Hosting Websites on Bare Minimum VPS/Dedicated Servers

Bergen Hosting – $4.99 OpenVZ 64MB VPS

Tags: , , Date/Time: March 3, 2009 @ 1:12 am

Update Jan 2010: The website appears to be empty and I do not think the company is trading/providing service anymore.

Update Feb 2010: The website is now back but not offering VPS anymore. I’ll stop tracking here.

Bergen Hosting Via this WHT offer, there’s a low end budget VPS on offer at Bergen Hosting. For $4.99 per month you will get:

  • 64MB guaranteed/80MB burstable memory
  • 5GB storage
  • 25GB/month data transfer
  • OpenVZ

Traceroute of their website goes to Future Hosting’s data center at Washington DC. Funny that it says “80MB swap” on their Mini VPS page, although on their plan page they are clearly offering OpenVZ based product.

Update: Looks like the latest offer has moved onto Xen platform.

    We actually decided to hop over to Xen right after we posted that – we are indeed using Xen for this now.

    Hi Ken,

    I think it would be a good idea to clearly state what virtualization technology you are using on your website. Don’t you think?

Some notes on commenting on LowEndBox:

  • Do not use LowEndBox for support issues. Go to your hosting provider and issue a ticket there. Coming here saying "my VPS is down, what do I do?!" will only have your comments removed.
  • Akismet is used for spam detection. Quoting webhostingtalk.com URL seems to get binned consistently here, but I do peek into the spam box frequently to publish those comments.
