seriously recommend using serverbeach or softlayer - userscripts.org gets 4M pageviews/mo (including RSS and bots I get 50K dynamic req/hour) on a $200 box from serverbeach.
softlayer is like serverbeach but a little more expensive. they are more automated though - so if you expect to add more hardware, it only a few hours for new boxes to come online.
that said, they are both monthly and have setup fees (not horribly expensive but not like AWS where you can get a server for a few hours)
- SwellJoe 18y agoWe've got boxes at both, and are happy. We also have boxes at theplanet.com. Also happy there. SoftLayer occasionally has stupidly good deals, if you watch out for them. Usually on bigger hardware, though, so if you're looking for sub-$100 it's not the place. But on really big boxes, they have some incredible deals. We rented a quad core, 4GB RAM box, with 2x250GB drives for under $200/month just a couple of months ago.
