Hello,
a few days ago I got a nice little mail from ionos where I run some VPSs that due to WebPros International GmbH massively hiking their prices they have no other option but to transfer down these price hikes.
Since that would mean a 5-fold price increase for my contracts, I am looking for other hosting providers. The service I need the most is just some super small VPS with a static IP to tunnel all my dynDNS-traffic through so that I can have a static IP linked to my domain and the sorts. Currently I am paying 1EUR per month.
I know that my question probably super basic and that I could just move to any other provider. I just wanted to ask if any of you could (dis-)recommend any providers due to positive or negative experiences?
many thanks in advace and have a pleasant thursday!

Hetzner has been solid for me ( and eu based if that is relevant for you ).
Another happy Hetzner customer here. ~10 years so far, both for business and for personal use. 1€/month won’t happen, but they’re not that expensive either.

Yeah, me too. Two VPSs (one Helsinki, the other Nuremberg) each with a couple of IPs. Been running perfectly for years aside from when I fuck them up.
Another happy Hetzner customer here. They are more than solid.
The only issues I had was with the abysmal performance of the storagebox, but that got better recently.
Layer 7 is also an idea for those seeking storage,but won’t really help OPs case.
I have smallest, $1/mo + VAT Racknerd VPS for exactly this purpose. Even latency from Europe is not so bad at ~130 ms. Didn’t find anything comperable in price in EU. https://lowendbox.com/blog/new-vps-specials-by-racknerd-kvm-vps-in-multiple-locations-from-10-96-year/
+1 LEB
LEB ftw. Seriously almost all the vps deals I’ve gotten over the years has been through LEB.
I am very happy with Netcup. https://www.netcup.com/en/server/vps
The price hike is only if you use Plesk. You can continue using the Ionos VPS for 1€/month as before. I doubt you were using Plesk before as it is an optional feature that is pretty useless.
Well, I got that mail too and I also use a 1€ server of ionos, but the mail only mentioned the price of plesk.
When I looked at the service page plesk wasn’t lizensed. So, are your sure you lizensed plesk? Because my usecase is fairly similar to yours…
Or did I got something wrong?
No, I also got the mail and it stated pretty clearly that they only increase the price of the previously free plesk license to 5€. If you don’t use plesk (aka don’t have a license as you described), the VPS will still cost 1€/mon.
Look on lowendspirit.com. If you can live with ipv6-only you can get a little bit cheaper.
the lowendtalk forums are a goldmine for cheap VPS’
you can usually get a 1core, 1 gig ram, 10g storage vps for $7-12/year
It can sometimes be a good mine, other times you end up with oversold servers that fail to run, constantly crash or is slow as fuck.
You really need to know what kind of server resource limits you’re actually assigned that’s not up for sharing.
Vultr has been pretty good.
vultr is kinda pricey tho
Is it? I just had a basic $5 a month machine so didn’t look too hard at it.
it depends they have some nice cheap vps options but it starts getting overpriced if you go to the ones needed to run heavier services
This is bad news … I also host my Pangolin ingress node on Ionos … Can you let me know what you pick?
I’m quite happy with ProHosting24 for a while now.
