Multiple clients, owncloud, mail and multiple php versions - VPS, or is reseller account enough??
Currently with a large shared account with NC. I have absolutely no complain about their services but one of my client needs to have multiple php version for their domain.
Requirements & specs
Asia friendly, all of the users are in Asia
1 Multiple clients, less than 10, very small user base (less than 300). Not running heavy resource plugins
2 Multiple PHP version in same domain for one of the client.
The client is running wordpress with minimal plugins (Event Calendar) php 5.6 is OK and a
custom PHP app which requires 5.3
3 Owncloud , I just realized that a lot of hosts block Owncloud
4 Mail - I'll probably get one mail hosting during black friday
I have a shared hosting for a client on buyshared, and I've shortlisted their KVM but since I've never done VPS/KVM I'm looking for some recommendations on resellers and other hosts that could work with my requirement.
Issue with VPS
Never done one. I have done websites running on Ubuntu server and Centos 5, but I need multiple php for one domain and I don't know how to achieve this on a VPS.
I know all of my clients personally so I don't really need cpanel or WHM but it'll be nice to have just in case.
GUI and remote access. Is there a guide for running both on buyVM?

Even though you say you are a newbie, I think you may be ready for a VPS. It brings better control for the sites you host. (I jumped on the VPS bandwagon recently, and so far I am glad I did it).
For multiple PHP versions, OpenLiteSpeed lets you set PHP versions by domain. There is a neat script by @cyberpersons (CyberPanel) that automates the initial install. OLS comes with a web panel so you are not fidgeting with the command line for basic web server commands.
And yes, BuyVM is a good choice. Haven't heard anything but good feedback about @Francisco
That's not hard, we have many people that just install Ubuntu's Desktop edition on their VPS and have at it

I think after a few months on LET I'm pretty convinced that VPS is the way forward even for a small time dev like me. Might even be able to finally offer something like a simple SAAS minus the initial cost. I just have to start dipping my toes in VPS to play with on black friday.
Thanks for the encouragement and the OpenLiteSpeed tip.
and let us know if you run into any issue.
Been going through a few tutorials so far. Downloading Virtual Box as I'm typing this
.
Finally someone using his/her own computer as dev box for learning purpose, rather than begging for super super super low vps.
Good luck on your journey @baxic
