Not all VPS service providers are treated alike. Linode is probably a mid-tier VPS. Their cheapest plan is $20, which is 4x more expensive than Digital Ocean's cheapest plan of $5 a month. I would guess that most of the ultra cheap VPS plans probably won't come with a network engineer to help you.
- slig 13y agoAgreed. If I'm trying something new, or just playing with, I could try a new and cheaper host ($5/m is less than a starbucks coffee where I live). But if I'm running something that pays me money, there's no doubt that I'll choose the best provider. And the best provider, for my requirements, is only $15 more expensive.
