    Some people like helping others even if there's nothing in it for them. Like icanhazip.com

  I use them and they are great. But I need longer timeout settings.

You can find Frantech servers for as little as $3.50/year here: https://my.frantech.ca/aff.php?aff=3460 https://my.frantech.ca/aff.php?aff=3460 This is the parent company of BuyVM. They have a very good reputation, but their stock goes up and down throughout the month. If you want a specific data-center location, wait until the first of the month when stock replenishes.

  The servers at this affiliate link start at $3.50/month. Am I missing something? What service is $3.50/year?

    Not sure about $3.5/year, but Hosteon has servers at $16/yr (openvz) and $21/yr. Small companies on LEB have yearly prices occasionally, and frequently they never disable the sign up page for them, for example: $1/month list: https://lowendbox.com/blog/1-vps-1-usd-vps-per-month https://lowendbox.com/blog/1-vps-1-usd-vps-per-month

Vultr
- hereforphone 4y ago
  As I said above I had a bad customer service experience with them. I've used a lot of hosting providers and Vultr was the most ghetto-feeling by far. Back to Digital Ocean for me, or if they stop hosting custom images, I'll try and find another

I bought it from VirMach on Cyber Monday back in 2017. It was a pretty good deal and they've stuck to it. I've barely used the box for anything over the years but it's nice to have. I think you'll still find deals like this on lowendbox occasionally. Original deal: https://lowendbox.com/blog/cyber-monday-virmach-vps-deals-as-low-as-4-year/ https://lowendbox.com/blog/cyber-monday-virmach-vps-deals-as...
