If you don't immediately see the specs needed, I generally just click the order button instead of reading all around forever, because when you click the order button, you can quickly see the configurable options (ie, operating system ubuntu). A Few “Potential” Hosts to Get You Headed in the Right Direction: (in no particular order) This is by no means an exhaustive list it only took me about 30 minutes to compile it from a simple google search, and then to check the specs for each one. At the time I made this list, I had personally used some of these hosts, but there are also several that I hadn't ever personally used, and thus, I CANNOT vouche for, nor specifically recommend ANY hosting company on this list. WARNING #2: This list is ABSOLUTELY NOT AN ENDORSEMENT, nor even a suggestion for ANY host on it. Do a little research and check to make sure the specs (discussed in the section above this one “VPS Hosting Requirements”) still match up. However, that all may have changed since then. at the time I added any of the individual hosting companies below to this list, they DID have the specs we needed, and they DID have at least one cheap vps option at or under $10 per month. Sometimes I add hosting companies to it, but I will very, very rarely (if ever) remove hosting companies from it. If you don't need multiple ip's then that's obviously not an issue for you, but if you do need multiple ip's, just be sure to check the host's extra ip policy prior to ordering.īONUS: “POTENTIAL” VPS HOST LIST THESE WARNINGS BELOW ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT Google's paid results (the text ads on the right-hand side of the page) often give good results too, but I've noticed lately that most of the hosting companies that show up in those paid results have really strict policies regarding adding “extra” ip addresses. And although most hosts do offer Ubuntu OS's, you could also try “unmanaged” + “vps” + “ubuntu”: You can also just use the same search strings on google especially if you're looking for ip's from a specific place, (UK for example, or Dallas) try (“unmanaged” + “vps” + “UK” + “data center”) or (“unmanaged” + “vps” + “dallas” + “data center”). A good search string to start with might be “unmanaged” + “vps”. Note: These guys are NOT typically looking to rent their vps's out for use as proxies, so try to be discreet. Below is a link is to a vps hosting forum where vps hosting companies go to post special deals for developers, and it's a great place to start your search. Typically the cheapest one is all that you will need (which is roughly 128Meg RAM, & 100GB bandwidth). These are the Two Specs Needed: #1 – Unmanaged Linux VPS (w/ root access) #2 – Has option to choose Ubuntu as the Operating System -Any version of Ubuntu is fine but, if possible: I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY Recommend Ubuntu 8.04 Most VPS hosting companies will have several versions of the same VPS, with varying amounts of RAM & Bandwidth. You need a host that specifically rents VPS's (and even more specifically, unmanaged vps's). Please understand that VPS hosting companies are different than website hosting companies.

Extra ip's on the same VPS are generally between about $1 to $2 per month, per ip address. Typically the cheapest versions of these can be found for less than about $10 per month, and will already have one private ip address already assigned to it.

VPS HOSTING REQUIREMENTS The first step is to find yourself a bare-bones Unmanaged Virtual Private Server (VPS) Account, which will likely be the most time-consuming part of this entire process.
