Linux VPS Hosting

If you have a site that gets a lot of traffic, or at least, is expected to generate a lot of traffic, then you might want to consider getting a Linux VPS hosting package. A Linux VPS hosting package is also one of your best options if you want more control over the things that are installed on the server where your website is hosted at.

Linux VPS stands for a virtual private server running on a Linux system. A virtual private server is a virtual server hosted on a physical server. A server is virtual if it runs in a host computer’s memory. The host computer, in turn, can run a few other virtual servers.

Managed Linux VPS Hosting is the key to running your site, service, or business - whether you have a website, run software, or host files, a Linux VPS provides you with the ability to do all of that at the same time, with no limitations other than resources. With our Linux VPSes being fully managed, you also receive the convenience of having a team of Linux experts ready to assist you with any request that you might have.

The typical features of our managed Linux VPS hosting include the following:

Customer treatment like this is something that you will not find anywhere else.

We are also the only Managed Linux VPS hosting provider that grants customers full root access to their Linux VPS, with or without a control panel, while still providing the Fully Managed Linux  support that our customers love. This gives you complete control over everything on your Linux server (much like a dedicated server) while still giving you the security and confidence to do anything, knowing that you have a helping hand to rely on if something goes wrong.

Our Linux VPSes excel at speed and reliability, too. With the latest-generation Intel Xeon processors, DDR4 memory, and Enterprise-Grade NVMe solid-state storage, our Linux VPS’s speed will blow you away. Our data center is located close to the population center of the United States, utilizing several Gigabit and OC3 Tier-1 upstream providers, meaning that your  Linux server’s response times will be lightning-fast for everyone.

Our strict no-upsell strategy ensures that the prices you see are the prices you’ll pay for the Linux VPS that you want. We never hide extra payments or increased rates in fine print, and we don’t change our payment plans for existing customers.
We also never oversell our Linux server’s resources, which means that your server’s resources are available 100% of the time.

Linux is the core software needed for either the LAMP stack or LEMP stack, and we'll help you set up either of those simply with a request to our support team.

The Virtual Private Server (VPS) is an isolated virtual machine on a physical server. It is backed by its own RAM, storage, CPU, and operating system. Linux VPS hosting is mostly used by small and medium businesses expecting high-volume web traffic, a lot of growth, or data-heavy websites, since it ensures faster load times and near 100% uptime.

Linux VPSes provide a lot of flexibility and control - they are the middle ground between a closed-off shared host, and a full-on dedicated server. A Linux VPS balances the attributes of each, providing the modularity and expandability of a shared host, while also providing the control and freedom of a dedicated server.

Because of their virtual nature, it is easy to add or remove storage, RAM, CPUs, and so on. Their modularity also allows for several Linux VPSes to be easily added and removed from the host (physical) server, as well as moving them to other physical servers. This is unlike dedicated servers, which require physical maintenance in order to change the attributes and resources available on them.

Individuals and businesses that want more flexibility with their customization and development options should definitely go for Linux VPS hosting, especially those who are looking to get great performance and service without paying for a dedicated server, which could eat up a huge chunk of the site’s operating budget.

There are many benefits when using a Linux VPS hosting service, including ease of use, increased security, and improved reliability at a lower total cost of ownership. However, for most webmasters, programmers, designers, and developers, the true benefit of a Linux VPS is the flexibility. Each virtual private server is isolated with its own operating environment, which means that you can easily and safely install the operating system that you prefer or need—in this case, Linux—as well as remove or add software and applications easily whenever you want to.

You can also modify the environment of your VPS to suit your performance needs, as well as improve the experience of your site’s users or visitors. Flexibility can be the advantage you need to set you apart from your competitors.

Note that some Linux VPS providers won’t give you full root access to your Linux VPS, in which case you’ll have limited functionality. Be sure to get a Linux VPS where you’ll have full access to the VPS, so you can modify anything you want.

Our Linux servers are built to serve users like you with a premium, high-quality Linux VPS hosting experience that focuses on giving you convenience and transparency above all. You need a high-performance Linux server that can handle the visitors and requests that are being made to your website. It comes down to three main factors: CPU, Storage, and Network. Our CPUs are the latest-generation Intel® Xeon® Gold processors. Their excellent performance lets your Linux server handle many requests simulataneously, process data from requests that are made, and run several services at once with ease.

Storage is make-or-break for a website's performance. A fast processor is useless if it's always waiting for data to be loaded from the slow storage. That's why we only pair our high-performance processors with the best enterprise-grade NVMe SSD storage on the market. With read and write speeds in excess of 3 Gigabytes per second, you'll see load times that simply aren't possible with a regular SSD, not to mention spinning hard drives. Storage is the largest bottleneck in a server, and we use the best hardware to give your server the best Linux performance.

Having a high-performance and redundant network setup is also key in serving many visitors reliably. With our redundant 10Gbe uplinks and excellent data center location, we're able to provide your Linux VPS with excellent throughput, all while U.S. visitors enjoy faster response times.

These factors combined make for what we believe is some of the best Linux server hardware available at this price point.
