you can also view my previous post for more details about them, but make your move quick because only 25 are there! Good luck everyone and let us how it goes if you got one!

BuyVM pretty much the most contentious brand in the low end VPS industry, primarily due to its ability to offer one of the cheapest low end box in the industry, the famous 15 USD per year plan. The post on LowEndBox has generated more than 300 comments, perhaps more than any other posts that have ever generated, and according to this post, they basically need to answer the doubts about their profitability almost every week. Basically, for 15 USD per year, here is what you will be getting: All of their VPS offered are co-located in the data centre of Hurricane Electric in Fremont, CA. Domain name was registered barely last year and the registrant is based in Victoria, BC, Canada: and name servers seem to have different IP blocks, which is, as usual, a good thing: The interesting part is that their company website seems to be using their Read More

I just did a head count on my VPS today and here are what are available in my inventory at the time of writing: 1. 1 x XenVZ/OpenITC (Got it from this offer, no longer available) 2. 2 x BuyVM (The famous 15USD per year offer, normally out of stock, and there is actually a website dedicated to check if they are in stock or not here) 3. 1 x Quickweb Supa VZ1 (Description here) 4. 1 x Nix Communications (Got it from this offer, seems sold out at one point and more stock was added later on but it seems it is out of stock again) 5. 1 x IPAP.Co (Got it from this offer,  it is still being set up at the time writing, and reviews won’t be available until it is fully set up). In the next few weeks, I will be writing reviews for each and Read More

So, here comes the first post that I have made on this blog, which is running on a Xen VPS with 96MB of RAM. The first question is why did I do it? Inspired by LowEndBox.com, put it simply. I have purchased no less than 5 VPSes from various promotions from this popular site before I noticed that it is literally a one-man blog running on 80MB of RAM! As per here, the website receives about 45k of pageviews daily. (Edit: LowEndAdmin has kindly pointed out to me that as per here, pageview for LEB is about 250K per month, less than 10k per day, thanks LEA!) Therefore, as curious man as I have always been, I decide to try it myself and when I saw this offer listed on the LEB website, I decide to give it a try. Quite frankly speaking, the process of running a web server Read More
