Hostinger SG $12/YR ARE YOU KIDDING no wait thats the NAT box, dedi is more but still

SNAPPED IT UP in 2024, still running. Price went up to $14 now. Historical low was $10 during their birthday sale.

🏃 deal snipers keep spreadsheets. Most underrated move is providers that dont do flash sales, just steady fair pricing. No FOMO, no hype, just renew

Is that like a router thing?? I thought VPS meant you get your own ip

Also sorry if this is off topic!! I can delete if needed

No need to delete, Nate! NAT VPS means shared IP, you get port ranges forwarded. Made test order with Hostinger last year to understand the market. Not for production but great for learning. Sent ticket yesterday to one of our own users asking same thing, actually!

For underrated: Vultr tries to be the patient option. We are small, sent ticket response time is usually under two hours. Not the cheapest, not the fastest, but we stay. Cheers!

And thanks @quinnbizz for starting this thread, was good reading!

What was response time? In my country anything over 4 hours for billing and 30 minutes for down node is considered dead provider.

Hostinger ticket SLA is not published. Anyone have data?

Also: has anyone tested their BGP communities in APAC? Article on RIPE suggests small ASNs often lack proper path prepending. https://www.ripe.net

The NAT box is just shared IP its nothing weird

You get port range and the rest is same as normal VPS

I ran wireguard on one for 8 months no issuues

The trick is check if theyr firewall panel actuallly works sometiems its borked

You figure it out he says

Ok so I have been reading this thread for like an hour now and I have to say I tried Hostinger last year because my nephew said it was cheap and I needed something for my crochet pattern website which is very important to me I have over 200 patterns and I had breakfast that day it was oatmeal with blueberries and my cat Mr whiskers sat on the keyboard when I was trying to sign up and the weather was rainy which I hate because it makes my knees hurt and anyway the server worked fine for three months then I moved to InterServer because I saw a bigger thread about them and now I am wondering if that was a mistake because InterServer has been down twice this month and I am losing pattern sales and my cat does not care at all he just sleeps on the router now

I MOVED TO INTERSERVER

Is InterServer good for a small shop? I have maybe 50 visitors a day and I dont want to break anything 😬

I am on a big name now and its $40/month which feels like alot for what I need

Guys anyone got leads on Hostinger reseller program? Margins look thin at $14/yr but if volume is there maybe

Also looked at KnownHost, their NAT plans start at $3.50/mo which is crazy low. Anyone recieved commission payouts from them? 🙏

Bulk order discounts are where the is

your margin is my opportunity

Methinks ye olde server merchants have forgotten whence the profit cometh, for in days of yore one did not seek gold in the sale of the tin itself but rather in the provisioning of support and the management of many small containers upon a single iron beast, wherefore the wise man knoweth that the NAT box, being but a fractional thing, doth multiply beyond reckoning when the herd is great and the feeding trough narrow.

KnownHost $8/mo NAT

The cheapest I seen is €4 from OVHcloud https://www.ovhcloud.com/en/vps/ but they oversell a lot

Hostinger $14 now but I got grandfathered at $12

Definitely staying put. My yearly budget for vps is $50 total and im running 4 boxes

Receive no invoices anymore they just charge paypal

$3/year. 128MB RAM. Pure happiness.
