Estimated from fibre distance, not measured from Halifax. Your real figure depends on your connection and route, and lands inside this range.
Choose how the processor is shared
Every class ships the same hardware menu and the same Ubuntu Server 24.04 (LTS) 64-bit image. What changes is how the processor is shared — and the price moves with it.
Availability
Budget friendly
Shared processor time is plenty for a site, a bot or a side project that is idle most of the day.
$49.95USD
per month
ConfigureGeneral purpose
The usual choice
Worth the difference if the box runs something people wait on — a small API, a dashboard used during working hours.
$60.95USD
per month
ConfigureDedicated
High performance
More machine than a small project needs. Sensible only if something on it must never share a core.
$71.95USD
per month
ConfigureBurstable
Burst capable
For work with a definite end: a migration, a scrape, a batch job. Booked by the hour and taken down afterwards.
$0.1380USD
per hour — booked for a window, not subscribed
Book by the hourOutgrowing it is normal and easy to fix — memory, cores and disk all go up on the same server, by hand, usually within the hour.
Where your server runs
All 24 locations cost the same, so pick whichever sits closest to the people who will actually use the server. Choose the region closest to whoever visits the site or uses the bot. For a small server that is usually one country, and picking the right one is the cheapest speed improvement available to you.
