Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our VPS hosting. Can't find an answer? Chat with us.
What exactly is a VPS?
A Virtual Private Server is your own slice of a physical server with guaranteed resources. Unlike shared hosting where everyone fights for the same CPU and RAM, your VPS allocation is exclusively yours. You get root access to install whatever you want and configure it however you like.
Do I need Linux experience?
Basic command-line knowledge helps (cd, ls, apt/yum), but you don't need to be an expert. Our control panel handles common tasks like rebooting and reinstalling the OS. For anything else, there are countless tutorials online, and our support team can point you in the right direction.
How fast is deployment?
Nearly instant. Once payment confirms, your VPS is automatically provisioned. You'll get your IP and root credentials via email within minutes. Select your OS from the control panel and you're live.
Why not just get a $5 VPS elsewhere?
Cheap VPS providers often oversell. Your "2GB RAM" competes with dozens of other oversold instances. We guarantee your resources. Our infrastructure uses enterprise NVMe SSDs (not spinning disks), includes real DDoS protection, and you get actual human support.
Can I upgrade later?
Yes. Upgrade to a higher tier anytime from your client portal - it typically takes effect within minutes. Need custom resources beyond our standard plans? Contact sales for a custom configuration.
Is Windows available?
We focus on Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Rocky, Alma, Fedora). Windows VPS requires additional licensing - contact our sales team for pricing and availability.
Is this managed or unmanaged?
Our standard VPS is unmanaged - you have full root access and responsibility. We handle hardware, network, and hypervisor. You manage your OS, apps, and security. Need managed support? Ask about our managed VPS add-on.
What if I get DDoS attacked?
All plans include automatic DDoS protection up to 60Gbps. Attacks are filtered at the network edge before reaching your server. It's always-on, requires no configuration, and for most attacks you won't even notice.
