@scottalanmiller Yeah, I am not sure how big I want to make this. I think I want to stick to pure VPS providers for now.
Then no Amazon.

Who else should I add that is purely VPS?
I only deal with RS, DO and Vultr so not sure.

@scottalanmiller I guess it really comes down to 2 providers.....
RackSpace is super expensive by the way

RackSpace is super expensive but the way
They also do a lot that the others do not. Load balancers, custom firewalls, database hosting, CDN, etc.

Don't you pay for all of that? I wanted to have 1 server on RS, and they wanted $100/month...

Which is SO weird because we have single servers there that are $15.

Yes but being ABLE to pay for things is a pretty big deal compared to not being able to get them at all.

LOL. But that's on new ones. I can spin it up right now.
I see a $50 minimum on "managed service accounts", but only $50, not $100.

@scottalanmiller you have to add on the cost of the VM too

If it's $50 + VM (which is so weird) it's still only $65.

Linode is who we were forgetting. Gotta test them out, too.

Going to update this for Amazon Lightsail, and make any needed changes.
