How much do you spend on your servers each and every month? (Including any server management plans you have)

I just pay $35 a month for my VPS, manage it myself. It runs all the sites I have at the moment so I'm happy.

I pay around $600 for my 2 servers.

That's quite a lot. A friend of mine runs a file hosting site and has a similar number of servers. He pays a lot more though.

**Gareth** · 07-31-2006, 09:23 AM

$200 per month for mine

**nsvr** · 07-31-2006, 01:06 PM

About $60 for a vps, which worked fine for a while :glare:.

**imported_Edder** · 08-04-2006, 01:23 AM

$110 for a dedicated and $49 for a VPS.

**weblord** · 08-04-2006, 02:15 AM

U.S.$114 for mine.

**BamaStangGuy** · 08-04-2006, 02:15 AM

129 a month

**grandcartel** · 08-04-2006, 02:17 AM

For those of you who've owned a VPS and a Dedicated, what's the difference? I can't justify buying a VPS at the moment, since my $20 reseller works just fine, but I'd like to know my options.

A VPS gives you total control over what software you want to install. Things like mod_security and firewalls can help keep hackers out from my experience.

I like having the freedom of doing what I want with my space without having to worry about "max cpu usage" because I'm allowed to burst to the max CPU usage.

**Malachim** · 08-05-2006, 11:37 AM

About $225 a month for a dedicated.

My friend is paying £50 (about $100) a month for a crappy VPS, but does he listen to me, noooo... :001_rolleyes:

**grandcartel** · 08-05-2006, 08:13 PM

I just grabbe a dedicated yesterday that I got a KILLER deal on. I'm going to end up paying $150 a month.
