- Is cheap shared hosting worth it??by /u/CrapsAndBlackjack on December 8, 2025 at 9:26 am
I’ve been looking to start a blog using WordPress and will need to get web hosting. After doing some searching, I’ve found shared hosting plans vary in price, as low as $2 or $3 a month all the way up to $8 or $10 a month. Is there really that big of a difference between the $2-$3 plans and the $8-$10? Keep in mind, this will be for one simple WordPress website. It’s not going to need tons of storage, email accounts, or anything of that nature… submitted by /u/CrapsAndBlackjack [link] [comments]
- 1984 is just robbery in terms of network speedby /u/AerieFluffy27182 on December 7, 2025 at 3:59 pm
I decided to use the hoster 1984 as a VPN. Nowhere did it mention network speed, but I still thought 1984 was a reference to the book, not to shitty network speeds. 100 Mbps? Seriously? My grandma’s Wi‑Fi is faster than the VPS internet. Privacy is great, but damn… so what am I supposed to do about this shit? submitted by /u/AerieFluffy27182 [link] [comments]
- Why are container hosts so expensive compared to regular web hosts?by /u/AimlesslyForward on December 7, 2025 at 3:28 pm
I have been looking for a container host where I can run a few smaller projects. Everywhere I look there are plenty of cheap webhosts that provide site hosting and databases for around 10USD/month. …but I can’t find a single one for running containers in the same range that lets me runt 2-3 container apps with persistent data and databases. With DigitalOcean I’m at 15USD just for the base container host, and a minimum of another 15 USD per additional database. Just for comparison SmarterASP provides 3GB RAM, multiple 10GB databases and unlimited websites for 8USD/month. IONOS provides multi site hosting with 500GB storage and 500 MSSQL databases for 11 USD/Month. Is it just that much harder to do containerised hosting? — Also want to clarify, that I currently have my own container hosting using Hetzner (for 4.99), set up using IaC through Terraform and scripting the entire install with Ansible. I can delete my entire server and have it back up in less than 5 minutes using an Azure Devops Pipeline. I run Traefik for reverse proxy, have docker compose for all containers, and have backups to a remote location. I really like Hetzner.. but I’d much rather pay 3x more for someone else to provide that plattform. I just cant find anyone doing it for less than 10x the price. submitted by /u/AimlesslyForward [link] [comments]
- Should I switch VPS to OVHCloud, from Hostinger?by /u/xkashina on December 6, 2025 at 6:55 pm
I’m running a discord-style server on my Hostinger VPS, uptime is pretty good for the last 6 months. I dont think I remember any sudden downtimes except when I tinker with it. For hostinger, I chose the plan that costs 20usd per month (it was 6usd at first which was enticing) 2 Core 8gb ram 100 ssd For almost same specs, OVHCloud is asking 4.20$ 4core 8 gbram 75ssd Is it worth going to OVHCloud for 15 usd discount? Is the uptime and support well? OR does the OVHCloud renews at a bigger price when the first month end? submitted by /u/xkashina [link] [comments]
