Hurr thurr WF brobocops,

I have come to you for some advice.

Since I travel quiet a lot, and use a laptop as my work computer (hooked up with external screens when I'm home) I never have enough time to run my tools... Rank trackers, SB, AMR etc.

I am looking for a solution where I could run these programs all day.. urr day..

Would you recommend a VPS, or something like a P4 1gb ram dedi server..


Elaboratez please
 


Well it depends entirely on what tools you need to run.

I myself mostly use tools that require huge bandwidth but minimal cpu/ram so i just run a 1GB ram server2003 VPS with unmetered bandwidth.

With the tools you listed you could probably get away with something similar
 
It will also depend on your budget and softwares you will use. Try out a VPS for 1 month. If it fits your need, it's good enough or else get a Dedicated server. For me, I use scrapebox in my newly brought VPS ($15 monthly) with 256 RAM, Windows 2003 server with unmetered bandwidth. It works just fine for me.
 
Great.. Any companies that you guys recommend?

Can't vouch but ran across this recently. Thought for $12/month might be worth looking into.

and this is where the actual hosting company is https://www.hosthop.com/hop/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=0

saw somewhere on one of those they had a low end dedi for $25/month.

Like I said haven't used and don't know of there reliability.

 
id like to know where people are finding unmetered BW windows boxes, cause my search of webhostingtalk turns up not very many, especially unmetered windows.
 
I think you guys are crazy for running with companies to manage your servers, I like to deal 1 on 1 with the owner of a small data center tbh.
